Freshly Squeezed Jukebox | Atom Smith & Miss Emmma - Playing with Fire (Audio) 2024 #electroswing @FreshlySqueezedJukebox | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 18 hours ago.
PLAYING WITH FIRE itself moves into unexplored territory with what could be described as a Western Swing Electro-Country outing, that would suit a Tarrantino movie while recent single 100% was a full-on Funk nugget complete with Vocoder vocals and blistering sax and trumpet solos. Album out now! idol-io.ffm.to/playingwithfire
Originally a performance and music collective who regularly performed Burning Man Festival, ATOM's sound has evolved from this rag-tag Mad Max aesthetic to a highly polished and driven electronic dance sound with vintage inspired elements and quirky lyrical inspirations. It's pretty much a genre all his own!
LYRICS:
Well, I don't know, but I've been told
The day you slow down is the day you get old
And I've been riding around that track
Never slow down and I never look back
Cuz way out west is where I want to be
The open road and the Joshua tree
I make my bed beneath the stars
Shoot out the lights in the local bars
Before I die, they say I'll break
But I try to give more than I take
I come and go like the rodeo
That's how it is when you ride with the show
Catch me if you can
Try to be my lover man
But you must understand
If loving me is your heart's desire
Oh, baby – you're playing with fire
Well, I don't know but I've been told
If you wanna get rich you gotta sell your soul
And I've been finding that that's a fact
When I eat the rich it's barely a snack
I spend my time down on their knees
And I spend their money whenever I please
You see a real man's waiting around the bend
Who could be my lover and could be my friend?
He'll live on my empire of dirt
A fence to build against the pain and hurt
He'll come and go like the rodeo
But we'll die for love by the end of the show
Catch me if you can
Try to be my lover man
But you must understand
If loving me is your heart's desire
Oh, baby
Catch me if you can
Try to be my lover man
But you must understand
If loving me is your heart's desire
Oh, baby – you're playing with fire
A life of love is not in vain
Can't get enough of the joy and pain
It comes and goes like the rodeos
And where we end up well nobody knows
Catch me if you can
Try to be my lover man
But you must understand
If loving me is your heart's desire
Oh, baby
Catch me if you can
But you must understand
You're playing with fire
