about

On one morning during the Los Angeles sessions that became iogi and Rejoicer’s collaborative EP Too Much Too Soon, the friends took a juice break after knocking out a dreamy, wobbly beat. It was summer in California; time for something sweet. In front of them at the juice stand: legendary actress Andi MacDowell. They returned to the studio, delighted and smiling at the fantasy of it all, and “A Thing Like You” took shape. The first single from Too Much Too Soon, “A Thing Like You” is about those moments when life is so unreal, you think you might be dreaming. The song’s muted bass, neon keys and liquid synths add to the playful, celestial vibe. Are we standing in line for a carrot juice in LA, or are we floating in space? Through the song’s four minutes, the answer is an obvious and grinning ‘both.’

lyrics

never have i seen a thing like you
standing there and buying all that juice
paying with your last remaining cash
drinking it and throwing in the trash

illusion's bitter sweet
accidentally fell asleep
you were walking down the street
i came all the way to meet

never have i seen a thing like you
standing there and buying all that juice
paying with your last remaining cash
drinking it and throwing in the trash

i think we both agree
i saw you on tv
now you stand right next to me
will you take good care of me?

never have i seen a thing like you
standing there and buying all that juice
paying with your last remaining cash
drinking it and throwing in the trash
unknown supermodel, i'm awake
and i'm super ready for the cake
pack up all your things, we're leaving soon
you and me on the hot air balloon
