Kitchen Party Lights

Kitchen Party – Lights. We’d not heard of Kitchen Party until a few months ago when they posted a mixtape called 11th Floor (http://tinyurl.com/mjo9wmo) which was, well, pretty damn great. So when they asked us to make a music video for their debut track “Lights” we happily obliged. For the shoot, Noisey exposed the huge underground car cruising scene that exists underneath your noses right here in the UK, in industrial estates and abandoned car parks around the country. We followed Hayley, a young girl racer from Essex, on a night out on the tarmac with her best mate, ending up at a 5,000 strong car cruising event at a secret location in East London. Imagine if Fast and Furious was directed by Guy Ritchie and Vin Diesel was a lad from Essex and you’ll have some idea of how ridiculous and great this scene is. The track is taken from their EP (set for release on 8th September) which is a collection of original tracks and remixes, co-written with Cameron McVey (Neneh Cherry, All Saints, Massive Attack, Sugababes).

Kitchen Party – Lights Lyrics:
Lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights
It’s cold outside and I get loud
Cannot be me
My longue can’t hold on breaking down Hollywood
I’m flying to, sailing through the same things
Same all feel tomorrow, ohh
In case I feel so aw…
Pre-Chorus:
So stop complaining ‘cause you know what it’s like
I’ll come make up your mind, I’ll come up make your mind
Feels like I’m fading but a fool doesn’t mind
I have come to the end of the fight.
Chorus:
These lights
Underneath the dark, you know it’s light
If you’re right
Feeling like you’ve got not think, it’s come undone
To find,
Underneath the dark you know just why
It’s the light.
You said you know, don’t wanna doubt
I’ve seen you work, your bloody hand showin no mind back in throat
It’s all the same, but you look the other way
We belong on the same floor, ohh
And for the price you’ve done ‘cause you owe me, owe me.
Pre-Chorus:
So stop complaining ‘cause you know what it’s like
I’ll come make up your mind, I’ll come up make your mind
Feels like I’m fading but a fool doesn’t mind
I have come to the end of the fight.
Chorus:
These lights
Underneath the dark you know it’s light
If you’re right
Feeling like you’ve got not think, it’s come undone
To find,
Underneath the dark you know just why
It’s the light.
Lights lights lights
Lights lights lights
Chorus:
These lights
Underneath the dark you know it’s light
If you’re right
Feeling like you’ve got not think, it’s come undone
To find,
Underneath the dark you know just why
It’s the light.
Chorus:
These lights
Underneath the dark you know it’s light
If you’re right
Feeling like you’ve got not think, it’s come undone
To find,
Underneath the dark you know just why
It’s the light.
