Name: SOFTBOY by hailyourhighness
Duration: 3 min 39 s
Description: SOFTBOY is the final single in the Duality / Parallel trilogy. SOFTBOY solidifies HYH's presence as a dream rock due, dipping into the pop realm and continuing to push the limits sonically of a 2 piece band.

"Imagine The Cure" is a track 4 years in the making for Hail Your Highness and an end to an era. Recorded during the pandemic at HYH's home studio SHEFREAK Studio alongside longtime engineer and dear friend Brian "Bone" Thorburn at Threshold Studio Productions. This is HYH's first track in 3 years following SOFTBOY featuring a pop-driven melody in Drop B tuning. A song about never giving up, holding on to yourself and being your own cure. This was ironically named before the pandemic and took on a completely new meaning after the fact. 

Lyrics:
I owe a lot to myself
and nobody else.
What am I supposed to do when I know where I should be
but I'm not there?
I'm keeping it all for myself
and nobody else.
I found a stronger will to let go
than to hold on.

I gotta be there
I gotta be there somehow
I'm gonna be there
I'm gonna be there somehow

Can you imagine?
Can you imagine?
If I give it up now I can't get to you

You cure my pain
so I'm not afraid to suffer.
These feelings have always been
the same color for you.
August with a blue sky and an orange glow
favoring the white lines.
Baby it's all I feel for you.
It's all I know to do.

I'll never regret giving you my love.
Safe with me 
You can trust my thoughts
Don't cry, you have to keep going
Because when I look at you
I see time

Imagine The Cure

Recorded at Round Table Recording Company in Indianapolis IN in June of 2023 in one 5 hour session.

"The experience of Dandelion is a journey of multifaceted emotions and visualizations. The song provides the listener with the feeling of a cradling fluidity: being held between the airiness of the music and emotional darkness of the lyrics. Imagine yourself staring up at the clouds, floating in water, adrift, sun set and light fading. A complimentary yin and yang of melancholy and golden light, the listener is empathetically ready to undertake what lies ahead." - Jackson Patino / The Jam Flies

lyrics
In the back of my mind
You always come first
Laying by my side
Is where you are heard

I've got it all here
Waiting in a daydream for you to answer

Without you things just aren't beautiful

lyrics
Sometimes there's no leaving

Pushing our bodies to the limit
We dare to fight
And wonder why our hearts pulse at the sound
of currents inside
I'm not too far off to notice
How parallel we really are
You're my dream baby I know this
So just stay right where you are

You say that I should love myself
But I love you more
You say that I should love myself
But how can I without you

Take me closer
I wish my love could reach you
Take me closer
To where you are

I'm always speaking with the future
But I'm blinded by a hopeful ending
I want to be the one that no one else can be
So I'm leaving to be where you are
I saw stars in broad daylight (your daylight)
I'm sending you the sun while you give me the moon
We miss everything while we sleep (while we sleep)
I've got to have you
So just stay right where you are

SOFTBOY

Orbit PT. 1

2 sisters making indie music for people who like to dance, but also love riffs.

“On paper alone, Hail Your Highness sound poetic: two sisters from Michigan, who play dreamy emotional music that swirls together aspects of genres ranging from hard rock to shoegaze to trap. But it’s their music, with its unorthodox song structures, dreamy dual vocals, and lava-flow undercurrent of distortion and aggression, that completes the picture. As a whole, Hail Your Highness is bigger than its individual parts, a project with no easy genre designation or niche market that sounds like music you heard in a false memory." - KERRANG!
