I’m at the club and I’m falling asleep But my legs keep moving Can they tell what I’m trying to be Does everybody know what I’m doing? But I’ll get there approximately At a distant point in time But until the day that I do I guess I’ll keep on fucking trying To be human, to be human To be human and still be sexy When I’m crying, when I’m crying To be human and still be Sexy when I’m crying I try to cover up the sign of the beast When my heart is broken Got my thong riding out of my jeans But I ride with no-one You know I long for ultimate peace But I’ve got an eye for violence And so I wander through the streets And so I keep on fucking trying To be human, to be human To be human and still be sexy When I’m crying, when I’m crying To be human and still be Sexy when I’m crying

about

After two standalone singles in 2023, the alt pop earworms Good Girl and Bubblegum, June Jones announces her first longer release for Chapter Music in the form of six track EP Proximity.

June is a Sydney based singer, songwriter, producer, and shapeshifter, called “the face of new Australian alt pop” by Junkee. June’s 2023 singles announced a new “horny pop” direction after her run of deep and gorgeous albums, including 2022’s Pop Music For Normal Women.

Proximity sees June detouring again, heading in a more darkly glamorous direction than the confections of Bubblegum and Good Girl.

June says “Proximity feels like the most intentional collection of music that I've made. Each song channels an aspect of myself through a persona that I only semi-consciously developed for the record. This character, a woman not unlike myself, makes music about her connections with people – romance, love, heartbreak, desire, sex, and relationships. While the lyrics on Proximity are a combination of fact and fiction, the sentiments are genuine, as are the homages to some of my favourite pop songs and artists found throughout the record. Three decades after the release of Haddaway's debut single, I am still occupied with this question: What is love? Baby don't hurt me.”

The EP includes a feature on Dog by upcoming artist Perfectworld, the new solo project of Lucy Blomkamp, who June met in Sydney last year at an APRA Pride Songhubs workshop curated by Troye Sivan.
