like all true sequels, it's not as good as the first one 🙂 tried something different for the talkbox signal but it didn't do what i wanted it to, hopefully it still sounds ok 🙂

lyrics:
took a little while to realise that you were playin' me, baby
when everything you told me was a lie but you were callin' me crazy
everything that you did made sense at the time
caught a slip, lost your grip, and i lost my mind

what do i do when everything falls apart?
how do i live when there's a hole in my heart?
take a breath, take a step, take a chance and throw it away
but who will i be when everything is okay?

all the little things that we shared were the reason i waited
and everything that you kept behind a smile was the reason we faded
and i know all i was i will be again
but i'm lost and that's the cost of being made to stay to the end

what do i do when everything falls apart?
how do i live when there's a hole in my heart?
take a breath, take a step, take a chance and throw it away
but who will i be when everything is okay?

i believe in a thing called love, when it feels so good and it hurts so much
i believe in a thing called love, when it's all you need and it's never enough
i believe in a thing called love, when it feels so good and it hurts so much
i believe in a thing called love, i believe in a thing called love

Oh hellllll yeah. Like a frog in the room watching love-making 😎 (but seriously, I really love this track. I'm such a sucker for a talkbox)

This ain't my usual style but you've provided a compelling argument to broaden my horizons.

dude, i am SO oiled up after hearing that straight funk

Sent this to my wife. No reason smile

That is a STANKY ass bass and I LOVE it!
Oh man, and there's vocals, too?? Daaaaamn, this is awesome!!!
Fantastic!!! I absolutely love this, amazing job heart

Favorite of the week I think.

OH IT'S SO STANKY GD

this rules

... oh man... SOOOOOO good... I 100% agree with the above assessment of the STANK level of that bass... it is 11/10 stanky. 

Also... there was a whole era of the 90's where every sequel (at least the part 2 sequels) that were objectively better than the original... see Terminator 2, or TMNT 2: Secret of The Ooze... just sayin. 

Schmoooooove!!!

Too good! Like what? This is going on repeat haha.

Stank face material! Super solid entry right there

Vibey!

Love the vocoder vocals.

Oh the talkbox is fantastic, wow

I don't even think I need to say this is great, because it just an objective truth. Great work!

Weekly Beats truly has it all. There's always chiptunes, you can always expect some 303 or amen breaks. Sometimes you'll hear experimental noise stuff. We have more and more singer-songwriters, even some punk and metal. Occasional jazz. Oh, I'd almost forget the sea of ambient.

But it's so rare to get stuff like this wonderful Stevie Wonder-style talk box funk. I commented on the first one to the same effect, and that one had a godlike Minimoog solo. It was top-notch stuff indeed. But the sequel is still a very good song! And the bass here is uniquely fantastic, too. And among all that cool swagger there's heartbreak in the story arc between the two parts going from hope of a new thing to feeling lost after it didn't work out. So I say it's a triumph!

Nitpick: let that reverb decay in peace!

Yeah, this one slaps. Funk. Feels. Everything the body craves.
