The band is about to release their first single entitled 'Under The Lights'. The song was originally created when guitarist and producer Dan Hayes (A.K.A. '2Forty1') came up with the underlying bassline while trying to bring together all of the musical influences that the band is inspired by and ultimately create the band's 'sound'. After the groove was established, this blossomed many of the songs supporting elements and sounds. When singer Matt Vaughan first heard the demo, he was instantly inspired to write lyrics based on the first time he met the love of his life. 'I remember walking into this place and seeing her dancing on the floor and was almost smitten at first sight!' he recalled. The lyrics all fell into place almost instantly which completed and, ultimately, brought the song fully to life!
With a wide range of music influences from early Michael Jackson to Maroon 5.James Brown to The 1975.Prince to Bruno Mars.The sound is modern with a blend of late 70's-80's Pop & Syntwave.

lyrics
[LYRICS]
When I walk into the room, I can see you groove, girl you got what I need
Feel my heart beating fast, man I hope this lasts come on follow my lead
Take me higher than I’ve been before
This feeling’s got my in a tailspin
Can’t deny you girl I need you more
This is the moment
Under the lights
When you feel the rhythm, let’s hit the floor tonight’s the night
(Tonight’s the night, tonight’s the night)
Under the lights
When I pull you closer, look in my eyes you know it’s right
Under the lights
The way you make your body move got me fallin’ for you, puts me into a daze
I can’t resist all that you do, got you in full view, pull me in with your ways
Take me higher than I’ve been before
This feeling’s got my in a tailspin
Can’t deny you girl I need you more
This is the moment
Under the lights
When you feel the rhythm, let’s hit the floor tonight’s the night
(Tonight’s the night, tonight’s the night)
Under the lights
When I pull you closer, look in my eyes you know it’s right
Under the lights
Can’t let this be, let this be, just another night
I need you here girl under the lights
I could do this for a thousand years or more
As long as you’re…under the lights
Give me all you got girl, let me see just what you bring
(Under the lights)
Put it out there babe, go ‘head and shake that little thang
(Under the lights)
You know you’re sexy on that floor just tantalizing me
(Under the lights)
There’s nothin’ better than when I’m seeing you swing and sway
Give me all you got girl, let me see just what you bring
(Under the lights)
Put it out there babe, go ‘head and shake that little thang
(Under the lights)
You know you’re sexy on that floor just tantalizing me
(Under the lights)
There’s nothin’ better than when I’m seeing you swing and sway
Take me higher than I’ve been before
This feeling’s got my in a tailspin
Can’t deny you girl I need you more
This is the moment
Under the lights
When you feel the rhythm, let’s hit the floor tonight’s the night
(Tonight’s the night, tonight’s the night)
Under the lights
When I pull you closer, look in my eyes you know it’s right
Under the lights
(Tonight’s the night…) tonight’s the night
(Tonight’s the night…) tonight’s the night
I need you girl (Tonight’s the night…)
I Need the lights (Tonight’s the night…)
I need you girl, Under the lights… Under the lights.

This is a great compilation! However, what's with the hyper-politicized track 5 and its “extremist” lyrics??—totally out of place (hypocritical for a traditional Christmas context) and that'll be dropped from my playlist. exsurgo
