about
The introvert anti-star Penny Police gets ready for Reeperbahn Festival and release the new single "There Is More". It's the 3rd single from her long-awaited upcoming album ‘Be Lucky.
On September 27 the new album from Penny Police will be released and the expectations are very high on top of her two beautiful singles 'Mirror, Mirror' and 'Make It Move', which has impressed audiences at home in Denmark where they are both in rotation on the Danish National Radio, and in UK where she has received praise from Clash Magazine and The Line of Best Fit.
The 3rd single will be released on September 13. 'There Is More' is captivating with its effective use of anaphors in its lyrical structure, its catchy chorus and surprises with a children's choir and perhaps a little reference to Beyoncé.
The new album is written to Marie’s daughter, and the new single 'There is More' is about “hoping that she will discover and see everything that lies between the cracks and that she will discover things in her own way and make up her own experiences,” says Marie.
Nothing is black and white and by turning our perspective upside down once in a while you will discover new ways you never knew existed.
lyrics
There’s more than this, there’s more than that
There’s more than white, there’s more than black
There’s more than yes, there’s more than no
There’s more than stay, there’s more than go
There’s more than east, there’s more than west
There’s more than right, there’s more than left
There’s more than high, there’s more than low
There’s more than fast, there’s more than slow
We’re the boys, we’re the girls who run the world
Everything’s gonna die if we don’t keep it alive
Has to be more than working 9 to 5
Has to be more than struggles all the time
Has to be more than a house, a lawn to mow
Has to be more than yaddiadioh
Can you feel the change?
We can be the change
A little day by day
Can you feel the change?
We can start today
(When if not now?)
(Where if not here?)
(Who if not us?)

Penny Police is the alias of Copenhagen based singer and songwriter Marie Fjeldsted, who has impressed with her alternative
songwriting and her airy voice.
She has been compared to Agnes Obel and Emiliana Torrini but truly has found her own niche as Kieron Tyler from MOJO Magazine pointed out when he made her a highlight at SPOT Festival: "Penny Police is way ahead in the way she thinks music"....more
