With no time to waste, the song begins with a nimble beat and a set of chords, with the overall vibe carrying and bringing you with it like a rapid current. Essentially, it talks about missing everything, and the fear of failing to give it all the time of day.
The guitar fills in between lines and verses are so energetic, and it feels as if the drum and your heart beat together in time. “I can see you everywhere in everything and all the time” is a perfect way to put that overflowing feeling in one saying. It’s as if it’s longing to go back to those memories.
Additionally, the words are actually reminiscing of something, not just one thing, but seemingly everything there is to miss in lost time. Heck, it feels like the song itself is fleeting, like you wouldn’t even realize it’s all over until you check.
Self Talk is a band people need to watch out for. Their melodies, as well as their comprehensible and relatable lyrics are remarkable, not to mention fresh. “Hypothetical Kids” is filled with hooks and catchy licks that’ll definitely get you. I’d recommend this song to anyone in an instant.
