2.
you crease unfolding layers waving highly with the gusts they can't interview you babe you spin between the glaciers and you glance beneath the rusts of the generations laid east of nowhere is your prison when you raise up off the Earth it's the planet where you stay but it don't concern you cause you're just like him you pick up where you need to and you don't know how it works you're the only one who'll say that it don't concern you cause you're just like him and you don't need to tell your story to no papers or no magazines again
3.
nobody's talking baby - nobody's making a sound they can't move their bodies - nobody's wearing a smile so tell me why you came here and paid your way and please tell me why you got nothin' to say cross your arms and shake your leg - you're closed up tight you move the way they want you to - all through the night so tell me why you stand there and won't let me take you away the way you're speaking to me I got nothin' to say you worry yourself to death baby - trying to be loved you gotta try to please yourself - and not everyone so tell me why you'd want me to sleep on through the day and please tell me why you got nothin' to say

about

The song "Hurt My Pride" was featured as the 'Coolest Song In The World' on Little Steven's Underground Garage radio show on March 3rd, 2013!!!

"Every time Sam Lunsford releases a record I give thanks. Hurt My Pride is the single with attitude. It sounds like Lunsford has been listening to Love and Them. It’s full of spite, antipathy and of course tons of melody." - The Finest Kiss


"My immediate reaction was that “Hurt My Pride”, one of the oldest compositions, is the strongest Young Sinclairs song to date. Taking a credible step from folk-rock into garage or even freakbeat territory, the vocal is delivered with real attitude. It’s a straightforward and no-nonsense track and with that we already have a contender for single of the year 2013. The first b-side “Someone Like the Hawk” veers straight back into gentle folk, bathed in 12-string picking that sounds like it was laid down after many listens to comps like Byrds Won’t Fly Today (Misty Lane). The last track “Nothin’ to Say” is the biggest departure for the group however, with its crude frat-rock sound. It works very well, perhaps the closest they’ve come to something with enough of a beat to play to a dancefloor. The Kingsmen would be a good reference point, but it also reminds me of “Night of the Phantom” by Larry & the Blue Notes." - Krister Bladh, Record Turnover
