Shame on You 03:50
I guess what they said, all was true There's no way around to what's been used There's no way of fixing what's been ruined Shame on you Most songs tend to remind me of you It's like they are laughing at my gloom Oh, tell me what am i to do When music's not a kind refuge I'd love to Forget you So I wrote this song to remember to forget you And these words remind me not to be a fool for you It's too late to be such a fool It's all inescapable Unavoidable and all part of the consequence But it's hard to reconcile with the unstoppable When there's so much of us we've yet to learn. I guess what that song said, all was true That breaking hearts never break in twos; That one's bound to move to start anew The other one's left so resentful But I've got to Forget you So i wrote this song to remember to forget you And these words remind me not to be a fool for you I'm too old to be such a fool It's all inescapable Unavoidable and all part of the consequence But it's hard to reconcile with the unstoppable When there's so much of you I've yet to learn. I guess what they said, all was true. There's no way around to what's been used There's no way of fixing what's been ruined Shame on you

Skin 04:22
Head high above the water So high I can't see what's under Under your skin Inked your name on my shoulder There's no need for you to falter. Now you're my skin I knew it wouldn't be easy I went back on all I believed in Just to hold you. I knew it wouldn't be easy I let myself in too early Just to hold you Just lean a little closer This close and let us listen What's under your skin I knew it wouldn't be easy I went back on all I believed in Just to hold you. I knew it wouldn't be easy I let myself in too early Just to hold you

To Lost Love 03:59
Noise in the silence, sometimes I feel you I'm not a fighter; I let my walls come down Laid down my weapon, but deep in the darkness is that you reloading the gun that we all call love? You planted in me a seed of wanting someone (someone) When all I've ever done, was knowing that I needed no one It all comes down to lost love; it'd break you, or make you you see, it's no place for logic or reason Let's make a toast to lost love; drink up and count the nights again you know I'll take that bullet anyway It all comes down to lost love; it'd break you, or make you you see, it's no place for logic or reason Let's make a toast to lost love; drink up and count the fights again you know the night is early anyway It all comes down to lost love; it'd break you, or make you you see, it's no place for logic or reason Let's make a toast to lost love; I'll probably sing this again I guess we're built this way we'll need a couple more of beers you know I'll take that bullet anyway Calm in the loudness, now I can't feel you I'll be a fighter and start building walls from here

I don't know which way to go I thought that you might know But you wouldn't say a word You left me stuck in all your dirt Here we go Motionless on this open road Here we go If only you could see, what I see don't you think We could be anything? If only you could see, what I see don't you think Your heart would be complete? No one has laid foot in this arc Did you creep in in the dark? But now you wouldn't say word You think my heart is too absurd So here we go Motionless on this open road Here we go If only you could see, what I see Everything would be Within our reach to keep? If only you could see, what I see Darling, don't you think your heart would be... Words have lost their meanings Songs have lost their melodies I am incomplete Here we go Motionless on this open road Here we go If only you could see, what I see don't you think We could be anything If only you could see, what I see don't you think We could do anything If only you could see, what I see Everything would be Within our reach to keep If only you could see, what I see Darling, don't you think Your heart would be complete? Then I would be complete.

about

Jaime Wong's first EP debuted at #2 on Singapore's iTunes charts and was launched at a sold-out show in May 2015. The EP has been described as a "gorgeous folk-pop suite dedicated to lost love" and "essential" by Power of Pop.

"...and it is this rawness that fills Wong’s debut effort. There is an intimacy here that connects with those who listen; the simplicity of a voice and a guitar often lost on landscapes that function on hustle and bustle. Jaime Wong is a welcome surprise."- JUICE Singapore

"...it's in her first EP, a wandering tribute to lost love, and a compilation of her most heartfelt songs to date, that Jaime Wong seems to have found her true voice. Read between the self-penned lines, and you'll find dreamy, evocative vocals that make her musings that more profound."- Nylon Singapore

"Jaime Wong – a rising local artist that recorded the eponymous EP with Leonard Soosay of Snakeweed Studios – gives a polished account of lost love, as she takes the listener on a journey from the beginning to the destination; from the breakup to the wake up. Her soothing voice carefully navigates the nicely coordinated harmonies – from major to minor – in a raw vocal tenacity that is in no way representative of how new she might be to the local music circle."- CATALOG MAGAZINE

"If music were molecules, I’d imagine them to be hovering around my workstation, not quite diffusing far. These were shy music molecules, designed to get you to sit a little closer and offer your ear to listen in closely - like Jaime is whispering a secret for you alone. It’s got a private personality, so vulnerable and intimate..."- Jump Into The Limbo
