Record Tracklist

  1. U Make Me Feel -:-- / 03:55

Everyday I can see we’re going round
In a circle covering the same ground
Take a trip, take a trip just you and me
If we’re together who knows what we will see
Don’t you know that we have got to make the time
Now is what matters and that is the bottom line
All I want, all I want to do is get high

You make me feel that I just stepped into the light
You make me feel that I can make it through the night
You make me feel that I’m alive
And when I’m with you I feel high
And when I’m with you I feel high

Take a trip, take a trip just me and you
Underneath, underneath the big blue
Take your time, you take all the time you want
Where we’re going I don’t think we’ll think a lot
On the grass, throwing stones into the stream
Ghettoblaster tuning into Al Green
All I want, all I want to do is get by

And you make me feel that I just stepped into the light
You make me feel that I can make it through the night
You make me feel that I’m alive
And when I’m with you I feel high
And when I’m with you I feel high

Sit and watch, sit and watch the water run
Underneath, underneath the hot sun
Is it me or are we just distracted by
All the problems that one day will pass us by
If you see, if you see the way to go
Won’t you tell me ’cause sometimes I don’t know
All I want, all I want to do is get high

Reviews

FATEA MAGAZINE UK | ALBUM REVIEW - Reassuringly optimistic and beautifully played, The 4 Of Us "Sugar Island".
-----
HOT PRESS | ALBUM REVIEW - Intricate arrangements, skilful lyric writing, and as we have come to expect from The 4 Of Us, the songs are imbued with considerable melodic flair. Excellent.
-----
SUNDAY TIMES | ALBUM REVIEW - Sugar Island is one of several landmarks referenced by the brothers in songs such as Going South and Hometown on the Border, the latter's mention of 'soldiers tapping their heels' being especially evocative.
-----
GIGGING NI | LIVE REVIEW - Theirs is a symbiotic relationship – and MAN can they read a room!
-----
THE HERALD | ALBUM REVIEW - Melodic songs with a tender core and barbwire emotive edge.
-----
MAIL ON SUNDAY | ALBUM REVIEW - Brothers Declan and Brendan Murphy reflect on their childhoods ... Given that they were raised in Newry, the spectre of the northern conflict is omnipresent
-----
GIGGING NI | LIVE REVIEW - 'A finely tuned and flawless show from two accomplished performers who are perfectly in tune with each other' - GiggingNI | LYRIC THEATRE, Belfast
-----
IRISH TIMES - Sugar Island ALBUM REVIEW 4/5 - Border boys in troubled times | ‘Rational, perceptive pop/folk of the highest order’
