Far from everything
is where I wanna be.
Far from here, I mean.
It's subtle,
the distinction.

Far from cruelty
is where I wanna be.
Most of what you say,
it's hard to
tell the difference.

I'll go.
I'll go
far from the smoke signals
you blow in my face, yeah.

I will take a map
and I will lay it flat here.
I will drop a pin
to see where I should run.

I'll go.
I'll go
far from the smoke signals
you blow in my face,
far from the smoke signals
you blow in my face.

Far from everything

Far from here, I mean.

the distinction.

I'll go.
I'll go
far from the smoke signals
you blow in my face,
far from the smoke signals
you blow in my face.

This song is performed by Manchester.

Manchester: "Sans puissance, le son n'est rien"

Manchester are a band who wear many of their influences on their sleeve - or, rather, in their name.

There's also very much of a Mancunian swagger in the voice of lead singer and guitarist Leslie Kervella, who I first met when she was pushing her way to the front of a VERY long queue for the toilets in the Pop In and proclaiming loudly, "Let me through, let me through - I'm pregnant!"

Now that she's given birth and found time for making music again, the first results of our labours are ready to see the light of day. Smoke Signals is about taking the not-too-subtle hint that it's time to move on, while Grip compares the act of making love to nothing less than climbing a mountain.

Rock on!
