South London trio Beaty Heart have just released a new single called “Flora”. The track is a smooth and melodic indie-electro song. The band have said this about it “Flora was partly inspired by the Brazilian jazz singer, Flora Purim. We tried to evoke her rich, steamy tones within our own style, as well as exploring improvisational techniques to form the melody of the song. There’s a real analogue-y, stacatto energy to it that we all love, as well as just a dash of filthy bastard. We also incorporated a vocal sample from ‘Bad Bad Boys’, a 90s Swedish rap hit by Midi, Maxi & Efti, heard during a Robyn DJ in Stockholm which we thought was sassy.”
Lyrics:
You’re the only one I know, Flora Who can lift me up, that’s on for a while You’re the only one I know, Flora Who can shake me when I’m low, and say get up
So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora
I’m not the only one alone, no Trying to find a role, a heart But I’m the only one you know, Flora Who can shake you when you’re low And say get up Get up
So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora So I’ll only be here, Flora, Flora
