    Some of us are wild ones
    Ever under wanted I believe
    Lining up in the background
    Waiting for the crowd shot to be seen
    In the shadow of the big screen
    Everybody begs to be redeemed
    Hey, I'm not synthetica
    I'll keep the life that I've got
    We were never meant to
    Crawl in for the bait, we never will
    I can think for myself
    I've something no pill could ever kill
    Hey, I'm not synthetica
    I'll keep the life that I've got
    So hard, hard to resist
    Synthetica
    No drug is stronger than me
    Synthetica
    We're all the time confined to fit the mold
    But I won't ever let them make a loser of my soul
    Ahhh
    Hey, I'm not synthetica
    I'll keep the life that I've got
    I'll keep the life that I've got
    I'll keep the life that I've got
    I'll keep the life that I've got

    Very Big in Canada! and I've liked them in the US since way back (18++ years ago) - Emily Hayes is extraordinarily talented and I had a glimpse of them at PNC in NJ pre-pandemic doing a small set opening for another band - very unfortunate there's no East Coast demand for them I wish I can see her closer to home!

      Probably the full minute of showing a drone flying before they start playing. They certainly nailed the performance, but apparently the more time you spend surfing the web the less patience you have for sunsets;)

    Hey Listen up..I'm not sythetica, I haven't been following you since the beginning....I was happy to find you on a David Letterman show and got the chance to see you twice. But Live at Sasquatch with Synthetica had some much "white noise" in the first minute point five that I didn't bother sharing it with friends. I love the middle to end...starting with the hang-glider. But how do you put that in a post. I just thought if someone was randomly looking at it for their FIRST METRIC TIME...they might not pay attention. Here's a great simile...if you butt dial a friend on your phone, all they hear is white noise. Just as we didn't need to know you showed up late. I know this is a popular blog and just noise. Thought I might contribute to a band I love and that brings me peace first, then joy.
