about

Gunaikurnai/Gippsland based urban-pop-folk rock duo Ally Row have just released their toe-tapping and catchy new single ‘I Got Mine’.
The track celebrates each individual’s personal struggle, with the hook “you’ve got your shit and I’ve got mine”.

Deceptively, ‘I Got Mine’ shows all the hallmarks of a light hearted and uplifting folk tune, however at its core this track exudes heavy and poignant lyricism.
The Triple J Unearthed winners dive into their own experiences of mental health, living under the poverty line and recovering from personal loss.
The single’s husky vocals, playful banjo and buoyant instrumentation, creates a positive and safe atmosphere for the listener.

“We wrote this while spending a night in a tiny house in east Gippsland after a gig. It’s a warm reminder to practice empathy because we tend to compare ourselves to others who seem to have it better than us….but you never know what other people are going through.”

Reminiscent of the mid 2000s classics such as ‘Home’ by Edward Shape and The Magnetic Zeros, ‘Haven’t met you yet’ by Michael Buble and Lenka’s ‘The Show’, Ally Row’s ‘I Got Mine’ is a bold and vibrant folky track that pairs perfectly with road trips, an Aperol Spritz and late night hangs with friends.

Recorded/mixed/produced by Spud Thompson at Elusive Creative Studios and mastered by Nick Franklin, ‘I Got Mine’ features a potpourri of instrumentation, including the transcendent strings of Robyn Blann and the trumpeting talents of Tobias Bottrall.

lyrics

Got your job in 98’
Moved your wife from interstate
Had two kids before you stopped to think

Overtime it all went wrong
She packed the suitcase, they were gone
Now you eat takeaway over the sink

Head between your elbows
Your mind is in a fog
Thinking bout’ the gallows
But who will feed the dog?

Your seven figures living high life
You’re working 9-5 with no time
You don’t feel fine
You don’t feel fine
I’m at the bottom living low life
I do what I want with my time
You got your shitttttttt
And I got mine

Sally gets home after dark
Penthouse views of central park
Appliances of vibrant retro blue
Committed husband 30 years
Who sacrificed his own career
Doesn’t think he sees enough of you

But Jessie from accounting,
A shoulder to lean on
Soon they are eloping
He’s going going gone

Your seven figures living high life
You’re working 9-5 with no time
You don’t feel fine
You don’t feel fine
I’m at the bottom living low life
I do what I want with my time
You got your shitttttttt
And I got mine

‘whistle solo’

Been living in a caravan
Don’t make enough to pay the man
Safe to say I’m barely holding on
But I’m here doing what I love
Mangey like a city dove
I’ll fly anywhere I can belongggggggg

Your seven figures living high life
You’re working 9-5 with no time
You don’t feel fine
You don’t feel fine
I’m at the bottom living low life
I do what I want with my time
You got your shitttttttt
And I got mine

You got your shitttttttt
And I got mine
