Riff: Calvin Harris ft. Hurts & Alesso – “Under Control”

Oct 23, 2013

When the daylight comes you feel so cold, you know/I’m too afraid of my heart to let you go

from Under Control lyrics by Calvin Harris ft. Hurts & Alesso

About as hopelessly unsubtle as you’d expect from two titans of the EDM scene, “Under Control” finds Hurts frontman Theo Hutchcraft vainly trying to inject some sense of drama into its generic declaration of love but is inevitably overpowered by Harris & Alesso’s brainless bombast; [LISTEN].
