Josef Salvat – Open Season

No one out there has a voice like Josef Salvat. Seriously. I should be doing five other things right now but then I saw Josef went and released his new song over at The Fader and per usual, I drop everything in the name of MJF but mostly in the name of damn good music. The Sydney-born, London-based singer returns with his follow up single “Open Season.” Induced with body-riddling percussion and tempestuous synths that tornado across a massive expanse of pristine pop, “Open Season” rips the new age of music wide open with its crunching beat and earworm chorus achieving the perfect balance between heart-beating soul and ear-melting addiction. It’s like Fyfe on a bigger, faster rollercoaster of sweeping pop. “We’re in this game together” Josef croons. It’s an appropriate sentiment for the guy whose highly-anticipated debut EP out Monday on Columbia will naturally warrant reaction, but one listen to “Open Season” will have you believing in Josef too.

Josef Salvat – Open Season

Josef Salvat is a hot tip for a reason. There’s no doubt this boy is talented – Every Night made us certain of that – and now Open Season from the upcoming In Your Prime EP shows us his breezier pop side.

Josef Salvat – Open Season Lyrics:
We used to have it all planed,
We thought we knew what all looked like
We were looking out on the greatest view
We were raised to take the stand,
We were raised to keep an open mind
We believed that we’ll just sail out through
Down my hundred miles an hour,
Sitting in my palace without any power
Alone in the dark,
We are alone in the dark!
Thought we could always try a bit harder
But if the dice don’t wanna roll in your favor
It falls apart, the FANTASY falls apart!

This is OPEN SEASON,
Time is up, time to we leaving
It all goes down to this very ?? treavy road
Armor up, and say a prayer from ??
I heard you better off on your own
But I ain’t gonna face this bump alone
So I believe in YOU
And I know you believe in me too
We’re in this going together
We’re in this going together
And I believe in YOU
And I know you believe in me too,
We’re in this going together
We’re in this going together

Are we voices that were forgotten,
All the tracks we’re giving up?
I’ma show you for a moment, no it was nowhere near enough
But I take it comes, I take it as I only can
I take it on, and run where it goes!

‘Cause this is OPEN SEASON,
Time is up, time to we leaving
It all goes down to this very ?? treavy road
Armor up, and say a prayer from ??
I heard you better off on your own
But I ain’t gonna face this bump alone
So I believe in YOU
And I know you believe in me too
We’re in this going together
We’re in this going together
And I believe in YOU
And I know you believe in me too,
We’re in this going together
We’re in this going together

So I believe in YOU!

So I believe in YOU
And I know you believe in me too
We’re in this going together
We’re in this going together!
And I believe in YOU
And I know you believe in me too,
We’re in this going together
We’re in this going together!
