    'Break It To You Gently', taken from Camera Obscura's 4AD Session.
    The five-track session was filmed in the band's hometown of Glasgow, at the Tron Theatre, whose 16th century clock tower is one of the city's most recognisable landmarks.
    Directed by seasoned 4AD Session collaborators Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, the pair knew exactly how best to present cuts from the act's most recent album, 'Desire Lines', released earlier this year -
    "The idea behind the session was pure and simple - Camera Obscura are a perfect band, they record their songs all playing live together and there's a beautiful, unblemished chemistry in that unity."
    Shot as the band were about to head off on a US tour, Tracyanne was heavily pregnant at the time, with her bump growing over the shoot as the baby re-positioned. For the session Iain and Jane made a large backdrop of the silvery tree-scape from the album cover and then set the band in front.

    Love this song: it might be a song from 2013 but it somehow transports me back to the early 80s. Beautiful and evocative.

      audio01 haha you made me come back and listen to it and maybe you're right, the bass could probably be a bit more present in the mix, as well as some drum eq'ing. idk

    • @audio01

      The drums (to me) are ok, the bass, yes, too weak... I listened to other songs of the same session and the guitar levels are somewhat off (the "lead" guitar is low). Just like this song, the melody (made by the keyboard in this case) can barely be heard! In my opinion, this session was mixed by someone who didn't know the songs. It's a shame. Anyways, it's a pleasure to watch them play.

    Break It To You Gently
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    You had the office before you had the business
    You had the ring before you found the girl
    If it were up to you would she be suffering still?
    You say your arms ache from the weight of your mistakes
    You're the keeper of the doomsday clock
    Did I get that wrong?
    Little darling, I try
    Oh at least I look on the bright side
    I'll break it to you gently
    Break it to you gently
    With their 45s from 82 and the looks that say
    I'm cooler than you
    They hide behind boxing fists and arrogance
    I got nothing, nothing, nothing to say
    About the way you spend your day
    You rest your head on your hands.
    would you let it slip away?
    Little darling, I try
    Oh at least I look on the bright side
    I'll break it to you gently
    Break it to you gently
    Little darling I try
    Oh at least I look on the bright side
    I'll break it to you gently
    Break it to you gently
    Little darling, I try
    Oh at least I look on the bright side
    I'll break it to you gently
    Break it to you gently
    Little darling, I try
    Oh at least I look on the bright side
    I'll break it to you gently
    Break it to you gently
    I'll Break it to you gently
