All signs are suggesting that London resident Leo Kalyan, who dropped the enticingly smoky Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High For This back in November, will soon be a serious contender in the growing ocean of neo-soul enthusiasts alongside artists like SOHN and How to Dress Well. Backed by personal friend and exceptionally talented vocalist/remixer MNEK, Mr. Kalyan has developed a knack for constructing woozy r’n’b landscapes packed full of sex appeal, shown most recently in his aptly titled track Temptation.
This time the newcomer flexes his own vocal prominence amidst a glossy guitar backdrop, applying a series of echoing drums and sensual snaps that unfold to support the tale of late night encounters and you guessed it, lustful temptation. We soon become lost in a pseudo-Balaeric haze, where nothing is certain but everything feels right, akin to a humid night in the streets of a foreign city. Stream the track below and keep an eye on this guy, as there’s no doubt he’ll be back on the scene soon enough.
Leo Kalyan: Get Your Love
Leo Kalyan: Get Your Love Lyrics:
Summertime, heaven
Having too much fun
And we get drunk and
Jumping over fences
Into pools, we’re dipping
Glimmering like diamonds and jewels
Race, I’m winning
Riding through a tunnel
To the light, we’re gripping
Shining like the ocean
On a bright night, swimming
High on all the colors of you
And it’s never long ’til another dawn
Every moment is devine
When I hear you flow with the radio
Always wonder if you’re mine, mine
Anybody wanna tell me?
How to get your love, love, love
Anybody wanna tell me?
How to get your love, love, love
Late night living
Chasing after shadows
Like a kid, I’m wishing
Shining like a goddess
My religion’s missing
If I break in on my own
Would you say that I was wasted
If I put you on the throne, baby
Too much, too late, too sun
That’s what’s getting down the pavement
On a sunny day in June
Maybe, maybe, maybe, hey
Anybody wanna tell me?
How to get your love, love, love
Anybody wanna tell me?
How to get your love, love, love
And it’s never long ’til they play our song
Every moment is devine
When I hear you flow with the radio
Always wonder if you’re mine, mine
Anybody wanna tell me?
How to get your love, love, love
Anybody wanna tell me?
How to get your love, love, love
Get your love, get your love, get your love
Get your love, get your love, get your love
