The lushest vocal arrangements of the year goes to Inspired & the Sleep “Liaison”. The beat is chill like hip-hop and the vocalists performance is a light indie track that is romantic af. The best part of this track in my opinion are the “oohs” during the choruses. Lyrically the song is sometimes tough to distinguish but I can pull out lines like “wedding, career, graduation” which makes me think the song is about going against the normal boring life others choose to live because he’s “not the kind to settle”.
“Liaison” is infectious and lovely and you’ll be dancing around your living space to this track in a state of pure bliss, check it out below!
here are the lyrics in case you were intrigued to hear what the vocalist was crooning oh so sweetly…
Looks like the party’s left
But your not your not letting up
You strive to fill the measurements of this cup
You’ve never been the fool
Who lets life happen to you
But these days are on the fence
Can’t get yourself to choose
Wedding, career, graduation
Your making us so proud of the adult that you’ve become
But I’ll just stay
Forever in the Middle
And always just enough
I’m not the kind to settle
But it all just stays the same
With all Lia With all Liaison
With all Lia With all Liaison
I can’t be everywhere
And my mind’s definitely not here
But I’ll try and make some sense of each and every fear
As If I lost the key
To this younger part of me
That’d strive through thick and thin
Would not accept defeat
Wedding, career, graduation
Your making us so proud of the adult that you’ve become
But I’ll just stay
Forever in the Middle
And always just enough
I’m not the kind to settle
But it all just stays the same
With all Lia With all Liasion
With all Lia With all Liasion
