about

Rock Me in The Ocean is a catchy, anthemic singalong about letting go of the past, accepting all parts of your emotional experience and finding power and freedom in so doing. For the outro I wanted to create something playful and celebratory and so I collaborated with vocal producer Matthew Ker, aka, MaJiKer (Producer for Camille) in his London studio and we had such fun improvising the vocal layers.

The journey of uncovering and healing my family legacy in Cork has left me so much stronger and more whole than I have ever felt in my life. It has liberated me, my family and many of community from the pain and shame of the past. By sharing my story I have helped many people heal and share theirs and I offer this song as inspiration to encourage and empower others. For it is in our greatest vulnerability that we can find our greatest strength.

lyrics

Rock me in the ocean
I am deep I am wild
Rock me in the ocean
I am free I am wild

Sail away, leave the woes of yesterday
Sail away, leave the woes of yesterday

Rock me in the ocean
I am deep I am wild
Rock me in the ocean
I am free I am wild

All of me loves all of you
All of me loves all of you
And all the things you are
And the crazy things you do

Rock me in the ocean
I am deep I am wild
Rock me in the ocean
I am free I am wild

Hold the shame
As you hold love, joy and pain
Be a force within and withal
You are whole holding it all

Rock me in the ocean
I am deep I am wild
Rock me in the ocean
I am free I am wild
