lyrics:
I think there’s a piece of me missing
Always see the end in beginnings
And I’d be a terrible gambler
Always seem to lose when I’m winning
I’m water, I’m oil
I’m rotten, I’m spoiled
I’m water, I’m oil
rotten, spoiled
I think there’s a flaw in my system
An error that I can’t escape from
Cuz I never talk, I just ramble
I feel sorry for anyone listening
I’m water, I’m oil
I’m rotten, I’m spoiled
I’m water, I’m oil
I’m rotten, I’m spoiled
And I don’t know why
You remain anchored to my side
Yeah It’s almost like you’ve
been tied to the mast of a ship that’s capsized
All my life
I’ve been trying to get it right
Out of time
Just moments away from the finish line
I’m water, I’m oil
I’m rotten, I’m spoiled
I’m rotten, I’m spoiled
I think you may be the best alternative rock band in a very long time. Growing up in the 90s, there’s a certain vibe or emotion that can’t be replicated. You girls have that swagger about you
thank you so much. that nostalgic sound and ambience is definitely something we're striving for, i'm glad it's coming across. :)
Being a 90’s kid myself. Hearing my youngest daughter listening to this band. I approve 😊
I was gonna say the same about the 90s. Got a very "Jane Siberry and /or Medicine from The Crow soundtrack" feel. Just found these two, and that's the 1st thing that came to mind. It's a vibe for sure. And it's been missing for a while. Fitting that movie is about to be redone.
Flawless
I think it's much harder than people realise, to keep writing and releasing song after song which all sound distinct, but which have enough of a "flavour" to be instantly recognisable as a Softcult song. To keep giving people what they want, without them getting bored of it. I have yet to be even slightly disappointed.
bruh what, all their songs sound the same, only 2 sound remotely distinct
@@Arionid Literally not even close to be true. Typical trolls have nothing original to say
@@Arionid You're not paying enough attention, then.
@@sigma2653 because calling anyone with a different opinion a troll is so original
their songs dont have enough sound and arrangement variety for me to enjoy more than 2, thats me having an opinion, not calling them bad or talentless or whatever buzzword you can think of, unclench bro
@@Arionid You saying all their songs sound the same is basically calling them talentless.
this is so beautiful. i love softcult more and more everyday
thank you so much
They're definitely a breath of fresh air sonically. One of the best new acts imo.
@@rayvantassel9592 agree completely. can't wait to see what they release next.
Y’all literally cannot release one bad song. Every song is so good!
thank you
Chorus: Mr.Kitty - After Dark / Morandi - Angels. Honestly - well done, girls, just beauties.😍 Hello from Russia!
Spoiled was like the late EP reveal!! Well done!!
powerful!
This is some of the best shit since the late 90s. No hyperbole.
Gracias por courage my love y ahora gracias por esto 💕 thanks for courage my love and now thanks for this 💕
💯
kicking and screaming and throwing up!!! I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCHHHHHHHH YOU GUYS I LOVE YOUUU
How do you guys just get better and better? Insane.
thank you so much :) glad you like it
Absolutely thrilled that Softcult will be touring South East Asia soon. Have been listening on repeat!
GOD LOVED ME SO MUCH. EXCELLENT JOB, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. 💕
Captured that self-loathing too well. It hits hard
ahhhhhh yeah :( glad (and sad) it resonates with you. 🖤
Every new song that comes out is consistently a masterpiece. Emotions channeled beautifully and melodically.
thank you so much
Their music is kind of "scary" but beautiful on the other hand. It's almost like....Silent Hill? So far I love it. Canada should be proud of you guys.
It leaves me wanting to hear another 10 minutes of lyrics. An introduction that hits close to home. Sounds great by the way.
thanks so much, really appreciate it :)
Looking for one of my favorite bands Courage My love, I was looking if they had released new songs and well I was disappointed that there was nothing new, I imagined Mercedes and Phoenix retired from music and now working in an office, but I didn't I gave up and kept digging and I found this 😭 thank you, here is an old Courage My Love fan 😭 you have to tell your Courage My Love fans that you have a new band, it is necessary
It's amazing how Softcult manages to change the style of performance from song to song, this track turned out to be especially melancholic and sensitive, I definitely want to follow the work of this group further.
so glad you enjoy it
🔥🔥🤘🔥🔥
Love you women! Ty for your nostalgic musick.
✔️💯🏆
Beautiful 🖤🖤🖤 another one that made me bawl. Just beautiful.
Just… wow. You did it again. 😭 Unbelievably sad but gorgeous. I feel this one deep down.
thank you so much
¿There's people out there who follow these girls from their first band?
I'm still remember listening to courage my love in 2011 or something like that.
Love them from the first time. Congratulations girls, keep doing well :)
Love ya'll so much. "I think there's a flaw in my system, an error that I can't escape from" hits hard. The feeling of being a defective, inadequate, broken person is so terrible. But I know that no one's perfect and we're our own worst critics. Thanks for creating this song and three truly excellent EPs. Your music means a lot to me.
Every time there is a new song im listen over and over again🥹
glad to see canada is putting out solid rock bands again, i remember the 90s when our lady peace was going hard etc. good to see the canadian rock roots havent died theyve just evolved we got a new generation now
awesome! thanks so much. 🖤🇨🇦
I felt the same way. They're great! You might also like Ellis, from Hamilton, Ontario ... th-cam.com/channels/ghzQwvBtWJ6kZKtC-BeQfg.html
Your lyrics speak to me more and more with every song that comes out. Simply mesmerizing. ❤️
thank you! i'm glad it resonates with you.
Phenomenal EP 10/10 softcult every song is brilliant 🤩 and spoiled is perfect too and catchy and Mercedes on that guitar 🎸 sounds awesome and phoenix on drums 🪘too credit to you both you both have done a phenomenal job with this EP and I can’t wait to hear more from you and see what you have got next lined up you rock softcult 🤘🥰 xxx
Beautiful track! As someone who loves 80's dream pop (Cocteau Twins) and shoegaze, Softcult is a breath of fresh air. Can't wait to see you all in Nashville. Why you are not bigger is beyond me. Great songs and one of the best new bands I have discovered in a very long time. The ambient sounds on the production is great as well
ah thank you so much
Eu conheci essa banda faz menos de 1 mês..e incrivelmente...adorei todas as musicas..banda sensacional...abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷😍
The melodies + reverb. 💖💖
This song is so good! Thank you!
Great!...
🖤🖤🖤✨ My winning girls, always, love it! This entire album is a magical 💫🌙
LOVE THIS SO MUCHHH
This is a masterpiece. Our new favorite Softcult song. Thank you for your music!
thank you so so much
So See You in the Dark is the third EP in a row with every song being 10/10. Thank you for all the work and care you put in your music, genuinely fills me with so much joy how much it speaks to me ❤
that really means a lot. thank you so much for listening in detail.
If The Cure and Alanis Morisette merge we have this, a beautiful mix of joy and sadness. One of the bands I discovered recently by pure chance, been listening regularly ever since. Keep creating.
Two of our biggest influences. Thank you so much! 🖤🤍
@@mercedesarn-horn8095 very welcome!
being able to upload what you feel and be perfect in every song... you are amazing!♡
ah thanks so much
Man the bridge in this song just grooves with itself so hard. Best way I can describe it!
This is incredible! I was so bummed I missed your concert in NY. Definitely will be going the next time you're in NY.
thank you!
This gave me chills.
magically sensitive 🥹💕 thanks for another song on repeat
Beautiful as always!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. 🙏🏽❤❤👑👑🖤🖤
thank you
Saw Softcult with Teenage Wrist in Detroit last year. Talk about the two best alt rock bands out there today.
Addicted to this song!
I can't count how many times I played this song on TH-cam and Bandcamp within the last 24 hours. I absolutely love this song and I am enjoying discovering Softcult's music more and more each day. I finally bought the album in Bandcamp (which I normally don't 'coz I prefer having a physical copy) earlier. I hope they play this song at their Manila show on May 7!
Thanks for sharing.
thanks for listening!
@@Softcultband ☺
Great song and video! from Japan.
I used to listen to your songs when I was a teenager.
I'm glad i found your new band today.
I respect your musical activities.
I love this song!
I love these girls.. write produce all their own stuff.. releases like this keep me working on my music when i could have give up already
i'm glad you decided to keep going. you can do it!
I love how consistent the releases have been. Loved the hooks throughout the new EP!

And they directed and edited this video?! Wow 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Another great song !! So beautiful ! and another killer EP as well You guys are amazing !!

Freaking amazing as always! I’ve been listening to your music nonstop for the past year and a half-please tell me you will be doing a US tour soon!
I supported softcults show today sep 7th 2023 and they were incredibly nice to me. I told them I'd never heard their music before but they have a new fan ❤
Was hooked immediately by the guitar riff, then the video idea with the water droplets was awesome! Great track
thank you so much 🖤🤍
I like when Mercedes does that guitar solo and phoenix on drums it’s just phenomenal and sounds brilliant too 🎸❤️🥰 xxx
Saw this band open up for Movements the other day and they completely blew me away.
The entire EP is a masterpiece. Congrats to the band, you really did a fantastic job!
thank you so much
Exquisite song writing and vocal delivery. Softcult is fine, sorry Fine. Just discovered them today!! Kudos to your production and recording people too. BANG-UP JOB!!
Love how atmospheric this is!

Every day is a good day when these girls release a new tune!
Thank You Girls!

thank you so much!
This is amazing! Happy release day!
Merci beaucoup ariane 🥰
I am absolutely addicted to this song. You guys make such good music, keep it up! I am proud to be a fan.
thank you
The way this song flows and builds upwards into that amazing bridge is just incredible songwriting. You know a song is special if you get goosebumps the first time you hear it. There are couplets here that remind me of my own poetry. This song hits me on a deep personal level.
thank you so so much
y'all have quickly become one of my favorite bands. so glad i stumbled on one of your videos on here a few months ago!
thanks for being here!
like forreal ong
Lit! Bump, bump, bump!!!

@@Softcultband WEEEEEEEEE
I listened to this in a crowded grocery store today and it made me feel like the only one in the room. Thank you for such beautiful sounds! This type of music really helps so many of us
thank you so much
This song is just speaking to me in a different way. I always enjoy your music (and I'm always keep commenting under every new video, let's go girlz!), but this time I have to say I found a new favourite! (and always kudos to Mercedes for the simple and effective approach to videomaking!)
thank you so so much for the support, and for the encouragement. It’s very appreciated!
Bellisssimo. Mi trascinate via.
WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT KEEPP GOINGG!! 😁😁 I love ur music 🙃

Excellent as always
thank you 🖤🤍
Looking forward to your 2nd visit to Thailand in May!
see you soon!
Oh My God! what a Sound.. Great!!!
you’re some of the best musicians i’ve ever heard.
you’ve earned a spot right on the top of my “favorite bands of all time” list and you two are an inspiration for me to make my own music
i hope i can see you live someday
wow thank you so much 🖤 honestly really means a lot to hear that. keep going!!
What a beautiful surprise in my youtube notifications this morning! Absolutely love this one.. as well as every other that's put out. Wish there could be a new song every day but then it wouldnt be so special! ❤
awwww thank you 🖤🤍
Another stellar track. Loving the reverb🖤❤️🤍
Thank you 🖤🤍 reverb on EVERYTHING
@@mercedesarn-horn8095 Yes... I noticed😉. I do the same on my tracks too. Can't beat that effect.
I adore the concept, the music, the voices, fantastic.
thank you so much 🖤🤍
Que música tan brutal y sincera hace Softcult. Me encanta la nueva dirección musical que emprendieron Mercedes y Phoenix. Son grandiosas: componen sus canciones, hacen sus videos, son increíbles fotógrafas y venden por su cuenta su música. Softcult flechó mi corazón. Larga vida para ellas. Espero verlas pronto en vivo. Un saludo desde Colombia.
I’m honestly SOOO happy to be seeing you guys at Movements’ Chicago show. Super stacked lineup that night, really looking forward to your set. Much love ❤️
This is the first song I ever heard from Softcult and it's my most favorite. Looking forward to watching them live on May 7th. I hope they play this song.
You save my life and thank you. Keep playing.
Top Music! 🇧🇷
Love it all!!!I get excited when i find a new favorite group.Really doesn't happen often.👍 This is great
aw thanks so much!
Help ! I think i'm obsessed with SOFTCULT 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
sorry, there ain't no cure for that :(
Such awe, such aura, such feels thank you so much 😁 You both deserve the recognition. Phoenix says you're the one doing everything and then you say she does everything. You're so thankful for each other, that translates how linked you two are and it translates itself in your music. Every song is pretty melancholic but that's what's important, to be able to show our fragile vulnerability, that we all have. Keep it up!!
aw thank you
such a good song! i love your music, it's so comforting :)
thanks so much for listening 🖤
Almost wore my softcult, long sleeve to Rubblebucket show last night,
I'm wearing my Mo Lowda and the Humble band t TONIGHT that I bought the same night at Rubblebucket, which was SOLD OUT so I waited outside the venue down the street in hopes one of the band members would come out AND maybe, sell me a tour t, and he did. Tonight I dropped off Vegan food for my new friend LILY from Cincinnati YESTERDAY, that I met at an event THE COOLEST PERSON of June 8 2024
Another beautiful song. It reminds me a whole lot like you might have listened to a little Aaron Marsh/Copeland and leaned into an influence like that. Which I love. He and Copeland are brilliant.
Damn I'm glad that you're still making music and also the music you like to do, because it's amazing!
ridiculously talented people.
How could you do this? Every first single video burst my eyes, you're wonderful girls😍 So sad that I can't get to your concert in Europe, it just sucks. Hope someday...
thank you so much 🥰
@@mercedesarn-horn8095 Thank you, Mercedes!🤗
Beautiful, you guys are truly one of a kind. I wish you great success. Please keep them coming. The life experiences you have had to create your musical canvas is the wonder of life
thank you
So good 👌
Another beautiful track. Best band I've come across in a long time
thank you 🖤
