Close your eyes and picture me
Draw my face and make me breathe
I’ve got something that you know you need
I’ll lift you up I’ll put you on your knees
Play me in your head and run it back
As I whisper to you on the track
Turn me up until you hit the max
Slow it down, let your mind relax
I want to be your fantasy
Change the world with how and what you see
Our desire’s your identity
Locks you up but it could set you free
Fantasy becomes reality
Chase me up and down imagined lanes
Feel your mind and feel my body strain
Let me help you get to know your pain
I’m in your heart I’m racing through your veins
Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
