Looking For That Thrill In The Nothing

I love Fever, the latest single by Aldous Harding, itself a striking vocal departure from previous single, Lawn. 

The familiar chord sequences provide an immediate earworm and instinct to break into a jerky dance wherever you might happen to be (actually, the latter bit might just be me).

Fourth album, Warm Chris, is out on Friday and it promises to be a doozy.

Fever: Aldous Harding (2022)

Fever, when we met at hotel reception
Never have I been so tired
You said, "You bet"
Guess we did what the other expected

 

Eleven, eleven days in the heat of the city
Together, I had stars coming all around me
And you let, let me in where a mother invested

 

I still stare at you in the dark
Looking for that thrill in the nothing
All my favorite places are bars

 

Lover, don't you run at the easy part now
The weather opened up like a birthday card
And we forget one will fight if the other's connected

 

I still stare at you in the dark
Looking for that thrill in the nothing
All my favorite places are bars

 

Fever, when we met at hotel reception
Never have I been so tired
You said, "You bet"
Guess we did what the other expected

 

Eleven, eleven days in the heat of the city
Together, I had stars coming all around me
And you let, let me in where a mother invested

 

I still stare at you in the dark
Looking for that thrill in the nothing
You know my favorite place is the start
