- a song about feeling like a useless spec whilst watching the world burn dowN AROUND YOU. (fun !!)
lyrics:
One night I had a dream
that everything wasn't as bad as it seems
now I just wanna go back
Next day, I looked around
about as helpful as the dirt on the ground
now I just wanna go back
My guard is down and I feel pathetic
The world's gone mad and I just don't get it
I can't even try
The TV's on but I just see static
and everything, feels so problematic
so I'll cry 'til you pull the wool back over my eyes
Two shots, into the crowd
it all goes over my head like a cloud
now I just wanna go back
Maybe this is deja vu
Maybe I can't see the fun
Maybe it's just been a shit year for everyone
Maybe I'm a coward being cryptic
Or maybe this is all apocalyptic
(chorus)
Maybe this is turbulence
Maybe it'll come and go
Maybe it's a secret that we can only dream to know
Maybe it's all there for us to ignore
or maybe I just need to learn to smile more
Maybe this is deja vu
Maybe I can't see the fun
Maybe it's just been a shit year for everyone
Maybe I'm a coward being cryptic
Or maybe this is all apocalyptic
(chorus)

use me as a “ORLA PLS I NEED THIS OFFICIALLY RELEASED” button
Was drawn back to this song with everything that's been going on lately. This feels fitting for 2020 too. Orla's music is so comforting.
Pandemic anthem

😂legend haha

Hi dodie:)
ah. thank you thank you x100
I Love both of you sm
You are both so talented
I’m late lol
After 3 years, I still can't get over the fact that this has never been officially released. Still hoping :'(
ugh same, also Red Brick Paradise
2020 is giving this song so much more meaning
who’s here during quarantine thinking this is more relevant than ever
i could listen to this for hours. the lyrics are TOO REAL. but the sound is just so mellow and cool i love it.
BringOnTheRainxx3 I love your profile picture 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈✌👏♒💕💕😘👌
You have such a 'clear' voice. Not sure how to describe it how it makes sense haha. Lovely voice and sing
Song*

i listen to this, grey, and imposter all the time bc they regularly get stuck in my head; i adore them so much! still holding out hope that maybe someday they'll get studio versions 💗
I woke up this morning after not having heard this in like 6 months, singing every word! How applicable in 2020 with everything that’s happening, so comforting 💕👏🏼
"maybe its just been a shit year for everyone" is really a quarantine mood
Love the song and also really love how this was filmed/edited!
"maybe it's been a shit year for everyone" Well, it defiantly has been for me. But this song is amazing! Thanks Orla
GINGER GIRL HAS THE GROOVY BLUES ❤️
I think this may be one of my favourite songs of yours, the lyrics are so clever. Love the line 'maybe I'm a coward being cryptic or maybe this is all apocalyptic' ! X
hits different in 2020 :,(
yeah, this is a winner.
this hits different in quarantine
I love this song because it's such a relatable feeling but I also hate how true-to-life this song is because there's always something going on that makes me feel this way. #justiceforgeorgefloyd
How are you not famous yet.
this just hits harder every year that goes by
FOREVER COMING BACK FOR THIS GEM
im obsessed with this song
yas! its now a go to song for me :D
Feels like a very relevant song atm 😝
more relevant than ever, never too late to release :'(
I love this and for a 2016 post it's way too much of a 2020 mood tbh
2016 was pretty bad...this song was a little spark in this thunderstorm...thank you❤️
i have shivers im so in love with this orla !!
just
WOW
you are wonderful
I actually know who you are.
I actually know who you are
Emma!
This is some 60fps musical goodness 👌
This song feels so right for times like these - big lockdown feels
This is exactly what I needed to hear. This is beautiful. Thank you.
I still haven’t stopped coming back here... please put this on Spotify ;-;
this is one of my all time favourites from u
this hits different during this pandemic, honestly
Love how groovy this is. x I
also I'd love tho cover this. If you could add chords that'd be awesome :)
will do tomorrow! keep an eye on my twitter machine will tweet when i've added em
You forgot this? I'd also love to cover :3
I think it's in F, so the intro is: F - Bb - F - Bb / C.
Verse (my guard...) is: F - A - Bb... F - A - Bb... F - A - Bb - A Bb A - G - Bb
Chorus (maybe...) is: D - C - G... D - C - G
And that's about it, watch out for details and enjoy.
Btw: It's fun to play this with an upbeat-groove similar to swing (1, and 3, and 1, and 3).
I saw you in Dublin recently (the night you fell over the speaker) and you performed a song titled 'licking batteries' and it was so amazing -as was your whole performance. I was just wondering when that will be available to listen to because I only got about 10 seconds of it on snapchat and i need the whole thing in my life😂
Years have passed and I still love you so much. Keep on singing Orla
yes yes yes
Dying for this to be on Spotify! Love this song, listen to it constantly
Me listening to this while in quarantine. Ahhh it fits so well. 🏠
This song hits hard in 2020
very relaxing and uplifting at the same time. amazing work.
This song feels so relevant right now.
This is my daily inner dialogue put into a song. Thank you.
For anyone looking for the chords, here it goes:
Verse: F-Dm-Fmaj7-Dm-Bb-Gm-Bb-C
Chorus: (my guard is down..) F-A7-Bb-Gm (some chord I can't figure out but you can play Bbm) F-A7-Dm (can't even try)
F-A7-Bb (again weird chord/Bbm)-Gm-Bb (till you pool....)
Verse
Bridge: (maybe this is turbulence...) Dm-C-G
Then chorus again
Bridge...
And that's all!
When she plays the verse on the piano she starts by playing an F and then the higher note goes to D (to form the Dm) and then to E (to form Fmaj7) and comes back to Dm (I hope you understood my explanation :))
Of course, these aren't the exact chords, but having listened to it like a million times, I think I can say they are quite close to the originals and sound great!
PD: Orla if you ever read just wanted you to know that I love your music and pleaseeee keep on creating and sharing your beautiful art!
PD2: I'm sorry if I have some mistakes, I am Argentinian and English isn't my native language.
Why do I feel like this is perfect for 2020
Orla is a genius
this is so sad, hope you're feeling happy right now.
you're incredible! one of my little reasons to live.
wish you the best!
If ever there was a time to release this ... it's definitely 2020
this feels very now
I needed this! My sadness has been captured. Thank you, Orla! Orla need to be producing people's albums.
I'm so happy I discovered your music so many, many years ago 💜you and your music have helped me through some pretty shitty years... I love ya gal! 💜
Beautiful and touching.You make the world seem all the brighter because of it. Thank you!
2020 in a song
I can't believe you posted this 3 years ago.. This should be a 2020 theme song
Such a good piece of composition. This might be my favourite Orla song.
Orla I’m sure you won’t see this, but if you do, I just wanted to tell you I STILL come back to this video. It feels more real to me every time I listen. Thank you for your art! Thank you for your openness and dedication even all these years ago.
I keep coming back here. I haven't heard music that makes me feel so much for so long.
orla im so mad at you WHY IS THIS NOT ON SPOTIFY you dont understand how passionate i feel about this i physically cannot function without this on spotify
this was so so nice i may have cried a bit
Every song you've written is actually amazing I'm lost for words wow
Orla, I am the type that rarely cries; not because I don't want to, but because it is difficult to let my emotions loose enough. Music is my passion and the few times I have cried have been to music. Right now, I am going through a pivotal moment in my life, and I have many emotions bottled up. I stumbled upon your music today and for some reason, listening to this song moved me so much that I just started crying uncontrollably, and even now as I type, I am still tearing up. I thank you so much for that. I can tell you genuinely feel the music you write and it. You are truly a beautiful soul. Much love.
It makes happy and sad at the same time to see how you're feeling this song
This is so beautiful, and so heart wrenching. Thank you for sharing this, it has helped.

Never ever stop making music. I live not only for your voice but for your lyrics. The lyrics from Roots is still my favorite tattoo that I've got, and I look forward to the day I get more.
Met with a young songwriter/entrepreneur/mover/shaker over coffee couple of months back. Her parents are fans of my early work (yikes) and encouraged the meeting. Anyway, when your name came up her 23 y/o eyes got wide as saucers, "YOU like Orla?" "Of course, love her work!" was my silver-haired reply. She asked if I liked Problematic. I hadn't heard it, I intentionally avoid my favorite young artists' very early works b/c I can't stand my early stuff and don't want to pigeonhole anyone else in a rut where they can never live down their first couple albums. But I listened to this one. Be proud, it's very good.
Please please please please please please please please please please put this one on spotify. IT'S AMAZINGLY ADDICTING!!!!!!!!
A song we all need this year.... Thank you Orla, truly stunning
She does not settle for anything less than superb. Also I am 49 and feel like she expresses here you know. The world is like that more than often.
good one orla, haven't really watched your videos in a while but this song makes me want to rewatch every video you've ever made so thank you. hope you're well x
Although I love everything you do I must say this is my very favorite. It felt you were singing my heart! Thank you for this!
