about

‘Wholesome You’ is the title of Numbers Don‘t Count‘s dylanesque debut single. Evoking associations with the 60s and 70s Wholesome You is the perfect example for the band’s sound. Catchy songwriting meets reflective moods about moral conflicts of our times.

lyrics

He woke up
plain naked
in the middle of the street
and people told him
by the looks in their eyes
they don’t enjoy what they see

There’s a wedding
so peaceful
everybody’s wearing white
but she, she confused the juice
with the booze in the tun
And found herself in bed with the bride

Their friends said it was obvious
you’re acting to oblivious
when you’re hot
and now there’s nothing
you can really say
there’s nothing
you can really do
Wholesome you
keeps breaking all the rules

I was stuck in O’hare
while my girlfriend was holding her tears
I said officer please
I’m not a terrorist
I just haven’t got laid in a year

My friends said it was obvious
you’re acting to oblivious
and now there’s nothing
you can really do
there’s nothing
you can really say
Wholesome you
keeps spoiling every day

Your friends say it was obvious
you’re acting to oblivious
and now there’s nothing
you can really do
there’s nothing
you can really say
Wholesome you
keeps spoiling every day

Numbers Don't Count Berlin, Germany

The nostalgic folk rock duo members, Mani Shimmers and Marcel B., grew up in the countryside of North-West Germany. Both felt that the peace and quiet of their home towns allowed for their reflective moods to grow. Their views from the inside out and outside in, slightly out of focus, are present in their always somehow alienated songs. ... more
