Follow The Satellite Station :
We no longer present The Satellite Station. Indeed, he returns every month with a new single, always better than the previous one. And of course, there's no surprise: "Need You Right Now" is also a real gem. After a lot of melancholy songs and a rather dark atmosphere, the artist tries his hand at a new genre. So, don't be surprised if this new single is a danceable banger. After a soft intro and a calm first verse, just accompanied by a piano, Travis lets go in a very catchy and powerful chorus. With a luminous production, the magic happens, once again, while the song talks about a pretty sad situation: we all have lost someone we love. But the track is like a cry for hope, where Travis dug deep inside himself... to create another masterpiece. "I still hear you whispering in my ear". Very emotional lyrics, imprisoned in a fireworks display of colors and emotions. And good news: this is The Satellite Station’s first release via alexrainbirdRecords, the wonderful label run by our English friends of alexrainbirdMusic. Also featured several times on their amazing and very influential YouTube channel, our favourite artist will now benefit from greater and well-deserved exposure.
Lyrics :
I was feeling lost at the edge of the world
Saw your lips were moving, but didn't hear a word
Then everything froze in time, No, the clock was just broken
Couldn't fall asleep so I just laid on the floor
Fighting off the thoughts that I can't think anymore
And everytime I close my eyes, I see you there...
Oh, I just want this all to end...
It's not like we didn't see this coming but
Now that it's here, it doesn't feel real
And I can see how fragile all this is
Will I still hear you whispering into my ear
Just like you were near, I want to feel you in the air
We all sat in silence as we rode in the car
Counted all the exits with my head on the door
We drove through the mountains, drove through the trees
People filed in and we all gathered around
Stood off in the distance with my head in the clouds
Why is it everytime I wear this suit, I feel like a child?
Oh, I just want this all to end...
It's not like we didn't see this coming but
Now that it's here, it doesn't feel real
And I can see how fragile all this is
Will I still hear you whispering into my ear
Just like you were near, I want to feel you in the air
I really need you right now
I really need you right now
I really need you right now
I really need you right now
It's not like we didn't see this coming but
Now that it's here, it doesn't feel real
And I can see how fragile all this is
Will I still hear you whispering into my ear
Just like you were near, I want to feel you in the air
The Satellite Station's point of view :
Like many of my songs...this is a story...This song is about losing someone close to you. The story is told from the perspective of the person left behind. It's about how when you lose someone...there are so many things to do that you don't have a chance to pause and really be alone with the emotion of it all. To really process. This song is about that...and what happens when you finally slow down enough that is starts to hit home. That is the bridge of the song. But also: what I love about music is everyone hears it differently.
