BEN LEE "awake is the new sleep" cd, 2005
album chart placings: #5 Australia
singles chart placings:
"gamble everything for love"..#39 AU.
"catch my disease................#27 AU.
"into the dark".....................#97 AU.
"we're all in this together".....#59 AU.
apparently this was Ben's fifth solo studio set, plus whatever he did with his band Noise Addict, whom i have never heard of...
he is an Aussie born Jew whose music would be what i'd have to call alt-folk/folk-pop?!
his songs are catchy especially my favourite one on here which also is a bit tongue-in-cheek with its lyrics...
not a bad album IMO, shame he celebrates his birthday on 9/11 though!
