Song of the Day: Wild and Broken (feat. RBBTS) – Seven Lions, Trivecta, Blanke

By 20-somethinglife | June 7, 2021

For the first time Seven Lions, Trivecta, and Blanke came together to collaborate on a track and the result is “Wild and Broken” a melodic dubstep track that has a borderline folk feel to it. Featuring vocals from RBBTS, “Wild and Broken” is more approachable and radio friendly than Seven Lions’ last release “Shadows”, with the exception of a signature breakdown section in the middle that will keep headbangers happy. Overall it’s a solid track that all three artists will surely include in their festival sets this summer. Check it out! Lyrics below.

Wild and Broken Lyrics

Into the night
Over the ocean
Scars turn to light
Into the open
We walked the line
I guess we were lost then
Before you and I found home

We are the wild, wild and the broken
It’s you and I and thousands more of them
We’re giants and mice, fire and ice, diamonds still crack sometimes
We are the wild, wild and the broken

We are the wild

We are the wild, wild and the broken
It’s you and I and thousands more of them
We’re giants and mice, fire and ice, diamonds still crack sometimes
We are the wild, wild and the broken

We are the wild

A new hope in sight
Behind the ocean
Sparks turned to light
Bodies in motion
We walked the line
Guess we were lost then
Before you and I found home

We’re giants and mice, fire and ice, diamonds still crack sometimes
We are the wild, wild and the broken

We are the wild

Song of the Day: Never Look Back – Oliver Heldens (ft. Syd Silvair)

By 20-somethinglife | May 29, 2021

Featuring sultry and seductive vocals from Syd Silvair, Oliver Heldens delivers an ear-worm of a house track in “Never Look Back”. Interestingly, this song was supposed to feature Britney Spears on it according to Oliver but they ended up going with the original singer/songwriter in Syd Silvair which is good to hear. Bump it and find the lyrics below.

Never Look Back Lyrics

Don’t lose your mind when you watch me walk away
Thunder and lightning, we’re gonna detonate
Don’t lose your mind when you watch me walk away
Thunder and lightning
And we never look back

Solid gold, saw you walking like that
Step too close, turn to liquid like that
Sleek and bold, can we keep it like that?
And we never look back

Song of the Day: Take Your Time – ARTY

By 20-somethinglife | May 28, 2021

“Take Your Time”, a single from ARTY released in January is an upbeat progressive house track with a positive message. Check out what ARTY himself had to say about it, then listen and check out the lyrics below.

“‘Take Your Time’ is a very personal song about the right and wrong times in your life. It doesn’t always go the way you expect or want, but you need to be patient about things coming the way you manifest them, because eventually, the time will be right. Although the song was written back in 2020 right before COVID started, I feel it hits the nail right on the head considering the times we live in now. I really hope that ‘Take Your Time’ will resonate with the listeners and make their day a little bit brighter because we need to believe that the good days will come.”

Take Your Time Lyrics

Saying all the right things in all the wrong moments
Feeling all the right things, but don’t know how to show it
The stars align
When it’s just right
So we can take the long road
Just don’t know where it’s going

And even if it’s not right now
Someday we’re gonna work this out
So take your time
I’ll wait it out

And even if we don’t know when
Someday we’ll make it work somehow
So take your time
I’ll wait it out
Wait it out
Wait it out

Walking on a tight rope
We keep losing our balance
Even with our eyes closed
We both know what’s gonna happen
There’ll be a sign
When it’s just right

And even if it’s not right now
Someday we’re gonna work this out
So take your time
I’ll wait it out, wait it out

And even if we don’t know when
Someday will make it work somehow
So take your time
I’ll wait it out
Wait it out
Wait it out

Wait it out
I’ll wait it out

So take your time
I’ll wait it out
Wait it out
Wait it out

Song of the Day: Assassin – Sultan & Shepard

By 20-somethinglife | May 27, 2021

The Canadian duo Sultan & Shepard released their LP Something, Everything in March 2021 and one of the most moving tracks off it comes in the form of “Assassin”. The LP as whole is slower than what you’d typically think of EDM featuring mostly instrumentals with a calming vibe that can be classified as a mix of melodic house and techno. “Something, Everything”, the track that shares the album’s namesake is another one to check out. Take a listen and check out the lyrics to “Assassin” below.

Assassin Lyrics

Less a lover, more a fighter
But I’m tired of fighting to hold on
Got too many scars to hide ’em
So it’s easier bein’ on my own

But you
Shoot first, draw blood, before I know
Yeah, you
One shot, one touch, and I let go

How did this happen?
My walls were up and
You moved without a sound
Never imagined
Like an assassin
Yeah, one look took me down

Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Yeah, one look took me down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Yeah, one look took me

Yeah, one look took me
Yeah, one look took me
