The Heidi Incident are back with their sophomore release If Not Now, When, the second single from the upcoming debut album. The Reno, Nevada based American band consists of Singer/Songwriter Matt Vaughan and Producer/Guitarist Dan Hayes (AKA '2 Forty 1').
If Not Now, When is a pop/contemporary/synthwave song with vintage synth sounds driving the main instrumental complemented by clean guitar chord sub melodies that almost have an 80's vibe as well as an old school funk feel.
The Heidi Incident delves into a more emotional feel with the song's subject matter of not letting time pass and living with regret, no matter what part of life it can apply too. This one will pull some heart strings, even with an upbeat feel!

lyrics
[LYRICS]
We only get one life
So live it to the fullest now
Don’t go wasting time
Cuz moments slip away from us
This is our moment to shine
Drink in the limelight, take your bow
Things are gonna be fine
Just put your dreams in focus
And she said….
In a world of make or break
There’s no time for give and take
We won’t make the same mistakes
It’s not too late
If this is all that we have left
Let’s let go of all regret
And make it one we won’t forget
Let’s not tempt fate
Can’t let you walk away
We may not get another chance
You really never know when
Your heart will find it’s other half
That’s why we gotta try
Right up until our last dance
Don’t shy away from the fight
It’s tough sometimes, but ya know that
And she said…
In a world of make or break
There’s no time for give and take
We won’t make the same mistakes
It’s not too late
If this is all that we have left
Let’s let go of all regret
And make it one we won’t forget
Let’s not tempt fate
Fate…Don’t tempt fate
It’s not too late
Wait…Let’s not wait
Our love’s too great
And she said…
In a world of make or break
There’s no time for give and take
We won’t make the same mistakes
It’s not too late
If this is all that we have left
Let’s let go of all regret
And make it one we won’t forget
Let’s not tempt fate
In a world of make or break
There’s no time for give and take
We won’t make the same mistakes
It’s not too late
If this is all that we have left
Let’s let go of all regret
And make it one we won’t forget
Let’s not tempt fate
(Don’t you walk away)
In a world of make or break
(Don’t you walk away)
There’s no time for give and take
We won’t make the same mistakes
It’s not too late
(This is our chance)
If this is all that we have left
Let’s let go of all regret
And make it one we won’t forget
Let’s not tempt fate.
