    Acclaim for the Album:

    4/5 bombs by Louder Than War. The album "carries “an illicit air opulence”. This is precisely the intelligent form of art-pop that we have been crying out for"

    Rolling Stone Australia "when much modern music can be a soporific affair, who doesn’t relish a bit of “sexy, confusing… fun” pop?”


    About the Album:

    Why Did I Choose This? is a collection of quirky and eclectic songs that take unexpected turns while managing to remain accessible and catchy. Marson’s talent for combining over-the-top, extravagant 80s sounds with his timeless crooning vocal creates a cognitive dissonance that will resonate with those who feel out of place in today's world.

lyrics

Love coma
I don't want to wake up
If you catch me dreaming
I am warning you to turn it off

Tried to play it cool
Can't get over you
Now everytime I close my eyes
I see you there
And there's nothing I can do

Love Coma
I don't want to wake up
If you catch me dreaming
I am warning you to turn it off

Oh Love Coma
Oh Love Coma

Tried to play it cool
Can't get over you
Now everytime I close my eyes
I see you there
And there's nothing I can do

Love Coma
I don't want to wake up
If you catch me dreaming
I am warning you to turn it off

Oh Love Coma
Oh Love Coma

At the station where we walked hand in hand
Too afraid to say how I really feel
And now I am lying in a hospital bed you made
A Love Coma
