The debut single from Timothy Alice and The Dead Star Band - is a real wolf in sheep’s clothing –that hides cleverly behind the flow of easy listening.
Catchy chord arrangements, seamless vocals and percussion, manage to keep you on an upbeat plain – whilst the lyrics tell a very different story of dealing with your demons and only just hanging in there. You haven’t quite hit rock when you still have hope.
We’ve all been in a similar place – holdin out for something! Waiting for that the next big thing that could just be around the corner.
“I’ve been feeling tired
I’ve been feeling lost
Carrying the fire
Always has a cost
Keeping to the shadows
Down here with the ghosts
They’re wasting all my time
And they won’t leave me alone
But I’m holding out for something
Think I might get lucky today
Holding out for something
I can hear it coming and it’s heading my way”
