Over The Hill - Alessi's Ark Official Video

[TheNarcMan]

An ex-girlfriend I am still not over tipped me off about your music so it is even more like bittersweet strawberry sun drenched beauty. Your delightful charms and lovely, absurd eccentricities soothe me and I wish you nothing but happiness and fulfillment. Thank you for the art and sonic love. You're doing your tiny part to make the world a better place. XXX!!!

[blobfacethefirst]

Ive proabably veiwed this a bajillion times, but I can never find your album in HMV :(

[milkmilk6]

i found this song thanks to jack wills <3

[bobbiemoonie]

Phantom Funk - Chase the Sun - it sounds quite a lot like it

[IsraelBelo911]

I'm in love!!!!

[purplegirl110294]

I adore this song and can't wait for your second LP! One of the things I love most about independent music is that the musicians really care - surely they're the only ones who are awesome enough to respond personally to comments and type out the chords to their tracks! Thanks for being generally incredible and lots of love from Australia! I'm making it my mission that my broader circle of musical chums are well-versed in awesome English folk!

[therapman0]

you look like a doll, nice song

[Screwthatcloud]

hahah, @ 1.01 made me laugh ^^ nice video + song!

Hi Alessi,

I saw you at performing at the Colston Hall, Bristol last night, and you were incredible! I'd heard of you before, but I'd never listened to your music. It was absolutely breathtaking and I will definitely be buying your album :) Also, this is possibly the wrong place to ask, but could you possibly send me with chords for Constellations? :)

[VintageQueen18]

Really like this song! So pretty - just wondering, i recognise the beginning of the song from somewhere, possible another song i liked... its really annoying me that i cant figure it out!

Did you use another song in the background of this one (even just at the beginning?) Would love to know which one.

Thanks. :)

[freakoftwilight900]

sounds kind of like "trouble is a friend" by lenka..but idk.

[alessisark]

@VintageQueen18 Hello there! we didn't use another song at the beginning of this one...hmmm...wonder what it is that reminds you of...glad you like it though! :)

[AdamRyanKirkwood]

My favourite from her is definitley 'Asteroids Collide'.

[squagalot]

[JamieeTheGreat]

This is such a warm, beautiful song =D

Allesi, you are simply lovely

x

[mattdamonlover110]

I want the lyrics to this song, where can I find it??

[alessisark]

here they are...

Once we get over the hill

we'll find a library

i like the bird book best but you can choose from a variety

and if you shake the book really fierce

out will fly a note from me

i know we'll get there eventually but i'm english so bear with me.

i love you.

[alessisark]

we feed ducks in the local park and eat ice cream

get all jittery,

not from the sugar in the dessert itself but from what you do to me

i want us to be sewn together on a detailed embroidery

so the distance and the water between won't keep you away from me

i love you.

[alessisark]

All the rivers, oceans and lakes try to wash you on a shore faraway

and all the miles and the months that we wait, i packed my suitcase, i'm here to stay

I will walk cross vast miles of sand to keep wrapped up in your hands

it's just a shame that from the very beginning you've always been her man

i love you

glad you like the song!!

[mattdamonlover110]

:D Thanks so much, I've been trying so hard to find them. I live in the US, when do you think your new album will be available on itunes here. I can only get your EP and I realllllly want this song. :D

x

[alessisark]

you're very welcome! i'm not yet sure of the release date for the u.s but i'll keep you in the loop!! hopefully soon!

[Cyanide4Paris]

[OhThatsSplendid]

[jonboy85]
