Nico X - Repeat (80s retrowave funk) My new single

[Queen Gloria 3,353]

I'm not sure if this is the right area to post this, but I've been wanting to break into the music industry. I'm obviously inspired by Gaga, as well as 80s funk artists like Michael Jackson, Prince, Teena Marie and Whitney Houston. Please check out 'Repeat' and let me know what you think. Love you guys - Nico X

We never even got to the dating stage
But you kept me in your pocket, like a sidepiece tucked away 
I’m not gonna wait for you to find your inner light
I’m not gonna lose sleep while you’re cruising through the blue night 
I’m gonna live in that pastel world, without you there, you can call up your favorite girl
I’m on that lonely path it’s calling me again, I’ll follow the moon and stars to my next step

It’s time, It’s time to let you slip away
On my own again, I am my own best friend
Your touch ain’t good enough for me
Your kiss ain’t good enough for me
Your love ain’t good enough for me
You got your record on repeat, you got your record on repeat
You got your record on repeat, now you’re lying through your teeth
You got your record on repeat, we become the company we keep
You got your record on repeat, you got your record on repeat

Sometimes I feel like I’m losing my mind
Waiting like a fool on that long distance line
Your connection’s breaking up I can’t hear what you said
Or was it just your sweet nothings playing in my head

Let’s be real, you haven’t been a really good friend lately
You say it’s me who’s changed but I don’t think you’re all that saintly

It’s time, It’s time to let you slip away
On my own again, I am my own best friend
Your touch ain’t good enough for me
Your kiss ain’t good enough for me
Your love ain’t good enough for me
You got your record on repeat, you got your record on repeat
You got your record on repeat, now you’re lying through your teeth
You got your record on repeat, we become the company we keep
You got your record on repeat, you got your record on repeat

You keep on telling me you wanna break the cycle
Then we fall back in the same old patterns that got us here
Back to square one, alone is where I’ll always be 
The last person to see the error of my ways was me

It’s time, It’s time to let you slip away
On my own again, I am my own best friend
Your touch ain’t good enough for me
Your kiss ain’t good enough for me
Your love ain’t good enough for me
You got your record on repeat, you got your record on repeat
You got your record on repeat, now you’re lying through your teeth
You got your record on repeat, we become the company we keep
You got your record on repeat, you got your record on repeat

Funny you say that, I did everything I could to boost the vocals, but thank you! 

Yes, I've heard of IAMX. I heard the song "Lulled By Numbers" years ago and thought it was amazing.
