Tim: Another day, another awkward name but for entirely different reasons. BDK is Body, Drugs and Kicks, and that’s apparently what they’re doing this For. Anyway, we’ve met them before, though not explained the name, so there it is. And here’s the synthpop.
Tim: And this, I think, is a happy story of what happens when two people meet in a bar, as is the case with singer Adele (no) and producer Marcus.
Tom: Wait, what?
Tim: That is, apparently, what happened – met in a bar, got talking, decided to make music together. And what a lovely idea, much better than the typical “meet in a bar, hook up, try to forget about it the next morning” story. Which is very nice.
Tom: Well, that tells me more than I need to know about your time in bars. But yes – it’s quite the track, particularly that chorus.
Tim: The choruses here are frankly stunning. We complained last time that the song overran and that the verses were too long and disappointing to make up for the still very good chorus; here, it’s a sensible length, the verses are much improved (albeit still with room for more) and shorter and the chorus is that much better. All problems sorted, this track is superb.
