Years And Years – Desire. London trio Years & Years return to the top of their game with a brand new track that is seemingly born straight from the 90′s, with a modern dance and vocal edge that strikes as the boys boldest statement offering to date. Years & Years felt like they had been hovering above the flame of something big for..well…years and years, and it was ‘Take Shelter’ that really made an impact on the wider demographic and levitated them up a gear and into every tastemakers ‘One To Watch’ list for 2015. ‘Desire’ follows on from breakout track ‘Real’ and recent EP ‘Take Shelter’ as well as the top 10 feature with The Magician
on ‘The Sunlight’ which stormed the charts this week. After support slots with SOHN and MØ, the boys are set to embark on a hectic UK and European run of shows supporting Clean Bandit and Sam Smith as well as just recovering from a headline show at London’s Plan B in Brixton where no other than Ms Ellie Goulding was in the crowd displaying her support.
Years And Years – Desire
The rising stars and Gigwise favourites have been hotly-tipped for a while, after their run of awesome singles with ‘Real’ and ‘Take Shelter’. Now, ‘Desire’ sounds like it could well be their crowning moment – a storming rush of infectious electro brilliance and shameless pop abandon.
Years And Years – Desire Lyrics:
Oooh-oh-oh-oh. Oh-oh. Oooh-oh-oh-oh. Oh-oh.
I must be tough, I must behave, I must keep fighting
Don’t give it up, I want to keep us compromising
Open your arms and brain
To the truth that you’re denying
Give into the game, To the sense that you’ve been hiding
PRE-CHORUS:
Where are you taking me?
I can’t be blamed. I want you to want me again
CHORUS:
Is it desire
Or is it love that I’m feelin’ for you?
I want desire,
Because your love only gets me abused
Oooh-oh-oh-oh Ooooh
Give me that rush
I want to show you what you’ve been missing
Am I enough to keep your other lovers hatin’?
PRE-CHORUS:
Where are you taking me?
I can’t be blamed
I want you to want me again
CHORUS:
Is it desire
Or is it love that I’m feelin’ for you?
I want desire,
Because your love only gets me abused
CHORUS:
Is it desire
Or is it love that I’m feelin’ for you?
I want desire,
I wanna see what you’re willing to lose
Oooh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-Oooh-oh-oh-oh
You know that you’ve got me, you’ve locked me down
You tell me you want me, you need it now
You know that you’ve got me, you’ve locked me down
You tell me you want me now.
CHORUS:
Is it desire (is it desire?)
Or is it love that I’m feelin’ for you? (love, love, love)
I want desire, (I want desire)
Because your love only gets me abused
Oooh-oh-oh-oh. Oooh-oh-oh-oh
CHORUS:
Is it desire (is it desire?)
Or is it love that I’m feelin’ for you? (I’m feelin’ for you)
I want desire,
I wanna see what you’re willing to lose. (what you’re willing to lose)
Oooh-oh-oh-oh Oooh-oh-oh-oh. Oooh-oh-oh-oh Oooh-oh-oh-oh
