2) On their previous tour, Disclosure arrived in Newport News, VA, 4 1/2 hours from home to learn that their show had been cancelled. Here, most bands would have called it a day, but instead they frantically called friends to search for shows via MySpace. They ended up playing for free and headlining a show in Richmond, VA. This is just one of many stories that showcase Disclosure’s dedication.
In the past 3 years they have released 3 albums, have been part of an East Coast distributed compilation, performed in 7 states, went on 2 self-booked tours, and played over 50 shows. They have an upcoming full East Coast tour scheduled for July/August 2010 and they have no plans of slowing down.
3) Side project of Crunch Pod artist C/A/T. With the Disclosure project, Ben Arp of C/A/T shifts the focus towards tense samples and hard rhythmic sequences. While C/A/T has had a more abstract sound, Disclosure presents a more sonically straight-forward approach to songwriting. “Full Disclosure” attempts to further lift the veil and reveal the hidden hand that orchestrates world events. Extremely limited run of 25 copies and available only at Crunch Pod and was only available at live C/A/T performances in Summer 2005.
CD-R version is out of print. This album was recently re-issued as a digital download direct from Crunch Pod.
4) An Alternative/Powerpop/Rock band from Faringdon, UK. Formed 5 years ago Disclosure have earnt their reputation as one of the most exciting bands to emerge from the Swindon area through relentless gigging, energetic shows and great sounds. Performing on stage with the likes of Young Guns and The Rileys, Disclosure have played at many of the biggest and most respected venues and festivals in and around Oxfordshire. Now signed with New Vision Records and having recently released their latest EP at the o2 academy2 Islington, Disclosure have never sounded so focussed and relevant and this year will be hitting venues around the UK.

Defeated No More
Disclosure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just feel I let you go
Been cheated, I've been fooled
But you're my heart and glow gone
Gotta let this fire keep burning
'Cause I can't seem to let this show
Instead of running I keep it slow
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Defeated no more
I still watched you take it all
I'm healed and I'm reborn
But my heart's taking off the cold
Gotta let this fire keep burning
'Cause I can't seem to let this show
Instead of running I keep it slow
'Cause I won't let this take control
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you feel it working, but can you
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you think you're hurting but can you love
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you feel it working, but can you
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you think
Can you love
Can you love
Can you love
Can you love
Defeated no more
I feel your shadow disappear
I've faded and I fought
But now I know I make the rules
Gotta let this fire keep burning
'Cause I can't seem to let this show
Instead of running I keep it slow
'Cause I won't let this take control
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
Got to get it, got got to get it
Got to get it, got got to get it on
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you feel it working, but can you
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you think you're hurting but can you love
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you feel it working, but can you
I can feel it working from the last you know
I know you feel it
Can you love
Can you love
Can you love
Can you love
Can you love
Can you love
Can you love
The lyrics of "Defeated No More" by Disclosure speaks to the end of a difficult relationship where the singer has been betrayed and hurt, but is taking control of their life and emotions. They have been defeated in the past but are no longer allowing themselves to be. The song represents the singer's empowerment and the realization that they deserve better. The opening lines "Defeated no more, I just feel I let you go, been cheated, I've been fooled, but you're my heart and glow gone" reflect the singer's hurt and loss, but they are determined to move on and not let their past experiences control their future.
The chorus, "Gotta let this fire keep burning 'cause I can't seem to let this show, instead of running I keep it slow 'cause I won't let this take control" explores the singer's struggle to keep moving forward despite the pain they've experienced. They are determined not to succumb to their emotions and to keep the fire within them burning strong. This is echoed in the repeated refrain "Got to get it, got got to get it on" that highlights the singer's determination to keep pushing forward.
The middle section of the song has a repeated chorus of "I can feel it working from the last you know, I know you feel it working but can you love" the narration is addressing their former partner, acknowledging that while time has passed and they are moving on, they are both still changed by what has transpired between them. They are asking if their former partner can truly move on and love again after what has happened.
Overall, the song is a celebration of resilience, strength, and a determination to not let the past define the future.

Defeated no more
I am no longer defeated
I just feel I let you go
I feel like I let you go
Been cheated, I've been fooled
I have been deceived and tricked
But you're my heart and glow gone
But the light and happiness you brought me has vanished
Gotta let this fire keep burning
I must keep this passion alive
'Cause I can't seem to let this show
Because I can't help but feel this way
Instead of running I keep it slow
I am not running away, I am taking my time
'Cause I won't let this take control
I refuse to let this control me
Got to get it, got got to get it
I must obtain it no matter what
Got to get it, got got to get it on
I must obtain it no matter what, starting now
I still watched you take it all
I still saw you take everything
I'm healed and I'm reborn
I am now healed and starting anew
But my heart's taking off the cold
But my heart is warming up
I can feel it working from the last you know
I can feel it working from the last time you know
I know you feel it working, but can you
I know you feel it working, but can you feel love?
I know you think you're hurting but can you love
I know you think you are in pain, but can you still feel love?
I feel your shadow disappear
I feel your presence fade away
I've faded and I fought
I have fought despite my weakness
But now I know I make the rules
But now I am in control
I know you feel it
I know you feel it too
Can you love
Are you capable of loving?
