Catchy, trippy, hypnotic and insistent, Merry go Round is a reflection on dreams, lost love, passion as fire grows and the transience of life. A simple acoustic guitar part is interrupted by pulsing synth before the breathy vocals join. Momentum builds with drums and a female voice singing scat over the second chorus before the song breaks into its final refrain and conclusion with multiple vocal and instrumental layers

Merry go round is a progpop song inspired by the progressive music of the 70s, in the spirit of “Wonderous stories” and “I Know what I like “. Written at a turbulent time in my life, Merry go round is reflective but always upbeat and optimistic.
