After writing hundreds of songs over the last 10+ years, NYC based singer/songwriter Brian Delaney is now primed to launch his first official solo project: BRKN BLVD. His debut single, “Over the Rainbow”, is an upbeat, angsty Pop jam that is just as feel-good as it is depressing. In collaboration with buddy and secret-weapon CHYLD, who drops off the second verse and also happens to be the songs producer, this first offering brings hella relatable lyrics. slick production and a soulful sauce that keeps you locked in from beginning to end. The perfect first release to get fans acquainted with his sound and give them an idea of what they can expect from the brand-new project, “Over the Rainbow”, is just the vibe we need right now.
Beyond being the first single for BRKN BLVD, “Over the Rainbow”, also stands to be the debut release for newly launched, NYC-based independent RockDafuqOut Records. Fighting against the odds in an oversaturated market controlled by tastemakers and bankrolls, RockDafuqOut Records aims to be a breath of fresh air; promising to focus on the music and let passion lead the way.

lyrics
We could make believe
The grass is greener
On the other side
But even if it rains
It doesn’t mean that
The sun gon’ shine
Searching for a place called paradise
That we might never find
So even on my darkest days
I’ll shine this little light of mine
So, I’ll be somewhere
Over the rainbow
Searching for gold
For gold, for gold, for gold
For gold, for gold, for gold
And they say don’t go
Chasing those waterfalls
What do they know?
They don’t really know ‘bout me
Said, they don’t really know ‘bout me
Cus I can’t stand the raindrops
Tapping my rooftop
Breaking me down
Breaking me down, down, down
Breaking me down, down, down
Give me the sunshine
I need this one time
Break from the clouds
Where did all my friends go
Tell me why they left me behind
They made it to the endzone
Still I’m sitting on the sideline
And all my ex’s hate me
And my girl won’t answer my calls
Everybody blames me
Even though it’s never my fault
I feel this time
That I’ll be just fine
Without them
And I think it’s time
That just move on
Without them
So, I’ll be somewhere
Over the rainbow
Searching for gold
For gold, for gold, for gold
For gold, for gold, for gold
And they say don’t go
Chasing those waterfalls
What do they know?
They don’t really know ‘bout me
Said, they don’t really know ‘bout me
Cus I can’t stand the raindrops
Tapping my rooftop
Breaking me down
Breaking me down, down, down
Breaking me down, down, down
Give me the sunshine
I need this one time
Break from the clouds
Yeah
Looking at my cellphone
Aint nobody texting
Man that shit’s depressing
But just what I expected
I wish I was patient
Good things come to those
Who give it some time
Even when it’s moving slow
Yeah
Stuck
Feeling so alone
Feeling like nobody has the
Number to my phone
Calling my bank to see
If I can get a loan
It’s hard to find a hobby
When you got no interest
So
I’m so fucking bored
Can’t take it no more
Let’s run away
And do something scary
So, I’ll be somewhere
Over the rainbow
Searching for gold
For gold, for gold, for gold
For gold, for gold, for gold
And they say don’t go
Chasing those waterfalls
What do they know?
They don’t really know ‘bout me
Said, they don’t really know ‘bout me
Cus I can’t stand the raindrops
Tapping my rooftop
Breaking me down
Breaking me down, down, down
Breaking me down, down, down
Give me the sunshine
I need this one time
Break from the clouds
