about

Modern Guilt's first single ‘Hoping For The Hoping’ is released digitally worldwide on Friday 25th September 2020.

Recorded with producer Mikey Buckley, ‘Hoping For The Hoping’ is a swaggering falsetto-infused guitar anthem that’s sure to be played on heavy rotation.

The track’s accompanying video was shot by Carl Fox and stars Blue Ekhaletruo in true Jagger-esque style.

lyrics

Hearts fall like rain
And The lonely sound like blame
The People grow tired of your game

Hear the words writ in fire
Hear the quiet down the wires
Watch the sun rise up a pyre

Babe, just wanna say
Gold fires have sparked in my clay
Babe, just wanna say
I'll never take your heart away

- chorus -

Push comes to shove
And hope stares down love
And you’re counting out your racing blood

Been so cold, felt so frozen
Many called, few chosen
Left behind I’m hoping for the hoping

Babe, just wanna say
Gold fires have sparked in my clay
Babe, just wanna say
I'll never take your heart away

- chorus -

Babe, just wanna say
Gold fires have sparked in my clay
Babe, just wanna say
Ill never take your heart away

- chorus -

Electric storms shout
Like your honey smiles out, in the open
I'm hoping for the, for the hoping
