ONE OF OURS

AI generated music. Not serious, only for fun. VESTAL FOX — ONE OF OURS “One of Ours” is about the strange, ordinary way friendship becomes belonging. There is rarely a moment when adults formally decide they are friends. Someone takes the spare chair. They learn where the glasses are kept. Their name starts appearing in the message thread. Plans get made with them already included. Then one day nobody can remember when they stopped being a guest. Built around a modern UK garage / 2-step groove, the track gives Betsy the lead: clipped, rhythmic RP delivery through the verses opening into a warm, soulful alto in the choruses. Organic drums sit inside Andi’s electronic architecture, while Brittany and Andi add restrained upper harmony around the final lifts. Betsy Langer — lead vocals, drums Andrea Santangelo — synths, programming and backing vocals Brittany Fox — backing vocals Lyrics by Betsy Langer Music by Andrea Santangelo and Betsy Langer Arranged and produced by Andrea Santangelo OFFICIAL LYRICS You took the spare chair at the table Stayed for one and it grew to three Next time no one had to ask you You just turned up naturally You learned which cupboard held the glasses I knew what you'd want to drink Someone asked if you were coming No one had to stop and think Funny how the little things Start to tell you where they stand No one ever says it out loud Still somehow they understand One of ours No one had to name it One of ours No line we had to cross You just kept turning up Till missing you felt wrong Somewhere in the ordinary You became one of ours Your coat found its hook by the doorway Someone saved your usual seat You knew who would turn up late Who took sugar, who took neat Soon your name was in the message Plans were made with you in mind No one stopped to call it friendship You were simply there each time Funny how the little things Start to fold you in somehow No one ever says it out loud Still they count on you by now One of ours No one had to name it One of ours No line we had to cross You just kept turning up Till missing you felt wrong Somewhere in the ordinary You became one of ours No vote taken No line drawn No grand moment Nothing sworn Spare chair House key Your name there Naturally No announcement No applause One day you look round — One of ours One of ours No one had to name it One of ours No line we had to cross You just kept turning up Till missing you felt wrong Somewhere in the ordinary You became one of ours One of ours No need to explain it One of ours No moment you could mark You were just there often Then somehow part of us And everyone could feel it You are one of us
