"Constant Traveller" was the result of the Zero to Single project - in which, with the help of Patrons, Amelia composed, arranged, recorded, and released an original song in 30 days.

LYRICS: Touch down in the middle of nowhere Travelled 2,000 miles just to get there Nobody sat at home, worried Waiting up for me

Tell the date by the city I'm playing When to sleep all depends where I'm staying Curse the dawn with a new or an old friend Every now and then

People pass on the street There's always someone to meet And friends calling me up on the phone There just ain't no way to be lonely when you’re not alone

The trail of anonymous places Mapped hard in the lines on our faces We raise a glass in a toast to what’s come to be Freedom's monotony

Between singing the blues And long nights with cheap booze I make family wherever I roam There just ain't no way to be homesick when you've got no home

No time for routine Every day a new scene I tell you this life ain’t so bad There just ain’t no way for you to miss something you never had I say, there just ain't no way for me to miss something I never had

In honour of the 30th anniversary of The Sundays’ Reading, Writing and Arithmetic album, singer-songwriter Amelia Ray releases a dream pop ballad version of “Here’s Where the Story Ends,” gently lamenting a love gone bad. Ray sings lines such as “But the only thing I ever really wanted to say was wrong” with the the broken-hearted desperation of someone who has realised a relationship’s futility.

The video was filmed in one, continuous shot, take. Ray spent two days in Antwerp under the tutelage of Laura Laura Productions learning to draw, and showed great improvement in rendering both The Eiffel Tower and facial profiles recognisable. Time proved to be her enemy, though, and as the task of drawing at the speed of the song took precedence over technique, her style quickly morphed from Cuyp to Picasso.

For $9.99, the song will also come bundled with a limited-edition, numbered, signed postcard print featuring original artwork by Amelia Ray from the book created in the video. The artwork was drawn in real time during the filming of the video. Only 125 postcards will be printed. Free shipping! Order here: https://ameliaray.net/product/565900
