  • Pretty Little Things Test Print
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    A test print copy of "Pretty Little Things" on clear vinyl with a little black fading.
    Limited to 5 test prints. Test print vinyls are issued to the artist when doing a run of vinyl records. They're literally "test copies" for the artist to listen to and check the audio quality before pressing the actual record. Thus, they are very rare and few.
    They come without an actual cover, but I'll throw in a couple of extra gimmicks.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Pretty Little Things via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Silver
Hold these golden moments, let them come alive. Along the river's edge with water running.
And the boat was there for Benjamin and I - it was holding a small bag with our belongings.
In the cabin there, I saw you turn on the lights, while reading all these old and crumbled letters.
Rain was coming down and drumming on your roof. I was wearing leather boots against the weather.

And I hope you understand that your dreams are made of silver.
So don't you tell them to a man and know that some things are forever.

All the thoughts and all the things I said were lies on the ferry to this island of your own.
All the drinks when we were thirsty on this ride - I would swallow all this liquor once again.
All the paper wasted and the books alike. All these presents in a suitcase full of lies.
All the scars and all these marks along your back. A punishment for a long forgotten crime.

And the woods are burning, burning oh so bright,
And the past and all these sheets are going down.

Ben Hermanski Ibbenbüren, Germany

Ben likes to hold on to moments and give them away on stage. To you.
In his songs and the stories that he tells.

Ben Hermanski is an observer, a sensitive writer. A finder of melodies both engaging, catchy and familiar; a teller of stories both true and remote at the same time.

He keeps his eyes closed on stage, because these moments are for giving. To you. ... more
