Cinema purchase
CINEMA is the bands studio release since 2007.
The album is due for release June 25 in Australia, June 29 in Canada, July 6 in the USA, and about a month in Europe and everywhere else.
Produced by Steve Schram, and recorded at Sing Sing Studios in the bands home of Melbourne, this is an album which shows The Cat Empire at their very best, right now.
In an age when so much of selling music to be about celebrity and fashion, The Cat Empire have risen to be one of Australia and indeed the worlds favourite live acts through sheer musicality and the power of their interaction on stage.
2010 sees the international release and world tour of Cinema, the band's fourth studio album. The album serves up a set which captures the inexorable force - and sheer joy - of their live performances, delivered in a format perfect for lounge-rooms, backyards, BBQ's, cafes, road and parties all over the world. This is music which defies definition, but has a sound all of its own.
The only thing we can you it is that it is incredibly infectious, undeniably uplifting and definitely danceable,

* Feelings o
I used to ride up on the And look down at the Silhouettes of tall black And my heart jumped ledge Until one bright morning I woke I heard bells, girl she gently and said Choice my to breath or choke So go die, or learn to
Get back on way at the end of the day the fire and the rain The whole big parade until that feeling, feelings gone You up on your own
Sometimes walls come in the world just hits your chin And sometimes shadows haunt back And sometimes I so flat Then like rare eagle on the wind Well it and life comes bursting in And the earth you thought would beat you up and lights your ground
Get back on way at the end of the day the fire and the rain The whole big bloody parade that That feeling, feelings You wake up on own
/ Lifts up and sends you homeward / Lifts up and then youre found / Lifts up and turns world around
/still scarred of lived on the ledge And the Earth you would eat you up it lifts you high and fills your cup And right then I learnt to / the point of hope / I knew the way ahead/ to go
/ lifts up and clears hallowed ground
*So scared that lived on the edge / Scared of love lived on the ledge / love lived on the ledge
/ As if my love a ledge
bring you Lifts up, your just leaves the ground /and how you love your ground / high above the
/ and the earth you thought would end song song / lifts up and now . . . the gone feelings gone
And you wonder how on you When high o

This is the last time I follow you
This is the time I will follow you at all
Cos youre my trouble
And woman Ive been trouble and
My care
Is standing here when youre out there
The wind comes down and all our youth is in loose
The wind appeared like you and left the Id known
Now have lost their meaning
The words have lost meaning and shes bored
And I am
Im standing here waiting and you call
Im standing waiting and you dont call
Im standing here but you dont call
Im here waiting
You took my time I still love you the
But I fell down every that you
Came, Came,
time that you came
The leaves fall gently and like autumn she brings
The leaves are left behind and winters in my
But I wont here crying
I wont stand here crying
Im off the
Im standing here waiting for you all
Im standing waiting and you dont call
Im standing here waiting but you call
Im here waiting
You took my time I love you the same
But I down every time that you
Came, Came,
Every that you came o

From the city to the world
From the strangers to the I know
the darkness to the holy glow
We burn so
Can we the show?

From the future to the times Ive
the righteous to the make believe
We all must
But I just want to
My up and Im almost
My hands my shoulders
Ill dan, til Im old and
Deep down, and
From the pilot to the sky
From the until the day we die
From the to the lonely cry
We all
Lie and
My up and Im almost
My hands over my
Ill dan, til Im old and
Deep down, and
Well I love you a raging storm
And I miss you like Im home
And I hold you a fading song
You me high, high, higher . . . until Im

MP3 * Only o All along the they're holding signs that say That I am lost and that I do not the way I asked the rock, sitting in a shade of I asked the rock, he didn't have a to say
So you are the light I see You are the light I need When else is sleeping You along and help me breathe
When I was a stone no-one knew that I was I'd sing my song but no-one ever really I went to the mountain face all in tears I wept but the mountain didn't seem to
I'll love you the mountain starts to cry I'll love you if I don't the reason why love you until I do not know my name I ask you wouldn't you have the same? o

MP3 * All o
All hells down inside
The to the other side
in rooms to quiet sighs of
Oh well if its happening
It here, and god appears to deal
A hand to different tiers
But this is not over yet
Hear the music of those
Beating drums down the streets
Of ignorance and vain
And all fears swiftly come to pass
she feels were past
Cups of tea and optimistic
Cos out our unholy mess
Gathering its long dress
And marching down aisle to this
Matrimonial bliss
the tide and hope it doesnt lift up your
Carpet woven from and token frets
All Hell!
But this is not over yet
Hear the music of marionettes
Beating drums the quiet streets
Of and vain regrets o

me
Underneath the light
go
Wandering into the
There's
the beat of control
A music that is all
You go to sleep you wake up you do it again And there's a beat you make up of your head And every street's a river be born or be dead We are all singing this song but Nobody knows how it's going to end
me
In the coolness of the
me
Further the firelight
This
No-one really where to go
For that is beyond all
A music is beyond all
me
Up until I'm of sand
me up
And scatter me the land
Our
They're hairy and fat and they're old
I'm
For something that is all
A music is beyond all o

MP3 * On My Way o
Dont me down the hole

Dont send me down the
Which way it go go?
You never know
You never know
You never the right way

And if you to shine
As your February
your March just disappear?
You it on the left
You it on the left
You hear it on the left
then the right right
Youre missing in the
missing in the west
Youre missing in the
You the black kite
And in your dreams
There are that cant be seen
And lost in where youve been
Im on my way
To where I wont back

With
That were living on the

Oh oh oh oh oh oh . . .
Youre in a lie
living in a lie
Youre in a lie
Why do you
Were in the sky

So low and so high
And if you want to
As the sea to the stars
Well youre here, but far!
And I'm on my way To where I wont back
I you say
With
That were living on the

Oh oh oh oh oh oh . . .

With
That living on the tracks
I the train
On my way
To I wont look back
I you say
distain
That were on the tracks
I hear the
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
