Song of the Day: Working on You
Today’s song is Working on You by Lyvi.
Indie pop.
This is one of those ‘long-standing’ Internet tracks that get lost in the shuffle of endless SoundCloud bands.
Regardless of the low popularity of this song, I’m drawn to the punch of the melody. The vocals are solid too.
You got a bad reputation.
People tell me your heart is cold as ice.
Yeah, the lyrics are dumb. Downright goofy even, but I still dig the pacing.
Gives of a pseudo-tropical feel for some reason.
The layered vocals work well, and when you focus on the backing you really see that it had some decent editing.
Sometimes all you need is a groovy baseline and a punchy hook.
