A catchy, cool, stylish fusion of indie and electro-pop by the classically trained, California-born, Vienna-based Iranian-Austrian artist, inspired by reading Patti Smith and Sam Shepard’s play of the same title, reimagining the play’s characters as Angel and Cowboy, and out now on Stones Throw Records. To explore and enjoy moe by Sophie Royer, including her fourth album Young-Girl Forever (2024), see also the other embedded links below.
Angel Jane has got it coming, she yells out into the crowd, on the microphone,
“Grab somebody sexy and tell them hey! Give me everything tonight, wanna see you come alive,”
Angel Jane has got it coming, she yells out to the crowd, on the microphone,
like so many nights before, but something feels quite off tonight
She doesn’t recognize the faces staring back at her, expressions are surprised
Get off your tail and cook, hit me where it hurts
Just don’t stand there doing nothing, I don’t know what’s worse
You and your cowboy mouth, playing in the dirt
When you call me angel Jane I know I’m not the first
Angel Jane can’t see it coming, and the folks are unimpressed,
As she’s walking off stage left
Audience of one she’s explicitly addressed
Iridescent and afraid that she may have overstayed
Freezing in the spotlight down on Sunset Boulevard,
Yelling even louder now, to the last one in the crowd
Get off your tail and cook, hit me where it hurts
Just don’t stand there doing nothing, I don’t know what’s worse
You and your cowboy mouth, playing in the dirt
When you call me angel Jane I know I’m not the first
Great news, luck is crashing through the trees
Stage cues, tell me what I’m meant to be
Don’t laugh, maybe there’s a reason to rhyme
Stage cues, and everybody’s laughing on my dime
