Love’n’Joy - Lure of Fortune (By Anton Pushkar) As she flashes eyes Day turns into night When she tips the light I lose my final guide Every sound's allure I'm standing paralysed Every word is cure I'm in her lullaby Let go of she said (Lay down your bow) Come get loose, she said (We'll go above) Hum your tune instead (My mourning dove) Let's get close again (Like hand and glove) Will you grab the fortune when she rolls at length of arms Never miss it, don't you, losing chances ain't no fun Will you grab the fortune when she's smiling at you so warm Regret will surly hunt you, specially with the one undone As she holds my dice I can not roll them twice Summer wind you blow But I can't hear you’re wise Ocean waves she rules Magnitudes of moons Outer space she fools How can I refrain Let go of (she said) (Lay down your bow) Come get loose (she said) (We'll go above) Hum your tune instead (My mourning dove) Let's get close again (Like hand and glove) Will you grab the fortune when she rolls at length of arms (get it right now, get it get it right now) Never miss it, don't you, losing chances ain't no fun ( get it right now, get it get it right now) Will you grab the fortune by her shiny peacock tail (get it right now, get it get it right now) Was it her or was it late June, pain will teach you to unveil (get it right now, get it get it right now) Let go of (she said) (Lay down your bow) Come get loose (she said) (We'll go above) Hum your tune instead (My mourning dove) Let's get close again (I’ll show you love)

Love’n’Joy - Omodada Gift (By Anton Pushkar) Can't see Elephant in the sky Cellophane life telling lots of lies
 Tunnel vision of my mind Will this mission make me blind Lend me your eyes, I want to see it just like you Send me a third ear, two of mine astray in harmony Wake me up, time to the top, all the world is yawning Morning Sun, shiny one, help me while I'm going To the top (Up and down, when the sun goes down And the sun goes up, and the sun goes down, Right after sun all his sons go down All the trees and the leaves and the bees All the world breathe out in ease When the golden sun goes up Straight up to the top) Can you tell apart blue from white Lately, I've been far from light Telephone line tell on your life Time to leave it all behind Lend me your eyes, I want to see it just like you Drip me your tears, melt my soul in the sounds of melodies Take me up, time to the top, when all the world is frowning Morning Sun, shiny one, help me while I'm going To the top (Up and down, when the sun goes down And the sun goes up, and the sun goes down, Right after sun all his sons go down All the trees and the leaves and the bees All the world breathe out in ease When the golden sun goes up Straight up to the top) Now when you climbed that high Take look down if there's a light Can you see we are one now Brittle shiny drops reflecting Sun Wake my up, time to the top, to the top we're going Morning sun, shiny one, free me up from yawning Take me up right to the top, I want to see the horizon Morning sun, shiny one, help me while I'm rising To the top (Up and down, when the sun goes down And the sun goes up, and the sun goes down, Right with the sun, all his sons go down All the trees and the leaves and the bees All the world breathe out in ease When the golden sun goes up Straight on to the top) Never been this high before Upholding sunny glow Now I'm falling in to deep Blue Ocean in my sleep

about

"The shifts in mood keep ‘Half Home’ from sticking in one particular emotional state. Blending the dynamics and unpredictability gives an opportunity for each song to shine in its own way. In addition to the classic guitar vibe, ‘Half Home’ is saturated with ethnic components such as the Sopilka (Ukrainian wind instrument) Also, various kinds of percussion instruments involved in the recording create layered atmospheres."
-IT'S PSYCHEDELIC BABY

“Their music has a dreamy quality, and harks back to the golden age of 60s and 70s British pop and trippy psychedelica. The spirit of a new, resurgent Ukrainian rock music.”
-EUROPAVOX

"Three ukranians mad for brit-pop and 60s psychedelia. Heaven knows how they manage such convincingly english-sounding vocals, but this is very impressive”
-2XS ROCKS

“Three men united by a deep love for the classic 60s sound, psychedelia, british pop, a sense of optimism and positivity, that’s Ukrainian band Love’n’Joy. Tapping into what they perceive to be the journey of "tribal collective unconsciousness" soundtracked by the retro genre.”

Love'n'Joy Kyiv, Ukraine

The Kyiv-based Ukrainian band Love’n’Joy announces the release of their 2nd LP titled “Half Home”.

The chosen title “Half Home” turned out to be a kind of prophecy. The recording and mixing of the album was completed on February 21 in Kyiv at the CrimyRec studio, exactly 3 days before the start of the full-scale russian invasion of Ukraine.
