about

I created this song from being inspired by Bossa Nova records like Getz/Gilberto and Garage Rock bands like the Strokes. In channelling two genres I adore, "Sittin' Pretty" was born. It was independently recorded in basements and bedroom studios as well, self-produced. The lyrics revolve around the feeling of great love, but not sure if it's meant to last. Planning to promote it with a pre-save campaign/merch giveaway, and an acoustic cover after the release so stay tuned :)

lyrics

Caught off guard
Heart stood still
But I know that we're fine
Caught on love
Caught on life
I love to see your smile

But I, I'm set on you
Am I supposed to be?
And you, you're set on me
Are you supposed to be?
I guess we'll wait and see

Hide and seek
Call my name
Cause I'm still losing sleep
Called my bluff
Got off hand
I hate to see you crying

Cause I'm, I'm set on you
But am I supposed to be?
Cause you, you're set on me
Are you supposed to be?
I guess we'll wait
Just wait and see

My head is spinning from the days we left behind
Come hop on board let's sail away
Second-hand smoke, empty bottles all you'll find
I swear I'll be home just any day
Cause when I see that, you're fine with that I know
We're not wasting our time
We're not wasting our time

Cause I'm, I'm set on you
But am I supposed to be?
And you, you're set on me
But are you supposed to be?
I guess we'll wait
I guess we'll wait
Just wait and see
