Lyrics: [F.RIEBL/H.ANGUS]
Sing now muse I won’t be scared
She’s wearing flowers not snakes up in her hair tonight
And love we’ve been around before
We washed up on the old shore but it’s new tonight
‘It’s only light’ she said
‘But we are liars to be free’
Ooh ooh ooh we’ll steal the light to see
The hour falls we fall to dance
Now sirens and the marching bands sing ‘it’s nothing but chance tonight’
The billion ones and many few
And everyone I never new they’re here tonight
‘It’s only light’ we said
But we are liars to be free
Ooh ooh ooh we’ll steal the light to see
What if I’m lonely?
What if the skies should fall and disappear?
For one night only
Open your eyes and run into the clear
So if I may, what if I say
‘It’s good to have you here!’
She said ‘If you lead I’ll come along
And if you need me there I’ll sing your song tonight
And all that glows and all that shines
And all we leave behind will keep them warm tonight
‘It’s only light’ I said
But we are liars to be free
Ooh ooh ooh we’ll steal the light to see
What if I’m lonely?
What if the skies should fall and disappear?
For one night only
Open your eyes and run into the clear
I love you only
Until the skies fall down and disappear
So if I may, what if I say
‘It’s good to have you here!’
Oh oh oh…
About:
Formed in Melbourne, Australia and adored the world over, The Cat Empire is a musical success story that continues to be written. Throughout their 20 year career, the band's stratospheric trajectory has continued unabated, becoming one of Australia's most successful musical exports, growing an army of ardent fans at home and abroad.
Since their teens, the six bound together by a love of music, and bolstered by the career-long guidance of Manager Correne Wilkie, have gone about the business of crafting infectious, genre-embracing anthems and releasing chart-topping, multi-platinum albums to take to the live stage. It was not unusual to find the band performing on main stage bills at iconic international festivals, selling out the world's most famous arenas, mobbed by supporters and media at airports in Spain, and appearing on top rating T.V. shows like Letterman and Leno.
In September 2021, The Cat Empire announced that after 20 years, the band's original line-up would play their final shows together, culminating in a massive show and virtual concert from their hometown of Melbourne in December.
The next chapter of The Cat Empire begins with founding members Felix Riebl and Ollie McGill stepping forward with "a re-imagined, vibrant, cross-cultural, and joyful collective of musicians and artists", with new music planned for 2022.
The Cat Empire:
Vocals: Felix Riebl
Vocals & Trumpet: Harry James Angus
Keys: Ollie McGill
Drums: Will Hull-Brown
Bass: Ryan Monro
DJ: Jamshid “Jumps” Khadiwala

Still one of the best musicians to ever come out of Australia. They were never marketed well enough for the talent they produce but they did become the world's best kept secret.
next to "Clearwater beach # 1 beach ", just the way we like it in St. Pete where I saw TCE front row center an hour after buying a ticket for $40. (Pssst. Come to tourist-free Passe-A-Grill beach instead.)
I was in Melbourne city walking past flinders street station saw a massive crowd at federation square across the road and wanted to see what all the fuss was and I made way there and was in amongst the crowd when all of a sudden these guys began playing music so I stayed for the entire show. First time I have ever been to a full blown concert that was out in the public and all for free! First time I have ever been moved to tear by music and especially when I heard the crowd singing along to their song called “all night loud”! I cried because I felt the love the crowd had for these guys it was such a sweet moment to be alive, a memory I wish I could show/share with my family and friends because you have to be at their concerts to really experience And appreciate true music that is fun, exciting and that is down right honest. That was the moment I became a fan of this band. Thank you cat empire for your service!
I was there too! On my friend's shoulders to see! It was an awesome night! :)
I was there too!!! 😍🥰❤ Great night 🎉 🌙
I am somewhere in the middle of that crowd. It was filmed at the first White Night in Melbourne. They don't have bands under "the clocks" at following WHite Nights.
The band that makes me most proud to be from Australia
so many years later and my heart still jumps when I listen to this band
🧡
Same!!!
Same. It's like some sort of magic that has a hold over me and my life. Can't explain it.
For all of you that haven't seen them live yet, you have to. They are unreal, so much fun!
Can I just say, it's good to have you here, guys.
I still remember when I first saw you guys. I was away from home the first time in my life and unsure. You all took your time and made me so happy and way less homesick. I will always have a soft spot for you, always.
Always.
this was 10 years ago? holy shit time flies
Can't believe the band is now a past thing! I wish there's gonna have something else to put in our eardrums in a near futur ! You were not just givin a show! You were just givin us a chance to be a part of the party with you, at any show! God bless you guys! You're wellcome in Québec anytime!✌
Gonna miss seeing them live in montreal! Always a great time
I have seem them three times before. Brilliant 👏
they are back! They have a new line up. But i saw them last night in Spain. And they were as good as ever.
@2:25 that trumpet just blasts all negative thoughts away with its power
How I miss your concerts. The energy. Vancouver, love, bruised ribs pressed into the bars, full of dance and whole face smiles. I miss you guys around here. I can’t wait for those times. You are a wonderful light. So good to watch you play
Скоро играть будут на Красной площади в Москве
Ska at it's best 👌
Seriously I’m ten years old and I can’t stop listen to this band
Nina van Rongen i loved them as a kid ❤️ jamming with my 5 yr old sis to them rn
These guys are a rift of heavenly music.
From time to time, I come back to this video to remind me that there is good music out there. I first listened to this when I was 16 in 2014 because for some reason we have an Australian channel here in the Philippines and every 3 AM, Rage was on and this was featured there once. I fell in love with this song since.
How i have not heard of this band? They are incredible!
Great show in qc city last week ❤ front row forever fan!!
WONDERFUL ENVIRONMENT
I ve only just found this band omg they are fabulous
Same. Theyre in Chicago tonight. My daughters going.
X2 y eso que no se inglés xd me lo encontré en recomendados sugerencias UA-cam me recomendó una de sus canciones y ahora estoy escuchando algunas de sus canciones
I went to see them while I was in Portugal on holiday about 7 years ago, and I haven't stopped listening to them!! Very cool group!!
I was driving around in the mountains and as soon as i turn the corner to see a amazing view i hear "what if im lonely" and i could tell it was gonna be a good day
why is this not the biggest band on the planet, why.
This is real music.i want you to know that there are many fans in korea.
One of the best bands ever
So great to see our beautiful Melbourne in this video.
Extremely underrated Band! Propa
I have seen them live 3 times now. My son introduced me to their music.
last night at the Metro in Sydney we saw cat empire once again and they were as brilliant as ever. We screamed, danced, yelled, swayed and were filled with the energy of an amazing evening with an amazing crowd vibe and amazing group who gave it all and left nothing on the stage.
Thanks for coming to Pub Choir in Brisbane, Felix! What a top night. Hope we made you proud.
The singer is special. He's got something different and great!
Anyone who can sit still while this is playing is dead.
Whoa oh oh oooooh-o-o-o-oooohhh-ooooh-ooooh-ooooh-ooooh-o-o-ooooohhhh!!!!
I miss u ❤
There are so many good things about this band. I've been a fan for possibly 8 years and every album is brilliant and they are excellent as a live band :D
The guy standing on the traffic light at 3:07 wins at life
This band is the band every other band wants to be..
This used to be one of my go-to songs until a couple of years... This band is so underrated. Their music is great and does what music should do- Make u happy, soothe ur soul and calm ur mind! ❤

Cat empire is one of my favourite bands
My favourite music video, because it shows Melbourne 😍
Just sang with Felix tonight at Brisbane Pub Choir. FANTASTIC!!
I remember you guys from years ago when you performed live in NZ at the Waikato University. Changed my life for the better, got me into music, learned to play drums and trumpet just so I could play a couple of your songs. All in all... thanks!

One word, and that is simply JOY. Thanks for the awesome music and video!
Toujours aussi excellent!!!##
One of the best bands
Up on the observation deck feeling toasty.... sharing the light.... :)
I already loved this band before this song came out, the when it was released as their new song.... incredible
amo a este grupo :(
I love you guys! Such positive energy! I saw you in Boston at the Royale in April 2015. BEST show I've EVER been to. PLEASE come back to the states soon! You are such a high point of my life! MEOW!!!!!!!
they started over 10 years ago, you would expect the sound of a band to change in that time. change is good, it promotes new listeners and keeps music interesting. I, for one, love the new sound, and if anything this album sounds like it's getting the closest to the roots of the cat empire since two shoes!
No one can know how much I love this band and how excited I am I see them this September! This song is amazing, as are all of them :)
Awesome song! Thank s guys! :)
