I had better things to do
Day I walked into the room
Saw you from a different view

Never could imagine how
A dirty hand could hold a crown
Secret in the spotlight now


Ruby on your face
Trying to escape
Wish it all away uh oh oh
No words we can exchange to make it right
No time we can erase...it’s a 

Sticky situation, uh huh sticky situation uh huh
Cotton candy, super glue, I stepped into a sticky 
Sticky situation


I had better things 
I had better things to do
Deep end, take a swim
Salt tears creeping in

Never cross the line
Hush or pay a fine
It’s a compromise
No words we can exchange to make it right
No time we can erase...it’s a 

Sticky situation, uh huh sticky situation uh huh
Cotton candy, super glue, I stepped into a sticky 
Sticky situation

I got better things, I got better things to do
Than deal with sticky situations

Sticky Situation

Feels Like Rain

The first thing that you hear is a soft count-up that gets cut off. Indicating that maybe the artist is alone in their room. A chorus-y acoustic guitar, one that feels nostalgic and provocative, fills the void. Followed by a bouncy riff played by a cheap-sounding electric piano. Suddenly, the lively, distorted vocals come in with the drums and bass guitar, painting an emotional picture that's equally captivating as it is longing. 

The story that we hear unfolding has the artist going back and forth, apologetically, trying to make amends for stagnation - where the other character must "feel stuck". When the chorus breaks through, we can feel the sobering darkness of the piano and reversed guitar. Almost as if the artist is trying to forcefully turn back the hands of time. When the second half of the chorus starts, we begin to see the full and vibrant colors of the song. The space is opened up for twinkly keys, soaring guitar riffs, and vocals swimming in delay and reverb. 

The second verse immediately feels more confident but also somehow more desperate, as the story continues. The emotions being portrayed are much more intense, "there I was on the floor of your dorm, hyperventilating". You feel as if the artist is trying to convince himself of something so strongly by quoting some overused motivational tropes, "in the end, everything will be alright just give it some time... BUT HOW MUCH TIME?" When the final chorus comes in, we're struck with a euphoric anthem that we want to sing over and over. Which we do, in fact, as the chorus repeats until it distorts into a fading silence. 

Although the song is just over three minutes, it presents many complex emotions and sonic changes, leaving the listener interested throughout its entirety. It's quite easy to play this song two or three times through without getting tired of it. A very solid 4.8 out of 5 for this phenomenal piece of art by Also Joe.

"Love" is a new single by NEEDSHES out February 14. Vertical Animated Lyrics Video: https://youtu.be/4ZpQqj8WO3I
It isn't another regular weepy song about the broken heart or noble emotions on Valentine's day. Rather, it's a saucy track about freak love relationships based on a crazy obsession, with the moody rock'n'roll guitar tune. It sounds simple upon first listen. While repeated listens reveal an abundance of sonic subtleties. The chiming of the multi-timbral instrument and the Persian tar’s tune are freakishly addictive.

LYRICS
Mama said it's never gonna work
Cause you're a crazy bitch
And I'm a jerk
This bloody smell
Is driving me crazy
And all I wanna do
Is making love with you

Cause you don't really want to
You don't really want to
You don't really wanna change
And I don't really want to
I don't really want to
I don't really wanna change

My little girl
You're making me shake
Your body, my soul
Your skin, my bones
Just let it go
We’re gonna be happy
And every single day
I wanna hear you saying

That you don't really want to
You don't really want to,
You don't really wanna change
And I don't really want to
I don't really want to
I don't really wanna change

Uh love, never say me “enough”
Uh love, girl you're making me tough
Uh love, never say me “enough”
Uh love, girl you're making me tough

Uh love, never say me “enough”
Uh love, girl you're making me tough
Uh love, never say me “enough”
Uh love, girl you're making me tough

Love
