about

Ivory Gates' DNA is very well represented in the track YESTERDAY’S NEWS, which brings a lot of the sound of its past, especially from the era of the second album, "Status Quo" from 2005.
This song has a typical progressive rhythmic form on the verse, with odd times signature, long-notes melody and going to a more fluid bridge, reaching a chorus with an initially intricate rhythm, but easy to assimilate.
Its lyrics talks about the promises of politicians during the election campaigns. Always the same. Repeated over and over to, once again, not be fulfilled. A cycle that never ends, and that makes the whole situation always seem like we're listening to "Yesterday’s News".

“this song features the solo that most differs from the others, made with “wha wha” effect, and taking advantage of all the sound nuances provided by the harmony, but still maintaining the balance that I sought throughout the record.”
(Matheus Armelin – Guitars)

lyrics

YESTERDAY’S NEWS

Now the time has come again, And here we are
Listening those same Empty promises
I’ve been down this road before, For so many times
The same stories with different rhymes
How could I ever dare to believe in you
only lies behind a mask of truth
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
Lights and shadows for a singer of songs
In a game of make belive The smile and the tear
The saviour that you need
Will only make you bleed, In the end
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
How could I ever dare to believe in you
only lies
Evil hides between the lines
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I fall, I will rise
Broken promisses
Yesterday’s News
