Shine your light Shine your light Let the beat take hold of your soul Shine your light There's billions of smiles I will never really know So blessings to me friends and blessings to mu foes Because we all have it inside The essence of life Something that connects us beyond True or untrue Let your heart guide you Goodness sits inside of you Above you in front of you in behind you Tangled and intertwined into space time All the loss all the gain All the pain All the love and All the suffering Well we suffered of the suffering Suffered of the sorrow and the pain There's a time to keep going There is a time to start again Now that we've been to the mountain To the place where we seen space bend We been drinking from the fountain We made time we friend We made time our friend Something that connects us beyond time Shine your light bright spark Follow your dreams Shine your light bright spark Things are never as they seem Shine your light bright spark Follow your heart Shine your light bright spark Follow the artist's path All the love shared All the tears shed All the mistakes made The lessons learned The words and the kindness All the loss All the gain All the pain All the love and All the suffering Shine your light Shine your light

Come on my tribe Poets and the chanters Come on my tribe Drummers and the dancers Come on my tribe We know what to do for sure This is what we're here for Nothing is new under thsun Under the sun in revoluition And the silver moon that is rising soon Is pause for meditiation Tonight is the start of today The night is the start of the day This night is the start of this day The night is the start of the day Clocks they are moving to the mean time We love to move with the right time We love to move with the nice time We got the moves for the right time Now we're going faster than we've ever seen Now it's getting hotter than it's ever been There is confusion of progress with technology Everyone wants out of this reality Tonight is the start of today The night is the start of the day This night is the start of this day The night is the start of the day

Living for today (Aldubb Mix) 04:29
lyrics

The sun soothes my sorrow As the ocean washes you away I'm not running towards tomorrow Baby I'm living for today Dancing alone in faraway lands I heard the call deep in my soul And the wind brought me Where I was meant to be Baby I'm living for today Still I'm hearing chants in the streets Whispers of your name still haunts my dreams Time is passed now it seems I'm going to keep my head up high You cast a spell on me Waking up from this fantasy It's time to break free I can see it clearly I'm going to focus on me Swimming in the deep blue sea Swimming in the deep blue Swimming in the deep blue sea The sun soothes my sorrow As the ocean washes you away I'm not running towards tomorrow Baby I'm living for today Walking away with storms in my eyes Rain in my aura and you on my mind I, I'm going to keep my head up high I'm going to keep my head up high You cast a spell on me Waking up from this fantasy It's time to break free I can see it clearly I'm going to focus on me Swimming in the deep blue sea Swimming in the deep blue Swimming in the deep blue sea Swimming in the deep blue sea Swimming in the deep blue Swimming in the deep blue sea

What a la la There is a place you say A world away from here There is a place you say Very close, so very near And if I should look where you glance I might find myself surprised To find out I've been standing here all along Right at the gates of paradise And you got me addicted to your Love of every living being And now were are Rocking in this world There is a time you say A time I've known before There is a time you say Running right straight through that same door And there's people living there too Even right here on the same street How they have been living here too Ghosts and strangers Friends we greet And you got me Addicted to your Love of every living being And now were are Rocking in this world Yes we are Rocking in this world Yes we are Rocking in this world Yes we are Loving in this world Living in this world

Lately (Reggae Version) 03:59

Lately I've only had hunger for cigarette and coffee Been howling to the moon Sleeping in daily Wondering if peace is in lately Critically thinking about existing The sun is calling me back walking the line Between life and death The two dance together with every breath With every breath There's magic in the sound Magic all around Get lost get found Hit the ground struggle back up Find your feet The beat keeps me ticking I'm an aspiring magician on a mission With every breath Lately I only have hunger for cigarettes and coffee Been howling to the moon Sleeping in daily Wondering if peace is in lately Am I over thinking about existing The sun is calling me back walking the line Between life and death The two dance together with every breath With every breath Pain and pleasure Pain and pleasure Pain and pleasure Pain and pleasure Light as a feather Heavy as a stone Calm as a lake Wild as a storm Lately Pain and pleasure Lately Pain and pleasure With every breath

I am like the water flowing Let the river take me I am like the wind a blowing Sets me free I am like fire burning I won't give in easy I can only seek what's true I'm only guessing too And if I knew the truth were true Then life would be so very blue Cos knowing all is much to call If you knew the truth were true Reality sings its song You need to be strong in his world gone wrong I've been brave but crave to be free I've been brave like the birds and bees It's my birthright you see You need to be strong in the world gone wrong Be strong in the world gone wrong We have not woven the web of life We are but one thread We are not treading gently on the world I am like the water flowing Let the river take me I am like the wind a blowing Sets me free I am like fire burning I won't give in easy Fire in my belly when things are unjust Fire in my belly turns everything to dust Fire is my ally my dear old friend Let the fire burn inside of me until the very end Till the very end What we do to the web We do to ourselves We are but one thread We are but one thread

Rocking in Glorious Times 03:27
lyrics

Let me ask you about tolerance How come it only applies to the common ones Let me ask you about tolerance Uh-huh Let me ask you about tolerance How come it only applies to the poor ones? Ask you about tolerance What happened to you All the money And the control And the power thing What happened to you? We were holding down the beat through the dark days Eating bitter knowing this will pass away This road is high and dangerous But I know when we get though this We'll be Rocking in glorious times Rocking Rocking in glorious times Rocking in glorious times Rocking Rocking in glorious times Let me ask you about tolerance How come it only applies to the common ones Let me ask you about tolerance Uh-huh Let me ask you about tolerance How come it only applies to the poor ones? Ask you about tolerance We were holding down the beat through the dark days Eating bitter knowing this will pass away This road High and dangerous And I know when we get though this We'll be Rocking in glorious times Rocking Rocking in glorious times Rocking in glorious times Rocking Rocking in glorious times

about

Reflective, shimmering, and poetic, The Night is the Start of the Day moves from dubby spoken word to poppy reggae to thumping Afrobeat-tinged rockers.

Featuring five songs from Beansidhe and three from Jah Seal,
the bittersweet theme of time winds through this album: time and space, time and memory, and "something that connects us beyond time".

The opener Goodness (Aldubb Mix) features Galway artist Beansidhe and sets the tone of the album: remembering the goodness and kindness amidst the sorrow and the pain.

Softly spoken and lyrically militant, Beansidhe's One Thread draws on the old warnings that our destinies are interwoven. Here, we get a classic 45" disco mix with the original back to back with the dub version. 'Lately' bubbles into cheerful acceptance of life's pains and pleasures. "Living for Today' is a story of return, banishing sorrows and finding purpose.

From Jah Seal comes the bluesy 'Love of Every Living Being', about the discovery of the parallel worlds: "There is a time you say, running right straight through this same door". Title track The Night is the Start of the Day takes us face to face with our unhappy modern world: "Everyone wants out of this reality". It's a companion piece to Atlantic West Coast Vibration, which shares the summery feeling of Love of Every Living Being.

A soundtrack for road trips and sunset sessions... big shout to DJ Dribbler at Pikes Ibiza who has been running these tunes last summer! This is the fourth album from the Irieland production team of Jah Seal and Aldubb.

Singers and players: Jah Seal, Beansidhe, FRYA, Nigel McGinley, Aldubb.
Recorded in Westport. Mixed and mastered at Planet Earth Studios, Berlin.

General release from 1 March 2024. Find details at irieland.co
