“My, My” by Gallipoli – A Song Feature

 

    “My, My” progresses with a gentle elegance. There is a slow-building crescendo at 1:30, but it does not foreshadow the guitar-driven explosion that occurs at 2:11. The early focus on soothing vocals abruptly shifting to forceful guitar bears some similarity to “Fix You” by Coldplay, but we favor the execution by Gallipoli.
 
     Gallipoli is Lucas McCone and Aman Sheriff. They formed the Indie/Alternative band in early 2021, after writing and producing a four-track EP in the mountains of North Macedonia. The duo named themselves after the WW1 Battle of Gallipoli as an homage to their family history. Gallipoli has played shows in Los Angeles, performing at venues such as Hotel Cafe and with Sofar Sounds. “My, My” will be on the EP “On Vodno,” which will be released this year.

Lyrics of “My, My” by Gallipoli
My, my
My only lover
You’ll have another boy
To cheer you up
 
My, my
My only lover
You’ve found another boy
To pick you up
 
You’ve found another boy
To pick you up
 
It’s getting cold outside this window
It’s getting dark inside my head
There’s still a little flame left over
Watch it take its final breath
 
My, my
My only lover
How much longer
Can I keep this up?
 
My, my
My only lover
Oh how much longer
Can I keep this up?
How much longer can I keep this up?
