Is Filmore’s ‘Slower’ a Hit? Listen and Sound Off!
Filmore's "Slower" stands at the crossroads of traditional country music and contemporary pop-country in a way that is both unique and refreshing.
The new single finds Filmore eager to make the most of every moment he spends with his lady love, hoping that a beautiful night will not have to end.
"Let's make this night move a little bit slower, girl / And take another lap around this ole town / And let the radio take us where we wanna to go / Get a little closer on the side of the road somewhere where we know nobody's watching / Get this world revolving a little bit slower," he sings in the chorus.
The verse is framed around a banjo riff as its central theme, juxtaposed over a very modern beat of electronic hand claps and featuring a pop-friendly melody. That gives way to a flood of clustered harmony vocals in the chorus, with some well-placed electric guitar accents sweetening the radio-ready audio mix for a track that hooks the ear instantly and leaves the listener wanting to hear it again.
Did You Know? Filmore's last single, "You Know You Wanna," earned more than one million streams on Spotify.
Filmore's "Slower" Lyrics
I could pull in, kill the lights in your driveway / Walk up to your door and kiss you in the porch light like a gentlemen / Or we could chase a little magic before the sun comes up / Oh girl there ain't no reason we gotta rush / Let's make this night move a little bit
Chorus:
Slower, girl / And take another lap around this old town / And let the radio take us where we wanna to go / Get a little closer on the side of the road somewhere where we know nobody's watching / Get this world revolving a little bit slower
I wanna see you laugh like that in the moonlight / Let you call every shot in the dark like a gentlemen / I love it what you do to me / So let it linger on / Let your kiss fall a little bit
Repeat Chorus
A little bit longer / Laid back playing a song yeah / Making time freeze / Make it all last / Holding onto ever drop this moment's got
Repeat Chorus
