about

A more textured & atmospheric departure from Hillis’ usual pop, the driving 70’s inspired hooks of the song will easily get stuck in your head. There is even a nod to The Sweet’s “Love Is Like Oxygen” tucked in there.

The song is already getting rave reviews from the likes of famed producer/songwriter Don Dixon- “I LOVE this! You two sound terrific together & what a great song.”

The track was mixed and mastered by Hillis at his studio "The Hacienda", and co-produced with Hillis' longtime musical collaborator Greg Maragos who played bass & assorted keys/synth, handclaps & more.

It also features Freddie Rojo Berman on drums, and backing vocals by Kelley Ryan. Spooky whisper by Julie Baummer Maragos.

lyrics

Gonna turn it all down
So undetectable
Sweep it underground
Like a burial ritual
One heart one hand
One hip one collarbone
Head in the sand
Emotion overload

Good morning and good night
Is everybody crazy
I’m lonely on a lazy Sunday afternoon
The day is like an hour
My love is losing power
I don’t think i can take it goodnight

Sweet sun come down
Deep darkness cover me
So lost so found
Inside my misery

Good morning and good night
Is everybody sorry
We’re sleeping through a starry Sunday afternoon
The day is like an hour
I’m folding like a flower
I don’t think i can take it goodnight

Good morning and good night
Has everybody spoken
The silence is a broken Sunday afternoon
The day is like an hour
And time has left me sour
I don’t think i can take it goodnight
