Holy Moly and The Crackers’ lead vocalist Ruth Lyon unleashes her upbeat, alt-pop new single, ‘Fast Food’.
Before I’d read a single word from the track’s accompanying press release, I found myself drawn into the song’s lyrics as they sounded all too familiar and truly resonated with me.
The realism of lines such as: “It’s been one long year, what have I done, I’ve been bingeing on TV like a son of a gun,” being of note.
Of course, the circumstances and experiences which Ruth is referring to is life during the lockdown. But add an infectious pop melody and a colourful, light-hearted music video and Ruth Lyon has hit the nail on the head of what life has been like during 2020/21.
Not only is ‘Fast Food’ an earworm, but perhaps the single will become an anthem for the pandemic times.
You can listen to ‘Fast Food’ now on all major streaming platforms.
