Taking a thoughtful and reflective journey through loss and longing, Second Guess has created a down tempo yet dynamic R&B track. Sonically fitting more into the après-club, chill out vibe rather than the energetic dance floor groove, but lyrically it is addictive in its universal message of how hard it is to fill that ex-lover shaped hole in the heart.
Built of hypnotic beats and shimmering guitar chords it is the lyrical message and the rich vocal textures that define the song more than anything else. It shows that often all you need to do is to frame an idea with the bare minimum of musical trappings and understated instrumentation for it to fly most successfully. It also proves that often the most heartfelt and honest ideas deliver the most soulful and relatable results.
