about

Islanders gives a voice to those hungry for change, for a future that is more instead of just more of the same. A song about unity and connection in a rapidly changing world and an anthem to the advocates of a change for the better.

„We have been told it's no use getting old.”

lyrics

Starfish are playing
they move about
as long as we're laying
their cool hands down
we have been told
it’s no use getting old

Follow the tide
let days go by
ode to the breeze
ode to delight
we have been told
it’s no use getting old
and we carry all the parts
carry all the parts to last here
and we carry all the parts

We are fires on the barricades
we are fighters to your cool parades
all we are we are
is hungry islanders
we are riots to your serenades
we are choirs to the silent days
all we are we are
is hungry islanders
in the stream

Come to the tribe
let day go by
oh what a treat
oh what a lie
we have been told
it’s no use getting old
and we carry all the parts
carry all the parts to last here
and we carry all the parts
carry all the parts

We are fires on the barricades
we are fighters to your cool parades
all we are is hungry islanders
we are riots to your serenades
we are choirs to the silent days
all we are is hungry islanders
in your stream
