Theme & Lyrics

Louis The Child, Here for Now [📷: Interscope]“I think you should / Stay for a while ‘cause you’re drivin’ me wild / And I know for a fact there’s nobody, nobody like you.” Woo! If you need a vibe, look no further than Chicago electronic music duo 🎙 Louis The Child, comprised of 🎙 Robby Hauldren and 🎙 Freddy Kennett 💪.  In 2020, Hauldren and Kennett released their debut album, 💿 Here For Now. Filled with intriguing musical gems, one of the best is the bright and quick record, 🎵 “Nobody Like You”.

On “Nobody Like You,” Louis The Child enlists the services of Australian singer 🎙 Vera Blue. The duo gives Blue a terrific, picturesque backdrop, one that perfectly accommodates her voice.  Thematically, Blue focuses on matters of the heart – L-O-V-E.  Prior to the excerpted chorus lines, Vera expresses, “But I tell myself, stop, wait a minute / I always catch feelings too fast…” Woo! Notably, in the second verse, Blue asserts, “Lookin’ at you, I can’t help feelin’ butterflies / You’re like a work of art hangin’ up on a wire.”
