BEACH ESCAPE (a song created from The Pathhead Choir Songwriting Project - Here We Are)
Lyrics by Helen Horsfall & The Pathhead Choir Songwriting Group
Music by Sophie Bancroft
Choir arrangement by Tom Lyne
I’m going crazy here, stir crazy here
Escape away from the day-to-day, dry mouth, clenched jaw, tired eyes, back sore
Give me the space, wild wind on face, back to everybody’s childhood place
Escape, let’s escape away to the beach!
Full palette blues, sand golden hues, sundown reds, psychedelic confuse
Flags fly high in a pebbledash sky, castles stand so proud and grand
Escape, let’s escape let’s escape away to the beach!
I’m Here at the Beach!
Driftwood fire burns bright with desire, cavernous caves echo thunderous waves
Sandy towels hide passion fever, salt on the lips, the kisses are quick
Escape, let’s escape let’s escape away to the beach!
Kodak moments, salty doughnuts, sunburnt bodies drinking whisky toddies
Chips get cool, we’ll disappear, back to life with no souvenir
Escape, let’s escape let’s escape away to the beach!
I’m Here at the Beach!
I’m going crazy here, stir crazy here
HERE WE ARE - The Pathhead Choir Songwriting Project
saw Sophie Bancroft guiding a group of Pathhead Choir members aged 60+ to write original songs for The Pathhead Choir to perform. These songs were then arranged and notated for the choir by Pathhead Music Collective musicians and arrangers, rehearsed and performed by The Pathhead Choir, conducted by Sophie and choir co-leader Gina Rae, with Dave Milligan on piano. The choir gave three concerts around the Lothians in June 2023, performing eight new, original pieces.
