Nerina In The Press
Thu 10th March 2011
Nerina is back with a new album 'Year Of The Wolf' and has been featured on numerous music blogs & news sites since the announcement of the new record.
Nerina returns in style with her new album 'Year of the Wolf'. The album released on 30 May is Nerina's first release on Geffen Records.
Produced entirely with Britpop guitar legend Bernard Butler, 'Year Of The Wolf' is, simply put, the accumulation of Nerina’s talents honed over the years. It runs the gamut of Nerina’s love of euphoric pop songs with big heart-bursting choruses like lead single 'Put Your Hands Up', which will be released 23 May - ramped up to even more joyous heights by Butler’s stomping widescreen production - to the meditative folk-soul of 'Grace', bridging the gap between pop and art with effortless grace.
Much of 'Year Of The Wolf' was written and recorded during Nerina’s pregnancy last year, and ranges from the heady va-va-voom of 'Turn Me On Again' (“People over-intellectualise pop sometimes – good pop should be three and half minutes about sex really,” she succinctly states) to the sweeping, classical rhapsody of 'History Boys', a personal reaction to the news footage of bereaved mothers aired during the Chilcot Inquiry (“the most emotional, and political, song I’ve ever written”).
Pre-order details will be coming soon.

Lyrics:
I woke up late today
Actually I do that everyday
Got no place to be seen
Im not part of a scene
Im a genius loser
Keeping counsel with my own opinion
President of the state that Im in
Should I just stay in bed?
Should I live in my head?
Oh God, so many questions to ask
Oh, you could call me lazy
I think of it as taking my time
Cos I dont want to do what I dont want to do
Im the queen refusenik
[CHORUS]
But - oh my God if I was somebody Id be doing it all just fine
But Im a real late starter
So Im making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody youd be kissing my arse right now
But Im so polite I do it all of the time
I missed my calling in life
Oh well.
Day by day I wonder
If I will be torn asunder
By these things that I know that nobody else knows
Or maybe its the drinking
Kids we should consult a Bible
Everybody needs a sign - oh!
Bless the birds and the bees
The flowers and trees
And blessed be the slacker
[CHORUS]
But - oh my God if I was somebody Id be doing it all just fine
But Im a real late starter
So Im making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody youd be kissing my arse right now
But Im so polite I do this all of the time
I missed my calling in life
You must be having a laugh?
Oh God youre having a laugh!
No point in worrying if my days a disaster
Inside my little head Im happy ever after
Yes I am
[CHORUS]
Oh my God if I was somebody Id be doing it all just fine
But Im a real late starter
So Im making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody youd be kissing my arse right now
But Im so polite
I missed my calling in life
[CHORUS]
Oh my God if I was somebody Id be doing it all just fine
But Im a real late starter
So Im making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody youd be kissing my arse right now
But Im so polite I do this all of the time
I missed my calling in life
Oh what am I like?
Yeah well.

'Real Late Starter' - Single Release Oct 19th 2009
Sat 29th August 2009
Nerina Pallot
‘Real Late Starter’
Released October 19th 2009
Taken from the brand new album ‘The Graduate’ out on October 5th
More than three years after the gold-selling Fires, Nerina Pallot has shaken up her sound, shrugged off the spectre of singer/songwriter and produced an album of clever, classy pop, including the brand new single ‘Real Late Starter.’
This stunning first single sets sassy, self-deprecating lyrics to up-tempo piano-pop that nods to ‘70s Elton John and one of Pallot’s more recent favourite bands, Scissor Sisters.
“Real Late Starter I began when I was touring with James Blunt three years ago,” explains Pallot. “I felt like a real loser, making my way to gigs on a train with my mate who was my tour manager while James was helicoptering in. I’d hear him arriving overhead and think ‘That’ll be me one day’ but it didn’t happen. I came home and, yes, still felt like a loser!
“I had so much fun when I came to finish that song because by then I was happy. There’s a real sense of ‘Yeah, sometimes life is shit, but hey, I’m actually doing okay’. Everyone feels like that from time to time and when I play it live, people love it. They seem to get it straight away.”
After working with some of the world’s biggest producers, Nerina felt that only she was able to realise her own sound by taking the reins and producing the album herself. ‘The Graduate’ took shape after two turbulent years in Pallot’s life. The first found her struggling with any sustained creativity in the midst of the promotion and touring in support of Fires. The second was a case of writer’s block caused by meeting and marrying her husband, who also hails from Pallot’s homeland of Jersey. The problem was one not often found in pop – she was too content to want to write songs.
“The idea of me writing tortured lyrics went out the window,” laughs Pallot. “After years of living out of a suitcase, watching my personal life fall apart and drinking too much, I was suddenly happier than I’ve ever been. At one stage, I wasn’t sure I’d ever make another album. I loved just being normal, having a home to go to and finally being able to attend friends’ birthday parties. I could have written a song about my fantastic fish terrine, but I doubt anyone would have wanted to hear it.”
Pallot’s sense of self-sufficiency grew when she returned to material she had written on the road touring Fires, but never finished. Realising she already had several great songs, she set about completing them, determined to write and produce the album herself. The result is a collection of classy, sophisticated pop songs that really showcase the talent of one of our more outstanding home-grown recording artists.
'The Graduate'
Fri 28th August 2009
Nerina Pallots third studio album The Graduate shall be released on Oct 5th 2009.
Nerina Pallot!!
Mon 19th May 2008
Nerina Pallot is a British musician who comes from a little island in the English Channel called Jersey, where the name Pallot is about as exotic as Smith anywhere else on the planet. Everybody knows everybody, everybody is quite possibly related to everybody, but this means that you can walk down the high street and see all your mates, and meet your future spouse in primary school. (True story, enquire within for further details.)
Dear Frustrated Superstar
Mon 31st December 2001
In 2001, Nerina released her first album, Dear Frustrated Superstar, which she disowned for a bit because nobody really bought it and it got some dodgy reviews, which is a shame because it’s a lovely album really and nobody should disown something because they might be the only person who likes it. Perhaps it is time, or age, or lost brain cells, or because Gary Barlow appears to have been inspired by it, but while she thinks that title is still a bit silly and its meaning immediately misconstrued - it’s addressed to YOU, dear listener, YOU; You are the frustrated superstar in this equation – Nerina put it on her gramophone the other day and did not immediately remove it.
