Riff: Shy Girls – “Second Heartbeat”

Oct 30, 2013

So much still the same and not enough time to waste on you/So many holes to fill, ways to kill, and not enough time to waste on you

from Second Heartbeat lyrics by Shy Girls

Dan Vidmar won’t “wait for you to change;” a unique message for crooning. His falsetto coos toe a very thin line between the cheesiest R&B and some solid post-dubstep. On first listen, it feels sexy sax-man silly. But with repeat plays, the rest of the groove grows on you; [LISTEN].
