Tender Glue – Both (Time Machine)

A new version of an old one from the upcoming live album, set to be released on September 25th.

”Both” is a comforting reminder that even when we feel alone, we’re not. It’s about shared struggles, the storms we fight, and the tears we cry together. Through the refrain “Just lean on me,” I wanted to offer quiet strength, empathy, and the reassurance that we’re never truly alone in what we’re going through.

Lyrics:

When stars are falling

It’s nothing new

Just keep on going

I’ve got them too

Wicked miles

Sinking boats

We will fight them

Fight them both

Just lean on me

Just lean on

When doors are open

Not for you

You keep hoping

To get that tune

With the same story

Single notes

We will cry them

Cry them both

Just lean on me

Just lean on

New album “Smutne Usterki o Miłości” is out now

This album was a surprise for me. I never thought I could write in Polish, but after releasing “Rozumiem Wiem,” I gave myself a challenge: to write eight more songs and release a full Polish album, which I completed in just two weeks.

Every day before noon, I would go outside, close my eyes, and face the sun in a kind of meditation. Then I’d come back in and try to write. I read somewhere that sunlight like this can boost creativity and maybe it did.

This approach was new to me. I used to only write when inspiration struck out of nowhere, but this process taught me that you can actually invite the spark in. You can create space for it to show up.

“Smutne Usterki o Miłości” is that album. A collection of quiet, broken pieces about love and all the beautiful flaws that come with it.

Czuły Klej – Symuluj Jeszcze Raz

“Symuluj Jeszcze Raz” is my favorite song from the album, not just because it’s the only one that isn’t a silly love song, but because it holds a much deeper connection for me, both in how it was created and what it’s about. Originally, it was meant to be a completely different track for the Tender Glue project. One day, I started playing bass over it, even though the bass line wasn’t in the same key. That unexpected moment pushed me to rework everything, and over time, it turned into this haunting, atmospheric sound. I ended up freestyling the vocals in a single take. The lyrics were inspired by an experience I had after accidentally taking too much of an edible. It made me question reality in a very real way, like maybe this life is actually a simulation. But that’s a story for another time.

Czuły Klej – Hej Julia

“Hej Julia” was my attempt at writing a Polish version of my English song “Rudy.” I started with the same chord progression, and the lyrics and melodies just came to me quickly. At first, I was singing “Hej Julia” with the Polish pronunciation, but then I started debating with myself whether I should pronounce Julia the English way instead.

That made me think of the song Jenny by Edyta Bartosiewicz, where she sings the name with the English pronunciation. That became a kind of image to this song.

“Hej Julia” is a bittersweet reflection on a past relationship, offering a heartfelt goodbye and a wish for someone to find the carefree, colorful life they were searching for.
