male vocals
disco
Vintage Italo disco drive: bright arpeggiated synth bass
gated snares
and shimmering pads. Male vocals upfront with airy doubles on the hook
echoing ad-libs
and a steady four-on-the-floor pulse. Verses stay tight and talky over a pulsing bassline; chorus opens wide with stacked harmonies
string synth leads
and a soaring
melodic top line. Small breakdown with filtered drums before the final hook.

[Verse 1]
Neon numbers on the dash
You tap the glass
Say we’re late like always
Laugh and pass
Your lipstick on my cigarette
Half a drag
Your fingers drum the dashboard
In that old red jacket
[Chorus]
Starlight in the rearview
Racing down an empty line
You lean in and say you feel it
Like it’s 1985
Starlight in the rearview
Every mile
Another try
If the night keeps playing our song
We can keep this dream alive
[Verse 2]
High beams cut across the signs
Blue and white
You roll the window halfway
Taste the night
You’re singing every little word
Slight off key
You say
“Promise you’ll remember
How you’re looking back at me”
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Both hands off the wheel for a moment
You’re tracing hearts on my right sleeve
Headlights flicker
We’re still rolling
You say
“Don’t you ever leave”
I don’t answer
Just go faster
Let the line between us blur
If tomorrow feels like distance
I’ll stay lost right here with her
[Chorus]
Neon numbers on the dash
You tap the glass
Say we’re late like always
Laugh and pass
Your lipstick on my cigarette
Half a drag
Your fingers drum the dashboard
In that old red jacket
[Chorus]
Starlight in the rearview
Racing down an empty line
You lean in and say you feel it
Like it’s 1985
Starlight in the rearview
Every mile
Another try
If the night keeps playing our song
We can keep this dream alive
[Verse 2]
High beams cut across the signs
Blue and white
You roll the window halfway
Taste the night
You’re singing every little word
Slight off key
You say
“Promise you’ll remember
How you’re looking back at me”
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Both hands off the wheel for a moment
You’re tracing hearts on my right sleeve
Headlights flicker
We’re still rolling
You say
“Don’t you ever leave”
I don’t answer
Just go faster
Let the line between us blur
If tomorrow feels like distance
I’ll stay lost right here with her
[Chorus]
