This Alison didn't fall down anything; she jumped head first down the rabbit hole and landed straight on the decks. Armed with turntables, a killer vibe and an open mind, Alison turns countless dance floors across Australia into your favourite kind of Wonderland: more beats, less croquet.
Beginning with a background in indie and classical, Wonderland's best card is her eclecticism. Throughout her youth she toured Europe as a principal cellist for the Sydney Youth Orchestra and later played bass in a successful local indie band.
After inking a global deal with EMI, Wonderland released her debut compilation record - "Welcome To Wonderland" mid 2012, while her much anticipated first original's album is due out very soon! If the success of her remixes is anything to go by the record is set to be a game changer.
Wonderland has performed in LA at the official Grammy's Afterparty, all throughout Ibiza on top of MOS and the Brit Awards Afterparty in London. In Australia she has torn up main stages at Splendour in the Grass, Falls Festival, Southbound Festival, Stereosonic, Field Day, Parklife (nationally), Good Vibrations Festival, Harbourlife, Sydney Fashion Week, Future Music Festival, Coaster Festival, Secret Garden Festival and more, not to mention her sellout headline national tours.
The end of 2012 saw Wonderland taking the highly prestigious summer festival time slots. Playing main stage at Falls Festival in a headline slot after Hot Chip to a capacity crowd, Supporting PNAU Live at Wonderland Festival in Perth & again destroying the headline time slot after SBTRKT to a heaving tent at Southbound Festival this all within 1 WEEK!
Wonderland is the party, rumour has it she never sleeps and is reasonably good friends with Oprah.

All this time that I'm putting in (aah)
Build me up just to bring me down (ah-aah)
'Cause you don't want me to take the crown (aah)
I shouldn't let you get to me, but you do
I let you take it out on me, yes it's true
You're saying sorry constantly
Never say a prayer for me
Never celebrate your hands on me
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like
I don't know what I'm meant to do (ah-aah)
All I know's I believe in you (aah)
So praise me up for the things I've done (ah-aah)
I should feel like the only one (aah)
I shouldn't let you get to me, but you do
I let you take it out on me, yes it's true
You're saying sorry constantly
But you never, but you never (never)
Never say a prayer for me
Never celebrate your hands on me
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like
I shouldn't let you get to me, but you do
I let you take it out on me, yes it's true
You're saying sorry constantly
But you never, but you never
Never say a prayer for me
Never celebrate your hands on me
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like church (church)
You better treat me like
The lyrics to Alison Wonderland's song "Church" seem to be about a toxic relationship where one person builds the other up only to tear them down again, and where the person being torn down wants to be treated with more respect and reverence. The singer feels that they are constantly being put through emotional turmoil by this other person, with apologies that don't seem to mean much. Despite all of this, the singer continues to remain loyal to the other person, and hopes to be treated as if they are something sacred, like a church.
The repeated line "you better treat me like church" is particularly powerful, as it is a demand for respect and reverence that is typically reserved for religious or sacred objects. In this way, the singer is asking to be treated as something special and valuable, worth protecting and honoring. However, the line is also somewhat ironic, as it suggests that the other person is not treating the singer with the respect they deserve.
Overall, the song seems to be about the difficulties of being in a relationship with someone who is emotionally volatile and struggles to show the love and care that is needed to sustain a healthy partnership. Despite the pain and frustration of this kind of relationship, the singer continues to hope for something better and asks to be treated with more respect and reverence.
