Ringing The Changes
Take an emotional walk through the memories of 2011: here is director Marc Biedel's very moving review of the year...Marc has found and edited amateur YouTube footage from around the world depicting a year of social unrest and direct action, both harrowing and inspiring. He's used one of the most popular tracks from our new album Miss You In The Days, Ringing The Changes - the only song that we've written that actually gives me goosebumps when we play it...
We're sure you'll agree, Marc's done an amazing editing and directing job, and we're proud he used our song.

On A Certain Night
On A Certain Night is the first single from The Miserable Rich’s forthcoming album Miss You In The Days.
Lyrically, On A Certain Night is a tale of possession – both sexual and supernatural. Apparently, singer James de Malplaquet’s first love told him how she was possessed by a spirit in the form of a light that would appear in her room, enter her body and tell her what to do...
Some years later while writing the album, de Malplaquet was struck by the sexual nature of possession, and how someone hearing moaning at night might come to very different conclusions about what it was in a haunted house as to in a hotel room.
He was also struck by the power and dominance of a spirit that cannot be kept in bounds by physical restraints. As James says ‘The problem with ghosts is, you can’t just lock them out’.
On A Certain Night reflects the more dynamic, edgier sound of the new album, bursting with hooks and bags of energy, with the band's trademark plaintive violin, cello and double bass joined by guitars, charango, and drums.
