about

What do you get if you take classic song The House of the Rising Sun add a heavenly quartet of horns, some sexy bass, passionate vocals and a drum pattern that will take your breath away? The answer is simple... Angels.

"What you think is going to be a refreshing reimagining of The House of the Rising Sun suddenly transforms into a bombastic rock/rap epic before lurching into another dimension three bars later. The changes aren't jarring, they're liberating" - MTV Brand New 2012

Angels is the story of a couple that are in love but with the intimacy of that feeling being pushed to one side to have wild and passionate sex...

"Your breast, my chest, heavy breathing sequenced, YES"

With this being the third single off of The Covers EP the song has already been supported by BBC Introducing as well as getting The Stow placed in the MTV Top 20 unsigned acts of 2012, add a Mobo Unsung nomination in for good measure and you will see the Angels really are on their side!

lyrics

It’s that moment for me
When our body's should meet
And we’re seeing angels tonight
As if time was a myth
Total vision of heaven
Then we’ll be with angels tonight

Let's ascend straight to a world
Go forth soul intertwined
Joint sweat turns into wine
Six packs turn to twelve as we merge
Your breast my chest
Heavy breathing sequenced yes
Lord please let me love this women 'til the day I take my last damn breath
Hands running wild
Mind in the clouds
Time is a human concept
All senses forge into one
Our minds dance to the beat of our hearts

It’s that moment for me
When our body's should meet
And we’re seeing angels tonight
As if time was a myth
Total vision of heaven
Then we’ll be with angels tonight

For my last love I will cry tears so pure it will turn holy water into Evian
Take a sip at our holy union
The effect of a dead butterfly
Then imagine our thighs high fiving
Eyes closed
Whirlwind passion
From the same cloth we are fashioned
It’s a thing of fantasy
Thing of fiction
Didn't think this feeling exists
Transforming us into one
Prime time with my Megatron
No deception
Contraception gone a miss
Torn clothes
Lost breaths
Scratch marks all in the mix
Burst pipes
Pleasure's all mine
Bliss

It’s that moment for me
When our body's should meet
And we’re seeing angels tonight
As if time was a myth
Total vision of heaven
Then we’ll be with angels tonight

This is more than just love it’s a feeling unmeasured
It’s our moment in time we will share it together
Forever and ever we’ll cherish the memories
They’ll stand on their own
To retell it no words can describe where we’ve gone
This is a story for two and the angels of heaven

It’s that moment for me
When our body's should meet
And we’re seeing angels tonight
As if time was a myth
Total vision of heaven
Then we’ll be with angels tonight
