Badison – “Show You Things”
Düsseldorf producer Badison added a twinge of hopelessness to the single “Show You Things,” which she stated was “about wanting to fix someone,” until “you realize that there’s nothing you can do because it’s their life, not yours.” Source: SoundCloud / Badison Continue reading Badison – “Show You Things”
Peacock Affect – “Lullaby”
