about
Heart-over-head folk-pop singer-songwriter Jess Irvine returns to share her sophomore single, Wild Wild Me. This ethereal folk-driven soundscape sweetly encourages total surrender thanks to soaring strings, sweet harmonies and a kind of sincerity in voice and lyrics that is signature for the songstress. Produced by Ben Kling, with mastering by Mike Dwyer (The Lumineers, Vance Joy); Wild Wild Me is the second instalment in a collection of heartfelt mantras crafted for the modern-day dreamer.
lyrics
I wanna swim out to the breakers
And let those waves just wash right over me
I wanna surrender to something greater than me
I wanna surrender to the sea
I wanna unleash the wild within me
And watch her shake and stir up energy
To let go of limitations and what’s not serving me
And be the wild one I was born to be
Oh I am wild, I am wild, I am free
Oh I am wild, I am fierce, wild wild me
I wanna take off my shoes and socks now
And dance upon the earth with my bare feet
To bathe naked in the sun and write wild poetry
To soak up books and swim in mugs of tea
Oh I am wild, I am wild, I am free
Oh I am wild, I am fierce, wild wild me
Oh I am wild, I am wild, I am free
Oh I am wild, I am fierce, wild wild me
So I’m gonna break free from these old chains
And watch my intuition guide me home
I am strong and I am wise wherever I roam
Wild is in my blood, it’s in my bones
Oh I am wild, I am wild, I am free
Oh I am wild, I am fierce, wild wild me
Oh I am wild, I am wild, I am free
Oh I am wild, I am fierce, wild wild me
Wild wild me
Wild wild me
Wild wild me
