Unbuttoned – Listening To Me. Forming in 2010, Casey MQ, Jonathan Milner, Miles Gibbons, Alexei Orechin and Kamilah Apong ventured into the depths of Casey’s basement. They made their way back out by becoming Unbuttoned, creating music that was a fresh alternative – funky sounds of R&B and Pop, supported by undertones of hip hop and electronica. Their music has challenged the tunnel vision of genre labels and highlights the beauty of crossover music. Unbuttoned spends their time crafting their album Casey’s MQ self-made Level Me Studios. Their debut EP Electric Kingdom, released independently in North America and through P-Vine Records in Japan, received attention and guidance from both Kevin Killen (Grammy award winning engineer/producer) and the late John Carter (Capital Records). “Casey’s development as a unique songwriter has been evident to me for the last six years. With his latest collaboration – the beautifully crafted “Unbuttoned – Electric Kingdom” Casey delivers a seven song EP that is magical, innovative and belies his age as a songwriter. Ones to watch”, says Killen.
Unbuttoned’s movements have not gone unnoticed across the globe, receiving attention and airplay from various media outlets in Poland, Spain, and Germany, as well as CBC’s Jian Ghomeshi. Unbuttoned plans to expand even more so with their upcoming sophomore release, “planes”, available June 24th, 2014.
Unbuttoned – Listening To Me
Unbuttoned – Listening To Me Lyrics:
My love is in battle
Thought you were on my side
Thought you were an ally
But you took everything from my life
Got your knife aimed at my back
Never was the type to
Always wave the white flag
Never heard what I said
But now I..
Got you listening to Boys to Men
Got you listening to Radiohead
Got you listening to Bey in the evening
Got you listening to me
My dreams were your nightmares
Guns blazing in the middle of the night
You ran heavy with your armour
But that won’t save you from the words we said
Listening to love songs
But you got the words
Still you try to sing along
La di dee La dee da – still you try to sing along
Got you listening to Boys to Men
Got you listening to Radiohead
Got you listening to Bey in the evening
Got you listening to me
Can’t lose this battle now
Love is going down
Can’t love this battle now
Love is going
Can’t love this battle now
Soundtrack carries out
Can’t lose this battle now
Love is going down
Got you listening to Boys to Men
Got you listening to Radiohead
Got you listening to Bey in the evening
Got you listening to me.
