They say to dance there must be two
must be me and must be you
me in black and you in red
and what you hear
the sound of your fear
well it's music to my ears
and in this moment you are not ready yet
So I call you up and I ask you a question
but you don't know how to answer
but that's ok because I'm standin here lookin at you
wonderin of a way to get through to you
And I wonder if three's a crowd or a party
There are two of me but there's one of you so let's start it
They say it takes two to tango
well it takes a lot to arrange all of these consequences
and all these dance partner changes
Lady in red
I pull us cheek to cheek
and my face matches your screams
and in this moment you have given everything to me
So I call you up and I ask you a question
but you don't know how to answer
but that's ok cause I'm standin here right behind you
cockin my head and raisin my hand
And I know now that three's a crowd, not a party
I prefer my own company so let's get things started
Layering guitars and saxes over synths and drum machines, this Oakland duo's darkwave is as melodically potent as it is texturally rich. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 1, 2024
