The Hollywood Waltz won me over with their ’80s-inspired single “There For You” a couple of months ago. Proving that was no fluke, they’re bringing more great retro vibes with their latest track “Someone Better.” It’s an unashamed throwback, and I’m here for it.
“It’s centred around the old cliche of feeling lonely and longing to be with someone and going back to something or someone that you shouldn’t, just to fill the time and fill the emptiness,” explained the Hollywood Waltz’s lead singer, Matt Druery.
“Once you’re back with that person, you think it’s going to be perfect and exactly what you want & need, but in reality, you just remember why you left them in the first place… And thus the line – ‘if drinking is all we have in common, maybe we shouldn’t be together sitting at this bar’.”
