Hassles Music here is driven by Louise's voice - the arrangements are very sympathetic, often simple & sparse leaving the song at the fore - very catchy.

Ghosts 03:20
I'm not afraid of ghosts but i'm afraid of most things most days. And I'm not a lonely soul, but i'm a little cold and stoney. I didn't know you didn'g know me that well, well I should have introduced myself, I'm a hundred miles away from feeling safe and sound, but I'm pretty grounded these days, They ring out, They ring out, and they shout, baby don't you ever start to doubt, Don't you ever start to doubt, Don't you ever strat to doubt, Don't you ever, don't you ever. I threw myself at fate in such a messy state, I think I thought that I was being brave, I am 10 x10 away from understanding you, but I've got more to do these days, They ring out, They ring out, and they shout, baby don't you ever start to doubt, Don't you ever start to doubt, Don't you ever strat to doubt, Don't you ever, don't you ever. I'm lost and sold at sea, but everything you've been is everything I've ever needed, and now I search the skies for answers I can't find for things I've left behind and they, They ring out, They ring out, and they shout, baby don't you ever start to doubt. Well I'm not afraid of ghosts but I'm afraid of most things most days.

You tilt your head to look at me and baby, You hold my hand and squeeze it tightly, baby, You tell me, that you'll always, be by my side, That you'll never, hold another, Like you're holding me tonight, That you'll never, Love another, In your life. You close your eyes to pout your lips and baby, You put your arms around my waist and baby, You tell me, that you'll always, be by my side, That you'll never, hold another, Like you're holding me tonight, That you'll never, Love another, In your life. And if you, should ever, find another love, please tell her, you loved me first, You loved me first, You loved me first, You loved me first.

Demons 03:28
I wait and patiently I write and I fight demons at my doorstep, They show their teeth, and they smile at me, while I dig the holes, To bury them I run away and I start again, There'll be no demons at my doorstep, I can change everything I am I will not fight or run or side step I am, I will, I want, I can. I am, I will, I want, I can. I stand alone in fields of trees and I am pleased that people, leave me be They show their teeth, and they smile at me, while I run in lines until I find a sturdy tree for me to climb, There'll be no demons at my doorstep, I can change everything I am I will not fight or run or side step I am, I will, I want, I can. Well, I can be anything I want to be, No excuses, nothing stopping me, and though those demons show their teeth, I'm not afraid, no nothing can scare me. 'cause I dig the holes, To bury them I run away and I start again, There'll be no demons at my doorstep, I can change everything I am I will not fight or run or side step I am, I will, I want, I can. I am, I will, I want, I can.

We sit, a feast of fear, A falling face, a rising cheer. Oh some kind soul let me in, and he sang songs that stirred up sin, In me. In me. In me. In me. I will take your hand tonight, let you lead me out of sight, Let you love me, Let you hold me, Let you close your eyes, Let you know, what it is to be, a fading light. We hide, a cloak of dark, a fading light, a bright new start. Oh some poor fool let me in, and he told tales of a mortal sin, In him. In him. In him. In him. I will take your hand tonight, let you lead me out of sight, Let you love me, Let you hold me, Let you close your eyes, Let you know, what it is to be, a fading light. Hold out your hand to me, hold up your head, don't make it seem like you're easily led, Breathe in the moonlight and take in the stars, The lights that don't fade are afraid of the dark, We are not. We are not. We are not. We are not. Oh some kind soul let me in. Oh some fool he just let me in. We sit, a feast of fear, a fading light, a rising cheer.

about

"The perfect placing of music and lyrics that make you instantly become attentive, that speak to something deeper inside you than just words set to a catchy melody. It’s a rare quality to find but one that's found in Louise Petit’s EP" - Shaun Cole, MR Unsigned Magazine
