about

From the bold opening note, to the hushed closing sentiment, On The Right Side oozes with confidence and self-assurance. Speaking on the background of the song, Moylan says ‘I had been seeing this guy who made me feel like I needed to change to be worthy of someone like him. Writing this song helped me to tackle the situation with a sense of humour. Instead of seeing it as my fault, I chose to see it as his loss’.
Musically, this song paints a picture. The drums and acoustic guitar form the canvas on which the velvet vocals create an evocative scene. This scene is delicately embellished by the whirling piano and the rich double bass and we are presented with a truly beautiful piece, guaranteed to resonate with the listener.

lyrics

It's fine, you're not out of line and I wouldn't wanna waste your time,
You're not mine but I'm kind of inclined to jump the gun when I feel it's right,
Cos I'd been waiting' for someone like you to come along,
And eye me up, and tie me down.

Cos, I've been practicin' my winkin' in the mirror,
I've got my cheeky smile down to a T,
I'd even restricted myself to the left side of the bed,
Which means that the right side's free.

On the rights side, get on the right side of me,
On the right side, on the right side hunny,
On the right side, get on the right side of me,
On the right side.

What a thing to say, I must be loosin' my mind,
But I wish you'd go away or just stop being so damn unkind,
Cos' your changin' me for the worse and it's a curse,
The fact that I would be so keen and try so hard to get you.

Cos, I've been practicin' my winkin' in the mirror,
I've got my cheeky smile down to a T,
I'd even restricted myself to the left side of the bed,
Which means that the right side, hunny it's free.

On the rights side, get on the right side of me,
On the right side, on the right side baby,
On the right side, get on the right side of me,
On the right side.

On the rights side, get on the right side of me,
On the right side, on the right side baby,
On the right side, get on the right side of me,
On the right side.

I think you know how you effect me,
I think you know you got me loosin' it.
I think you know how you effect me,
I think you know there's no diffusin' it.
I think you know how you effect me,
I think you know and you're abusin' it.
I think you know,
But you don't know your luck.
