Xian Xian Straight-up longform dance floor deep dive pathos from a master in that field and living legend. Praying that NYC will get to experience this song live someday. Favorite track: Flash Of Light (Live in Berlin).

themilkman That was one of my farourtie tracks from Róisín's Glasto set last year, and this is just pure epic! Great version, and fantastic energy! Thank you Róisín for releasing it for us all to enjoy!

tomkiss Absolutely beautiful track. Takes me right back to Róisín's INCREDIBLE set at Glastonbury 2022.

"We don't have much time. We just don't have fucking much."

🥲 🙌 ❤️

about

This is the live performance of "Flash Of Light" recorded at the May 15th 2022 concert in Berlin's Columbia Halle. The song was originally written and recorded with Luca C & Brigante in 2012, and this recording marks the song's 10th year anniversary.

lyrics

Am I just tripping?

No you won't be coming down
You'll fall asleep and never, be coming round
You say your last goodbye
No you won't be coming down

No we won't be late
Would you make me wait
When there's so little time?
Like a dying star, a fireball
Made the orange sky

Take me down to the edge of here
Take me now, I know what ready is
And I'm running to the sound

Counting down to the end of the end game
The sands of time are running out
Take me down I don't wanna live
With an ordinary, ordinary sky

One last flash of brilliance
One more blinding light
The last dead beat descendants
We're going into the night
The last time I held you
I held you so tight
That I want
One last flash of brilliance
One more night to thrill you
Well I ask, one last
Flash of light

I ask, one last
Flash of light

I know I was wrong
I know I was wrong

One last flash of brilliance
One more blinding light
The last dead beat descendants
Are going into the night
The last time I held you
I held you so tight
That I want
One last flash of brilliance
One more night to thrill you
Well I ask, one last
Flash of light

Loving you is easy
It’s the leaving that scarred
Loving you is easy
It’s the leaving that’s hard
Time moves slow
When you’re all alone
Time moves slow
When you’re on your own
Time moves slow
When you miss a friend
Time moves slow
When you leave again

One last flash of brilliance
One more blinding light
The last dead beat descendants
Are going into the night

Flash of light
Going into the night

Ain’t nobody
Gonna give you
What we got
There ain't nobody
Gonna give you
What it is
That we got
Cos there ain't nobody
Ain’t no one
There aint nobody
Ain’t no one
Cos there ain't nobody

Gonna give you
Gonna love you
Like I do
There ain't no one

Ain’t nobody
Flash of light

One last flash of brilliance
One more blinding light
The last dead beat descendants
Are going in
Are going in
Are going in
Are going in…
To the night
To the night

Running away is easy
It’s the leaving that’s hard
Running away is easy
It’s the living that’s hard

Loving you was easy
It’s the leaving that scarred
Loving you is easy
It’s the leaving that’s hard

Loving you
Easy
Leaving you
Hard
Leaving you
Hard
Time moves slow
Time moves slow
Time moves slow
Time moves
So slowly

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
