Recently it has been drawn to our attention that a lot of people think 'Depeche Mode' produced the song 'I Promise You I Will'. This is incorrect and we would like to bring this to everyone's attention. The song is actually called 'The Promise' by 'When In Rome'.
'The Promise' was released in 1988 by British New Wave/Pop band 'When In Rome'. It is also featured closing the movie 'Napoleon Dynamite' where Napoleon and Deb play tetherball and the end credits start to roll.
July 4th 2013 (Manchester, United Kingdom) - Music producer, Jon Brooks, teams up with Clive Farrington (lead vocalist - 'When In Rome') to co-write and produce Clive's first solo album 'Independence'. The official release date is significant as 4th July also represents Clive Farrington's independent release outside of 'When in Rome'.

When in Rome had a No. 1 hit single in the USA called 'The Promise'. It was released in 1988. In 2004, 'The Promise' was used as the end title theme for the successful movie, 'Napoleon Dynamite'. Due to unfortunate legal issues over the name 'When In Rome', Clive decided to go ahead with a solo album...
The new album exhibits a fusion of styles; blending classical orchestral elements with a modern day electronic sound... as an addition to this, 'Independence' also boasts a hint of the 80's too! It's already receiving extensive radio play and TMR Records have just negotiated and licensed two of the tracks to GAP (Mexico) for use on their latest compilation CD. Some of the album's tracks could be classed as a cross between the 'Pet Shop Boys', David Guetta, Scott Walker and Robert Miles. The songs are honest, suitably original and highly emotive.
The new album 'INDEPENDENCE' is released on TMR (Tough Monkey Records) through Kobalt Label Services / AWAL on July 4th 2013.

--------------- LYRICS --------------- NARRATIVE 1: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd) "It is being reported that over 40% of new internet profiles are actually fake. Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?" VERSE 1: It's time to dance Like no one's watching Trust yourself And no cross talking Believe in love No bad religion Fool no one Your dreams fulfilling CHORUS: Out of all the places we could be We lose ourselves so easily Do not mistake identity INVISIBLE There are times when fortunes favour me And times that I no longer see But all the way, I find the game INCREDIBLE NARRATIVE 2: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide) "Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught... They believe they are so called -- INVISIBLE -- They're about to find out they aren't INVISIBLE, any longer... I - I - I — I — I - I - INVISIBLE I - I — I - I - I - INVISIBLE INVISIBLE" VERSE 2: Take yourself To the top of the mountain Breathe the air Like no one's counting Now it's time to rise Above the bar now You will reach The furthest star now CHORUS: Out of all the places we could be We lose ourselves so easily Do not mistake identity INVISIBLE There are times when fortunes favour me And times that I no longer see But all the way, I find the game INCREDIBLE NARRATIVE 3: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd) "Only 1 in 10 victims will inform a parent or trusted adult of cyber bullying abuse... Cyber bullying abuse is the use of the internet and related technologies to harm other people in a deliberate, repeated and hostile manner... Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?" NARRATIVE 4: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide) "Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught..." CHORUS: Out of all the places we could be We lose ourselves so easily Do not mistake identity INVISIBLE There are times when fortunes favour me And times that I no longer see But all the way, I find the game INCREDIBLE How lonely must your cold life be If all the world but you can see The dull cast shadow that you leave INVISIBLE ----------------------------------------------------------
