1.	Talking to Nobody 03:38	lyrics	buy track
I don’t want to see that My hands are numb When they come for me i won’t run I don’t want to feel like My feet can’t walk When no one’s looking should you need to talk I don’t see why you should talk I can’t see my fingers rot I don’t see why i should feel For anything that isn’t real I don’t want to seem like My thoughts are warped Where i’m looking i can’t seem to touch I can see what’s coming And before too long No one’s going to miss you when you’re gone No one’s happy now you’re gone No one’s helping anyone They can see but they can’t feel As nothing for them seems real No, nothing for them is real No, nothing for them is real No, nothing for them is real
2.	Winter Song 02:19	lyrics	buy track
Here’s my winter song Nothing comes along At least I’ve got myself To tell me I do well She can’t see it straight Shot down to nothing Falling as she waits At least she waits for something Good times are to come No feelings for future She wants to feel her own Neither plays it safer Weighed in like a stone Don’t feel like I’ve grown In any way but one It’s nothing I’ve become Become more self involved She cries under the street light Nothing could go wrong Sucked in by the cold night While the artist stalls Finally got the picture List of what he’s done But life never gets clearer Nothing set in stone Finally made the big leagues Time to fear my own Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree Feelings for the crime spree
3.	Winter Song (Acoustic Version) 02:00

Today Michael Clark reveals ‘Talking to Nobody’, the second part of double A sided single that also features his recent release 'Winter Song'. After a period of touring last year, Michael went into the studio in Brighton to record this new single. The sound that he had honed while on the road with his band, the extra layers and textures that were brought into his previously more stripped back, folk inspired compositions are all captured here in these two melancholic and atmospheric recordings.

Michael's music first started appearing online as early as 2014. They were self-recorded, self-released tracks that soon caught the attention of his peers and contemporaries while living down in Falmouth. The Line of Best Fit discovered his music and dubbed it ‘a veritable treasure trove of undiscovered sad bastard alternative’.

His first single proper, 'Something to be Won' came out in the summer of of 2018 and was followed by the release of his debut EP in January of the following year. Following on from the EP release Michael played two sold-out headline shows, supported The Leisure Society on their UK tour (which included a show at London’s Union Chapel) and appeared at Sea Change and Deer Shed festivals.
