Vanbot released her selftitled album in 2011, followed by several singles in 2012 and 2013. The music received rave reviews, but after that she remained silent. “The plan was to release a new album the fall of 2013, but it was canceled at the last minute. The album was almost finalized when I got cold feet and trashed it. Something was missing and I didn’t want to let myself down so I choked and froze. I had to throw it all away and start again. Left with a blank page, the reboot challenged me to up my game and as a result my writing process changed. I played around with new layers of my voice, new beats, effects, synthesizers and felt more free and inspired than in a long while. It was the perfect storm.”
Vanbot – Seven
Vanbot – Seven Lyrics:
I’m reading your lips but don’t get it right
I don’t understand what happened tonight
You got to stop right now, don’t say too much
Boy what you just said, it’s more than enough
Seven days, was all it took to sort it out
Seven days, I never thought it’d a wield out
It would be better not to know, getting too emotional
It would be better not to know
Say a word, just let it go
Seven days, was all it took to sort it out
It would be better not to know
Don’t run away, don’t make a scene
If there is someone else, please do tell me
Seven days, was all it took to sort it out
Seven days, I never thought it’d a wield out
It would be better not to know, getting too emotional
It would be better not to know
Say a word, just let it go
Seven days, was all it took to sort it out
It would be better not to know
So tell me what you see when you look at me
And tell me what you feel about it
And tell me how you used to look at me
And then explain why the pieces don’t fit
And tell me that you don’t want to drama tears
And you don’t want to comfort me
I used to hold you high up in the clouds
But you just crashed down to the ground
It would be better not to know
I’m getting to emotional
It would be better not to know
Don’t say a word, just let it go.
