L Y R I C S:
I say it almost all of time
You might be the prettiest girl alive
It’s not a bluff or a pick up line
It’s just what I believe, you’re one of a kind

How are the Hamptons, Gem?
Out with Loren
Pool kicking, yeah you’re gone for the weekend
I like you baby, you’re hot and maybe
I could go kick it with you?

I say it almost all of the time
You’re gonna miss me when I die
I joke and I try not to lie
I want to be the highlight of your life

How are the Hamptons, Gem?
Out with Loren
Pool kicking, yeah you’re gone for the weekend
I like you, baby. You’re hot and maybe
I could go kick it with you?

Kick with you, Queen of the East Coast
Had some boys in the pocket, you liked me most
You’re the shit, you’re a trophy
To brag and to boast
I got a fast car, your friend’s got boat

I came up with new bass line
I’ll show it to you when I come through tonight

How are the Hamptons, Gem?
Out with Loren
Pool kicking, yeah you’re gone for the weekend
I like you, baby. You’re hot and maybe
I could go kick it with you?

Kick with you, Queen of the East Coast
Had some boys in the pocket, you liked me most
You’re the shit, you’re a trophy
To brag and to boast
I got a fast car, your friend’s got boat

I got a fast car, your friend’s got a boat
I got a fast car, your friend’s got a boat

The Hamptons

I Love My Voice

Electric Heart • 1950s • Volume 2 swings straight out of a neon-lit diner and onto the dancefloor with another ten Hopefire anthems reimagined through the golden glow of the ‘50s.
Think: jukebox crackle, sugar-sweet harmonies, camp swagger, and a whole lot of “I don’t give a damn if it’s dramatic” energy.

Every track becomes its own mini musical — Elvis hips, satin-smooth crooning, drive-in heartbreak, and over-the-top joy baked into every beat.
You get the wild Hopefire reinterpretations of today’s favourites: heartbreak bops turned sock-hop shakers, emotional anthems flipped into strutting rock-and-roll, plus the now-iconic bilingual Easter-egg track You & Me (Korean / English) returning for its second decade cameo.

Volume 2 is the sound of a pastel-blue Cadillac racing down Route 66 with the windows down, singing loud, feeling everything, and never apologising for it.

Welcome to the Hopefire time machine.
Fasten your seatbelts — the ‘50s just got fabulous.

Her and the Sun

The two-piece indie-rock outfit Old Mervs, from Kojonup, WA return with their first new single of 2023, 'Sweetheart' and the first glimpse at the band's next era. Taking cues from blissed-out Californian faves Sunroom to the classic indie feels of fellow Aussies DMA's,
'Sweetheart' was born out of a writing trip the band took in Denmark, WA.
With no pressure or deadlines hanging over their heads, the band put their minds to sculpting their next batch of music. 'Sweetheart' emerged from a few different song ideas that would then be stitched together alongside producer Dave Parkin at Black Bird Studios to create the final cut. Lyrically, it takes aim at those friends that constantly flake on plans, while also acknowledging that we all do that sometimes.
Tight, propulsive, and ever so fun, 'Sweetheart' feels like a classic Mervs cut, but powered by a new focus and intention. The first of much more to come, 'Sweetheart' is another home run from one of the country's fastest rising bands.
"This track came from a writing session we did on the south coast of
WA last summer." says vocalist/guitarist David House. "We wanted some more fast-paced singalong styled songs for our live set, so whilst writing we were trying to imagine how it would sit in a live show. It definitely feels like a very classic old Mervs sounding track and that's intentional. Crunchy guitars and big choruses are too much fun to be missing from our catalogue."
