paint it golden

I’ve been obsessed with this song for the past two weeks to be honest. I’ll Bite you By Lydia is off of their fourth album, Paint It Golden. The rhythm is amazing and the tune is so mellow that I forget that I’ve been listening to the song on repeat for the last hour. This song is amazing if you are high on drugs or low on life. All around great with very catchy lyrics, it also doesn’t hurt that they’re one of my favourite bands.

I’ll Bite You By Lydia is about having a good time and figuring out secrets that your loved one has been hiding. It’s also about falling in love with someone who has a beautiful voice.

My Favourite Part Is:

Well I guess I never planned it
Really never could stand it
But you’re looking quite nice
Wrapped up in that moonlight
So I’ll say that we disappeared
Yeah, somewhere near
And become whoever the hell we want to
No I’ll never judge you, fuck that

5/5-I think everyone should just go and buy this album on Itunes. Every song on this album is unbelievably addicting.

There is honestly nothing that I don’t like or love about this album. The only thing I hate is the fact that I didn’t buy this album when it was in my hands!

Leighton has one of those voices that just put you into a good mood without even trying. You just feel the need to sway back and forth along with his incredibly sexy voice. Craig Taylor did an amazing beat for all of the songs which keeps the momentum and melody of Leighton’s voice together and easy to listen to. Even though I love all of these songs, the ones I am currently listening to on reply is, I’ll Bite You, Seasons, Best Nights, and Ghosts. This album is truly just a fun one that shows the easy, laid back tunes Lydia is known for. These songs really are ‘Songs to move to”.
