Lyrics:
They told you not to put
all your eggs in one basket
To have a plan b for safer landing
But the universe
Wants you to ask it
For that which you need
and it will answer
A little hope makes its nest
in the rafters
And sings a sweet song
when you are not strong
You must have integrity
as you go after
that which your heart seeks
until it's mastered
Because they are afraid
They will say things to scare you
Wish someone told me
It would be lonely
And you'll find
That the valleys prepare you
The hills are easy
But they don't dare you
To cut your path in the grass
find a new way
No map will serve you
So let your heart stray
Oh, if you get lost
it will soon be a new day
Just be persistent
and mean what you say
They told you not to put
all your eggs in one basket
to have a plan b for safer landing
But the universe wants you to ask it
for that which you need
and it will answer
Oh, you have to want it
and see it so clearly
that when your heart breaks
you have what it takes
to push through the pain
and keep on when you're weary
truth above all else
tell it sincerely

CRIMINALLY underrated. the lyrics to this are life changing.

[@ortegapanzer]

Best instagram ad I've ever gotten introduced me to this band and now I am absolutely obsessed. Absolutely love the style of these videos too!

Lyrics are deep and PERFECT. It's like a classic song you're hearing for the first time.

[@amandalincoln5232]

Exactly…I’ve just discovered this song today…but I feel like I’ve known it all my life!! 😮😮😮

[@natalieribbons]

Wow, sincerely appreciate that!

[@bwackbeedows3629]

​@@natalieribbons Sincerely though. It feels like a journey -- it's nice to have active, yet reflective songs like these. Thank you 🙏🏿

[@DizzyCrush]

well said!

[@SKTVisMUSIC]

deep spiritual truth

[@davidabercrombie631]

They have been putting out bangers for years now, glad they're finally getting a wider audience. They're so fucking talented. That bass line and her voice is fucking amazing.

[@natalieribbons]

It means so much when people stick with us through the years, thank you!

[@ontheroadsouth1]

Thank you so much!

[@y.b4727]

This sounds like a lullaby I'd sing to my future children

[@saml1939]

Popping off on TikTok rn - honestly, it’s about time. Long live queen Natalie Ribbons.

[@kingrhythmo9045]

I feel like this really helps me understand my rage with being someone who had to stray from their career path. I feel like I was thrust into the world after fighting throughout college without proper guidance. This song makes me feel like that confusion and nonsensical flailing to find success is normal, and I just have to pave my own path towards success and happiness. Not one that is predetermined or written out for me.

[@natalieribbons]

Correct! ✨✨✨✨

[@angeliclike3623]

I decided to go back to school yesterday at the age of 36 and heard this song for the first time. I'm going to listen to this anytime self doubt creeps in.

[@kingrhythmo9045]

@@angeliclike3623 Congrats! I hope you learn a lot and I wish you luck in all your future academic and career endeavors. You got this. 💪

[@SeanThomBeem-yo6nq]

This song is 100% about manifestation. Have a clear picture of what you want and speak it it into existence with intention. Persistence and clear intent (focus) is key to making anything happen.

[@discohospital]

This may be one of the greatest songs of this generation. Pure excellence

[@shawnleprechaun482]

I can't even begin to tell you how the song is mirroring my life right now. A lot of people won't have any idea what the lyrics really are referring to. They'll think it's just a fun bouncy song with a nice message. For those of you, who have had to cut that path through the grass as I have recently, you know what real words these are. Lonely? Oh my , but hell yes. But I know there have to be others in this brave new world by my side soon...cause it's what I asked the Universe for. And the Universe has not let me down once through all this.🌏💚🌎💚🌍

[@iknowbilly]

Just saw them play in Albuquerque last week. Her voice was spot-on perfect. We met the band after the show and they were the nicest people. Love this band.

[@asonofabitchface]

THANK YOU

[@ontheroadsouth1]

Thank you for posting these!

[@chompchomp8759]

This song is great. It highlights the struggles of modern living, career development, being stuck in an abusive situation, and losing your sense of self. All of this song is just advice and genuine experience with these kinds of situations.

[@theineffablejj]

I knew I felt something was missing from my playlist🥚✨️

[@natalieribbons]

We are so stoked when y’all add us to your playlists! Thank you!

[@theineffablejj]

@@natalieribbons ♥️!!

[@t.a.2886]

Love the positivity in those lyrics contrasted against the broody mood of the music. Perfect! Also, very Fellini-esque!

[@chrisa7134]

Yeah! That’s the perfect description. He always loved his clowns

[@ohjasonj]

Every video on this record is killing it. The style is perfection. Cannot wait to see Tele Novella live.

[@natalieribbons]

So happy that you’re enjoying them! It’s truly an honor to get to work with Vanessa Pla, the director.

[@ohjasonj]

@@natalieribbons Vanessa (IMHO) is the perfect director for you guys. The vibe of your earlier stuff seems like it's all led up to this perfect culmination of Tele Novella. There is nobody like you and I'm beyond excited to hear the rest of the album. I literally actually literally woke up this morning with the Broomhorse chorus in my head so I had to play it in the car taking the kids to school this morning. :)

[@raygower2527]

One of the best songs I've heard in years,, it has everything

[@Pashedkhonsu]

I heard like 8 bars in an instagram ad, fell in love and am googling tour dates XD

I’ve had this on repeat all day. 😍

Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@karshaforeverstudio]

Giving me strong Piero from The Adventures of Buratino vibes! Love it!

2:33 when your heart breaks, you have what it takes to push through the pain and keep on when you’re weary. truth above all else, tell it sincerely.

[@BrianHughWarner_]

This is so different. I’ve officially fallen in love with this label now, thank you Elliot, for inadvertently introducing me to so many unique and talented artists. Rest in power, Mr. Junk Bond Trader. 🙏🏻

[@natalieribbons]

Thank you so much! Yes, KRS has so many wonderful bands!

"The Hills are easy but they don't dare you..."

[@phillyphonka]

I am completely captivated by this song and music video. Can't get enough of it! I love her voice and how the song slowly builds. It's giving me intense feelings of anemoia.

[@AdmiralAlan]

I just discovered this band from this song on an Instragram ad, great find. I love the retro sound and the lyrics this song are powerful.

[@JoeSmith-bf5tp]

Cannot stop watching this video, that woman is so beautiful, the woman that is singing

[@poooopoo]

I just got randomly recommended this and im so glad i clicked!

[@natalieribbons]

We are too! Thanks for stopping by

[@davidabercrombie631]

This may sound weird but I started following Tele Novella like 4 years ago. And another video of theirs I saw for the first night I had a lucid dream i lived with them in Austin. Where i stay and it was such a cool fucking dream I'll never forget it.

[@natalieribbons]

That’s so sweet! Can’t believe we climbed into your dreamworld!

[@trashboat4731]

Wow this is amazing, im blown away by how good this sounds, gonna check more out

Glad you like 💖

Stoked you came to visit! That would sure be delightful

[@justtekina6709]

discover this by accident but i like it

[@natalieribbons]

👻

[@pemarabsel]

the singing

[@shaouy]

I just discovered this song, and this band, a couple of days ago, and I must say that in my 60+ years on this earth this is one of the most captivating melodies I've ever heard. I'm eager to dive into more of this band's catalog.

[@sergiosatelite467]

For once our generation gives us something to be legitimately proud of. Nostalgic but no longer derivative. Comes from pain. From ambiguity. From fear and anxiety. From an ever uncertain future. But - as it turns out - this too - if we are lucky - shall be turned to art. These and other exulted thoughts and a few tears he allowed himself to entertain after putting all his eggs in one basket.

[@courtneyharris316]

Such a song like this finds someone who is either a situation right then or prepares one for the exact moment. Thank u I heard this a month ago but i didnt listen now I'm actually in this predicament now. This song to me represents to take advice and listen to your gut feeling and dont put all your trust in anyome

[@yobculture]

I hope the rest of the new album is like this because this song is amazing. They lost me a little with their last album, but this is the creepy/haunting Tele Novella sound that I fell in love with their earlier work. ❤

[@natalieribbons]

Hahaha. I totally understand, whike Merlynn Belle is not as poppy as the first record, it was the record we always wanted to make but didn’t know how! But this new record has more flavors from before so I feel confident that we’ll win you back 😎

[@ChrsDxnWrks]

Another absolute BANGER y’all.

[@natalieribbons]

Thank you!

[@natalieribbons]

Stoked on these comparisons. Thank you so much!

[@arnoldvitm4882]

Heard that song for the first time on a college radio at 10pm. Love the retro vibe. Love the artistic choice for the video.

[@JohnPaul-Pokeshorts]

Im listening to a 50's and 60's playlist on spotify when randomly it played. I thought it was oldies. I get hooked.

[@Yanerd.]

Man, I love this song.

[@agentbabs_yt]

this was absolutely incredible and just what I needed in my life right now....

[@SashaL-wo5ne]

It's so lonely. I love you both so dearly, clearly.

[@ColinCollinwood]

Truly magical, with great lyrics and a melancholic 70's European spy/crime/romance film soundtrack feel and production. A world away from Agent Ribbons!

[@sarahvesa1655]

One of those songs that truly takes you away

[@redivivus8]

This song changed the course of my life. Thanks.

[@zeddblue]

Instant magic❤

This has such a nostalgic feel to it, great message, the instrumental and vocal work is amazing, very awesome

[@leeuhen5485]

you are very much yourselves, but this transported me to an alternate reality in which i first heard amanda palmer in a baroque funk band. excellent work!

[@phr3ndl33]

I've now watched this at least 20 times. It's an earworm and the visuals fit so well even though the video is simple. I love it.

I’m worried about how many times I’ve watched this

[@nickreklitis7998]

Same here, I got turned on to this yesterday. I’m at over 10 views of this vid

[@abbyw6642]

The face paint looks like the Pierrot boy in the Soviet film “the adventures of buratino” (1976) . Was this influenced by that in particular?

[@vanessapla207]

It was!!!!

[@meromorfu]

That would explain tune from "those were the days" if we use english.

[@natalieribbons]

EGGSACTLY

[@t.a.2886]

Yes! Noticed that part of the tune was similar.

[@Bunchesofrosescosplay]

Tele Novela will easily be the next biggest alternative/ indie pop artist. They will soon be right up there with Melanie Martinez and Lady Gaga. So unique. I love all of these music videos and the songs

[@haana_lee]

I needed this song so bad! Thank you

[@jonnykanesantos]

Great visuals, great song, genreless, ageless, just a really good song. Love it

[@JohnPaul-Pokeshorts]

Repeat it for 10x already

[@the-smiles-and-frowns]

that finely crafted vocal melody slithers up and down like a checkered snake over a symmetrically stacked pile of exotic clown shoes… and i rather love it…

[@natalieribbons]

Wish we had a checkered snake and clown shoes in the video now!

[@the-smiles-and-frowns]

@@natalieribbons ha, nah wouldn’t change a thing. Im just kind of a melodyphile… and good melodies (like this one) conjure up some pleasantly trippy images. Its movement and intervals make it quite catchy and lovable.
