Blue Hour

about

'Blue Hour', taken from her new EP, Polar Night, was inspired by the blue light cast over the fjord when the sun doesn't rise above the horizon during the polar darkness.

In January 2023, Jodie Marie travelled above the Arctic Circle to write new music as part of an artist residency with help from Arts Council Wales International Opportunities Fund. Spending just over 3 weeks alone on Seiland island, Norway in almost 24hour darkness writing music for her 4th album. The isolation and beauty that the island provided ended up inspiring her to not only write towards her 4th album, but also to create her latest 6 track EP, Polar Night (set for release 5th May 2023) which was directly inspired by her time there.

lyrics

Sitting here by candlelight
I’m lonely but I feel alright
I am known to run away
When life gets hard I feel I just can’t stay.
But I only ever want you around
And I wish that you could see what I see now.
In the blue hour
The blue hour
Where the sun doesn’t rise
Only moments of light
The perfect shade of blue
Surrounded by beauty
But all I see is you.
Mostly dark throughout the day
The silence loud, a heavy weight
I cry it out, I reminisce
I can’t explain how much I’ve needed this.
But I only ever want you around
And I wish that you could see what I see now.
In the blue hour
The blue hour
Where the sun doesn’t rise
Only moments of light
The perfect shade of blue
Surrounded by beauty
But all I see is you...
In the blue hour
The blue hour
Where the sun doesn’t rise
Only moments of light
The perfect shade of blue
Surrounded by beauty
But
