about

A rambunctious new song and video from Friends Without Faces. Here, our characters meet: sorrel (human, current year, Florida) and Lychee (red panda-stoat, from the future, Neo-Antarctica). Lychee can't beam video back in time, but she is able to send motion-capture through VRchat. "Sunny Side Up" is about the ups & downs of life as an artist, the silly little moments of inspiration, and the highs of finding your place amongst peers and allies - it's also about having a bomb-ass time tearing up the dance floor with your pals! Backing vocals in certain parts of the song are provided by Diana Starshine ♬

lyrics

You just can't please everybody
When you try, things get so gaudy
That the art falls apart
Bleeding hearts à la carte
Can't articulate what the mind dictates

The room's eyes turn to me:
"Enfranchise all of these
Lost souls" is our aim tonight
And with that, please recite

I fire up my buddies over USB
Stayin' evergreen in the Holocene
I'm so glad to be the function bourgeoise
The hottest thing on the blockchain B/C

I put my hands up, then I put them down
I keep my head up and I go to town
I'm in the cockpit when we fly in the club
And that's how we keep it sunny-side up

“Headstrong” once again
The song starts to end
When nothing else keeps
Helping you in stealth

In moments soon to pass
Atonement comes so fast
At last, a fire starts to swell
And still spreads, though dispelled

I fire up my buddies over USB
Stayin' evergreen in the Holocene
I'm so glad to be the function bourgeoise
The hottest thing on the blockchain B/C

I put my hands up, then I put them down
I keep my head up and I go to town
I'm in the cockpit when we fly in the club
And that's how we keep it sunny-side up

Drafting prose is a waiting game
Stepped-on toes near a window pane
Summer haze drums my Winter nights
End of days comes before the light,
Alright!

I put my hands up, then I put them down
I keep my head up and I go to town
I'm in the cockpit when we fly in the club
And that's how we keep it sunny-side up

Oh yeah
Oh, yeah!

Friends Without Faces Orlando, Florida

Hey there! My name's Lychee, and I'm an experimental Pop musician living in Polaris, Antarctica! I started Friends Without Faces years ago, but recently I met Sorrel - she's an ancient human musician who'd used the same alias in her time! Now we work together to make exciting, fresh music as the new Friends Without Faces! ... more
