Molly is a 27 year old singer songwriter from the small county of Leicestershire in England. Molly started writing songs at an early age when she realised that the poems she had written were in fact lyrics. Molly continued to study music through her childhood.

Her first big success was in 2008 when she collaborated with DJ Sash! to create the UK top 10 hit Raindrops. More recently Molly has won several awards such as the best Urban/Pop act at Live and Unsigned and ‘Best Song’ at the 2013 Best of British Unsigned Music Awards for Lost generation.

Molly was discovered via BBC Introducing, a platform which allows unsigned artist the opportunity to have their songs played on BBC radio.

Thanks to her involvement with Eurovision Molly is now signed with Warner Music UK and is expected to release an album later this year according to her social network sites.

Want to sing-a-long? Well you can! Please find below the lyrics to Children of the universe.

Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
I’ve been tired of this thinking (hey)
so I’ve drowned it out with drinking (oh)
Tastes like a bitter pill but I’ll just wash it down
With the taste of something sweet that some doctor gave me now
And this is a madness
I’m not giving in
We’re shining like diamonds
With fire in our bones
Standing beside you I’ve a feeling that I’ll never walk alone
We’re children of the universe, don’t you know
Dancing on the edge of time and it’s ours to own
Just children of the universe
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
You know what we want and we’ve gotta get it now
Something’s stirring in the silence (hey, hey)
And it reeks of passive violence (oh)
Hold on tight this opportunity we’ll take, put an end to all this suffering before it gets too late
Hopes on the horizon
I’m not giving in
We’re children of the universe don’t you know
Dancing on the edge of time and it’s ours to own
Just children of the universe
We’re shining like diamonds
With love in our hearts
They said it’s the end but I’ve a feeling
It might just be the start
As I am awakened with fire in my bones
Standing beside you I’ve a feeling that I’ll never walk alone
We’re children of the uni, children of the uni,
Children of the universe don’t you know
Yeah dancing on the edge of time and it’s ours to own
‘Cause we are children of the universe
Just children of the universe
Power to the people
