Little Fish - Old Fashioned Morphine (acoustic)
“I drink alone like an insomniac, instead of sleeping there next to you, if I said, that I loved you too much, it would send a shiver right through me, so I wonder what I’m doing here….”
Juju’s recording a weekly series of new songs, and calling it the Fish Bowl Sessions. Old Fashioned Morphine is a new song that we hope to record for the second record. In Juju’s ideal world, she would record this song live in someone’s living room full of people singing along. This was her intention when she wrote it.
The song was recorded very quickly as Juju and Ben got asked to play an acoustic show at the last minute in a small local pub that night (check out this great video of Only A Game from that gig!). They took this opportunity to take their Flip cameras along with them to the show and get the audience involved in some of the singalong action.
Juju and Ben have been doing a run of low key acoustic shows recently for fun. Ben has started to bring the harmonica into the set as it sounds great and is a light instrument to travel with. In this recording, the key of the song was lowered, as Juju and Ben haven’t yet managed to get themselves a harmonica in Bb (the key that the song should be played in!).
People have been asking us to post the lyrics for the Fish Bowl sessions too, so here are the lyrics to Old Fashioned Morphine! We’ll put the rest up when we get a chance…
We’ll be posting a new song every week(ish), so make sure you’re subscribed to something (YouTube, Twitter, Facebook or our mailing list) and we’ll let you know when they’re up… ;-)

Little Fish - Only A Game (acoustic) (by JujuNez)
“You hate my darling, for being sweet on me, you turn on the light, take down a dream, I don’t wanna make you weep, but the devil wants me to play…”
Juju’s recording a weekly series of new songs, and calling it the Fish Bowl Sessions. Only A Game isn’t a new song but it isn’t on the first record and we have been playing it live at shows. We hope to record it for the second record.
This week, Nez joins us on the drums - playing softly takes him a lot of self control (please appreciate!). We recorded this at the end of a rehearsal last weekend. Ben brought his computer and set a few microphones. This is one of my mum’s favourite songs! Enjoy…. X Juju

Little Fish - Lord’s Mistake (acoustic) (via JujuNez)
“The night, I lay in my bed of dark, the chain, hanging from my throat, Jesus isn’t there, only the cross that is his throne…”
Juju’s recording a weekly series of new songs, and calling it the Fish Bowl Sessions. Lord’s Mistake is another new song, “Who are we? Where do we come from? Why are we here? We have to know and understand our past in order for us to understand our presence here, now, on earth .” Juju seems to have gone a bit dark this week and brings out the edgier side to Little Fish. Ben plays his trusty red Farfisa Compact (“The Rocket”).

Little Fish - Morning Call (acoustic)
“Morning call, telephone ring, why does it keep on ringing…?”
Juju’s recording a weekly series of new songs, and calling it the Fish Bowl Sessions. Morning Call is another new song, “an ode, an anthemic call that questions the very nature of our existence and our quest for survival.” Juju may have been watching too much Human Planet, but she has made an awesome an epic video to go with this tune. Ben plays his trusty red Farfisa Compact (“The Rocket”).

Little Fish - Disco Feet (acoustic)
“Lone wanderer, beat by a shooting star”
Juju’s recording a weekly series of new songs, and calling it the Fish Bowl Sessions. The last couple of sessions have been quite serious so Juju’s made a more light-hearted video for her new song Disco Feet. Recorded live in the kitchen with Ben on acoustic guitar and one extra vocal track for the chorus. Simples.

Little Fish - Too Late (acoustic)
“I live in the city, but elsewhere in my head…”
Juju’s recording a weekly series of new songs, and calling it the Fish Bowl Sessions. Too Late is a new song packed with emotion. Juju plays it at home with Ben helping out on Rhodes and backing vocals.

Little Fish - Blue Morning (acoustic)
“Blue morning, the second hand kisses the minute hand…”
Juju’s recording a weekly series of new songs, and calling it the Fish Bowl Sessions. Blue Morning is the first one, and you probably haven’t heard it before (it’s new!). Ben helped out on organ and backing vocals, and Juju made a video for it.
