Listen to Oli Hannaford’s two new tracks “Running Slow” & “Lust.”
Running Slow is about a moment after an argument, when time slows down to the point of clock-watching. It’s about the tension in the room, the toxic atmosphere that makes one of you want to go somewhere else (and maybe to someone else). I’m writing this song from the other side. I’m the one that doesn’t want to clock-watch, I don’t want to go anywhere else. BUT THEN the song has it’s climax, which is another major argument, and the last lyric is ‘be there now’, aka I just changed my tune and you can pi$$ off because I’m better and deserve better than this whole situation. Mic drop. – Oli Hannaford
Lust follows on from Berry Gin. Where Berry Gin was about letting loose on a night out and in a way disassociating yourself from reality, LUST is about when you get home… It’s about when you start to realize that whatever’s going on probably shouldn’t be because it definitely is reality. But when you’re doing something you probably shouldn’t be, it’s way more exciting isn’t it ? – Oli Hannaford
