I feel honoured to have been a part of this

[danburycollins]

This song is pretty much where it began for me. Loved this at first listening - then, you know every other amazing song Orla has done... 😄

Lyrics:
We stand in long lines waitin' for a ticket
To see paradise for just one minute
I thought I saw you walk away
I thought I knew you well
Stay on your good side, say what you wanna hear
Bend over backwards and shut up until I disappear
You'd never change for anyone
But I'm so envious
And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
Then you fall from a height
Oh, we both could die
Oh, what did you have in mind?
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh)
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive
I pay a high price
I give myself away
You'd never think twice to ever do the same
And in the half-light we were glorious
I crumble every time
And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
Then you fall from a height
Oh, we both could die
Oh, what did you have in mind?
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh)
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh)
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh)
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive
I've been wakin' up in the dead of night
Still holdin' on to a flatline
And I'm wakin' up in the dead of night
Still holdin' on, holdin' on
And I'm wakin' up in the dead of night
Still holdin' onto a flatline
And I'm wakin' up in the dead of night
Still holdin' onto a flatline
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh)
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh)
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh)
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive

You should be at Sigrid/Billy Eilish level. I really mean that!

[-Crissi_]

This was so different to the studio version but in a good version, loving it ! (This song is my 2019 jam anyway)

[danak]

[iblame_nargles]

[autumnvanassen]

[lavhayez]

[blofishmusic]

Got an ad for Jacob and dodies here comes the sun after this video. Today sure is a lucky day :)

[magfal]

More talent in this one performance than the collective current top 100 charts.

[moebiusbedroon]

alright finally someone got some production behind this talent

[larahawley]

I don’t think I’ve been this in awe of anyone ever

[MagWasTaken]

Your guitar playing is some of my favorite in the world, I love your style

[samc]

We love you Orla!! Keep being fantastic - you were amazing in Manchester x

[FrankWorldFilms]

Is it just me or is this the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen!? Orla is an increasingly impressive artist, it’s amazing to see her grow from a girl jamming in her bedroom to a fully professional musician. Not only that, but she’s also an incredible role model to a lot of the younger girls that follow her. She’s not afraid to try different things, be passionate and hold this powerful energy over her music. This girl fucking rocks

[abbyb]

I swear, no human can ever hope to be as cool as Orla.

[keskayelisa]

never stop making those faces when u sing they’re the best

[adamisom]

Come tour in the USA! This song is enough on its own for me to buy a ticket right away if you came to Salt Lake City
