It’s a lovely thing to see the a singer-songwriter you like return from the silence. Rosa Nutty is one such artist, the Dublin singer-songwriter has released her first song since 2017.
‘Wildcard’ marks the artist’s first single from an album called World Still Blue, out on October 20th, and it also marks personal change from Rosa who is now living in Cavan where she wrote the album. ‘Wildcard’ is a song about individuality and making that move to Cavan
The video was shot by Tim Shearwood in Cavan too. Watch it here:

Lyrics
Yes I’ll perk up
Tell me a joke
It takes two to drive this float
Re-pierce my nose
The needle is clean
But what side did I have the stud in?
You know whats-her-face?
She’s scared of space
You know whats-her-face?
She’s scared of space
We’re going out
Got my boots on
Everybody’s got me wrong
I need a drink
Start talking tough
The beer bottles are stacking up
Oh you
Oh you
Oh you
Oh!
You always were a wildcard
Wildcard
You always were a wildcard
Wildcard
You always were a wildcard
Wildcard
You always were a wildcard
Wildcard
