About Fast:
Singer-songwriter Dave Thomas Junior has a penchant for creating emotional yet comforting music that is part dreamy and gentle in its soft acoustic quality. On his song, “Fast,” he tackles the concept of a relationship quickly fading so unexpectedly. The dream-like & slow-paced composition works in contrast to the title to hone in on reflecting on the idea of loss. Dave says he was inspired by Ben Howard’s “The End Of The Affair” & the idea of “someone slipping away just like that.” He doubles on the vocals with beautiful rich harmonies in between luscious piano & string lines, at times even whispering - reminiscent of contemporaries such as Imaginary Future & The Paper Kites.

Lyrics:
This boy
Sitting in outer space
Got no time no place
Got nothing to say
This boy
Somehow not the same
Nothing seems to make
A change

The stars don’t make sense tonight

The spaces in between us
Like through a telescope
The further away you get
The faster that you go
Till all we have is distance
And memory and past
I never thought I’d lose you
So fast

This time
Is it so different?
Cause it’s beginning
To feel like it is
This time
Is there no going back?
Is that everything we had?

The stars don’t make sense tonight

The spaces in between us
Like through a telescope
The further away you get
The faster that you go
Till all we have is distance
And memory and past
I never thought I’d lose you
So fast

So fast

The further away you get
The faster that you go
Yeah
