Mezanmi (pronounced ‘mes amis’) is the new mantle of Newcastle-born, London-based artist and composer Fran O’Hanlon. His debut album, 'Always Upwards', is released on 22nd November 2024.
Having previously released music under the name AJIMAL, on 'Always Upwards', O’Hanlon enters a new era, with his ambient folk and contemporary classical sound taking on an increasingly electronic and experimental edge. His distinctive vocals now elevated by cinematic string arrangements, stirring rhythms and ethereal synths. A continuation of his collaboration with double-Grammy Award-winning producer and engineer Guy Massey, the album features a number of collaborations with artists and musicians from across the worlds of electronic, folk, and contemporary classical music.
O’Hanlon has toured and performed extensively across the UK and Europe, including live dates supporting Bernard Butler & Jessie Buckley, Eydís Evensen, Lucy Rose, Katy Kirby, Van Morrison, Loney Dear and Sandrayati.

Mezanmi - All I Am and Am Not (Lyric Video)

Artwork by Manu Toro
Lyrics:
Now and then,
It catches me off guard
In still moments
Unsure where to turn;
Of what I’m worth
If I dare open my mouth
These words that sputter out
Would litter the earth
Pale falsehoods at best
All my truths at worst
Think bigger and beyond
Think larger than just me or now or this;
The monster that it is
In a fraction of a second
It will have slipped away
In the dust of today
Fickle and fey, it flitters away
And leaves me. Reveals me.
The real me.
And all I am and am not...

Une saisissante chanson électro exploratoire qui devrait ravir les fans de Son Lux ou de Woodkid pour son esthétisme sonore exceptionnel. L'approche vocale masculine extrêmement théâtrale rappelle vaguement l'intensité d'Antony ans the Johnsons pour la charge émotionnelle qui en émane. Une œuvre absolument remarquable! 〰 A striking, exploratory electro song that should delight fans of Son Lux or Woodkid for its exceptional sonic aesthetics. The extremely theatrical male vocal approach is vaguely reminiscent of the intensity of Antony ans the Johnsons for its emotional charge. An absolutely remarkable work!
Thank you
Legal immigration is absolutely fine but don’t forget the people who have worked hard all their life ( me) to find they are forgotten when it comes to housing NHS treatment and so many other things. My daughter works as a decision worker for the government and is so unbelievably stressed at what she has to decide wether someone can come in she looks to conscience and hopes she does the right thing but it’s so hard. Don’t just think because you are British that people of different nationality don’t feel the same as indigenous people do.when you sign to become a British citizen you believe you are. You may have a different language or religion but you signed up up to the British way of life.
Hi Diane, That’s a really tough job your daughter has and can imagine it’s extremely stressful making those decisions. There are definitely problems with getting access to services and there are skills shortages across the NHS and other public services but those things are not the fault of migrants; migrants contribute more to the economy than they take and without them those services couldn’t run. I think we have to be very careful not to blame migrants for our economic problems when there are massive wage disparities between the poorest and the (very few) richest in society and chronic underfunding of public services and the welfare system.
@@myfriendsmezanmi Hi thanks for the comment I sorry if you thought I was blaming immigrants .My mom and dad were both immigrants so I know all about the tensions that brings from being brought up in a society where not everyone is happy you are here, but, they came to Britain legally and excepted they would have to work hard and do all the mundane things like pay taxes work inter grate and because of that they were shown great friendship and love from their fellow neighbours. I Don’t want to see British people grow to hate other nationalities because of illegal immigrants . Immigration has been great for Britain I’m proof of that, but there has to line drawn somewhere. Genuine people who are victimised in their own country of course should be allowed to live here and I believe that the majority of British people believe that as well I just don’t want people to be against other nationalities because they feel they are coming second.it’s a very sad world we live in today let’s pray to god it gets better .
This was so sweet Dr Fran! It is such a beautiful video with a beautiful message. Truly inspiring and heartfelt
Wow
