about

This is about joy and unconditional love. “Hey You” sings the unspeakable surprise you feel when you met your newborn child for the very first time. And when you look around again, everything seems new, everything has changed in a second. Hey You! Hey new Me!

“Hey You” is a bonus single for the album “The Hill” released in September. It was composed around a grand piano and recorded in live conditions at Geneva’s Epicentre. Elvett’s contemporary soul is lulled by samples, analog synthesizers and female vocals.

Accompanied by singer and jazz pianist Soraya Berent since their debut, Elvett surrounds themselves now with the talented singer and producer Gaspard Sommer alongside Chloe Baumgartner and Capucine Mugnier.

Like a Jewellery box for the powerful voice of Lyn m, this new group returns to their first love: Soul. Nevertheless their constant search for novelty is satisfied thanks to the luminous productions of Alain Frey.

Signed to Mouthwatering Records in 2019, the project now exceeds 3,000,000 streams on spotify.

lyrics

Hey you
Where have you been all this time
Hey you
I waited for my lifetime
Now that I got you, now that I hold you
I’m ready for hard times

How could I live before I met you
Life had no taste before I touched you
I learned what love is
When I put my eyes on you
Everything changed
With my arms around you

Universal laws are easy to solve
With your hand in my hand
All my fears have been dissolved
Like a stone turns to sand

(Hey you)
(Nice to meet you)
(Where have you been)
Where have you been
(All this time)
All this time
Hey
(Hey you)
(Nice to meet you)
(I waited for you)
(I waited for my lifetime)
I waited for my lifetime
Hey
Now that I got you, now that I hold you
Now I am ready for hard times

How could I live before I met you
Life had no taste before I touched you
I learned what love is
When I put my eyes on you
Everything changed
With my arms around you

Universal laws are easy to solve
With your hand in my hand
All my fears have been dissolved
Like a stone turns to sand
(Hey you)
(Nice to meet you)
(Where have you been)
Where have you been
(All this time)
All this time
Yeah
(Hey you)
(Nice to meet you)
(I waited for you)
Nice to meet you
(I waited for my lifetime)
I waited my lifetime
Oh
Now that I got you, now that I hold you
Now I am ready for hard times

Ouh
Hey hey
Oh
Mmmmh
Ouh ouh ouh

Hey you
Nice to meet you
Where have you been
Where have you been
All this time

Hey you
Nice to meet you
I waited for you my lifetime

Now that I got you, now that I hold you
Now I am ready for hard times
