The Next Movement - Understood (24.4.20)

The TNM Spaceship is - despite corona - still on target: The bands 4th single this year is coming on April 24th and the vibes are groovy smooth!
UNDERSTOOD combines Thundercat-ish funky basslines with tight Prince production. Edgy leadguitars take turns with stripped-down on point vocals. No fillers. Detailed percussion parts blend with fresh synth-chords. Hand-picked analog sources like the good old Fender Rhodes bring back the beautiful warmth we miss in the digital world.
The songs purpose is self-therapy. A conversation with oneself, where questions and doubts are answered by the own system for a better mental hygiene.
Soul? R’n’B? Neo-Crossover-Funk? Indie Electronic Soul-Funk?
What do I know. Best believe what drips lushly out of the speakers is hypnotic and soothing at once. Relax.

lyrics

Understood LYRICS

I can’t understand it
We’ve been doin’ this shit for so long
But got no clue what’s goin’ on
I can’t understand it
We got everything it takes
But still can’t take no break

Maybe I’m not here to understand
Maybe we’re just here to overstand
Maybe I’m not here to understand
Maybe I’m just here to entertain

I can’t understand it
Tell me why would you walk around around, close your eyes
and pretend that the Roman Empire never fell
I can’t understand it
Tell me why do I need to learn every lesson the hard way
When I could be chllin’ with my friends
You’re doin it for the love, yeah

Maybe I’m not here to understand
Maybe we’re just here to overstand
Maybe I’m not here to understand
Maybe I’m just here to entertain

Oh, Oh, Oh

You’re doin’ it for the love, yeah
Doin’ it for the love
Doin’ it for the love
(repeat)
You’re doin it for the love, yeah
