My first studio single of the new decade, released on 30/03/20.
Written in collaboration with Belgian actress, psychologist & singer, Jilly Lukkesen, back in March 2019 in Robinialand, Belgium, the day after an epic Tripple-Birthday Bash & Divorce Party jam.
Video by Ciara Rickard with graphics by me, Liam S Rickard & additional footage from Hannelore Karmel Juurikas.

I wish I was a goldfish so I could swim my troubles away
how I wish I was a flower,
so you would look at me for hours
and maybe put me in your hair
How I wish I was a shower, baby,
so I could wash away your sorrows and your cares
I wish I was a goldfish so I could forget yesterday
