Although Gryffin has recently been on the cusp of a major breakthrough, he began his musical journey growing up as a classically trained pianist, before expanding his sonic palette with guitar at an early age. He played in bands to initially hone his instrumental abilities, until he dove head first into the world of music production at the University of Southern California. Throughout college and beyond, Gryffin further refined his skills that have blossomed into his artistic mastery that is appreciated by his counterparts and adoring fans around the world. In his genre, artists typically DJ to showcase their talents, but live performance is where his heart lies in capturing the essence of his work.
With a world-debut at this past SnowGlobe Music Festival, Gryffin unveiled his anticipated live performance to finally connect with those who have been behind his impressive play counts. His passion and love for musicianship, and artistry within music shined through as he performed with live instrumentation (guitar, keyboard, synths, & drum pads) in a continuous dance music format to keep up the energy characteristic of DJ sets. Since this performance was a resounding success, the excitement is brewing for his next two sold-out shows at Los Angeles’ The Roxy, and New York’s Bowery Ballroom to close out his first-ever live tour.
Following the conclusion of the tour, Gryffin made the leap to his first original production, “Heading Home” featuring Josef Salvat, which immediately became #1 on Spotify’s Global Viral 50 chart, US Viral Chart, and accumulated a million plays in one week after being released via Darkroom/Interscope Records. It’s already looking like 2016 is going to be Gryffin’s biggest year yet.

Nothing I can say phone to phone
I'll tell you something but you have to sit close
You're the one that I miss the most
I've heard that you're happy
And maybe it's selfish of me
To want you back this time
But it kills me now
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
Though we're over, we're so not over
Pull me closer, I need closure
This is our last goodbye
Stay the night, even just for a moment
Even just for a moment
When you're not hurting
It's hurting me (hurting me)
I'm blinded by the past
I'm lost at sea (mm)
I've heard that you're happy
And maybe it's selfish of me
To want you back this time
I know we decided it's better if we both were free
But it kills me now
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
Though we're over, we're so not over
Pull me closer, I need closure
This is our last goodbye
Stay the night, even just for a moment
Even just for a moment
Even just for a moment
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
Though we're over, we're so not over
Pull me closer, I need closure
This is our last goodbye
Stay the night, even just for a moment
(Moment, moment, moment, moment
Moment, moment, moment, moment)
Even just for a moment
(Moment, moment, moment, moment, moment, moment)
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Even just for a moment
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
The lyrics to Gryffin’s song ‘Just For A Moment’ talk about the idea of wanting to reunite with an ex-partner just for a short time. The opening lyrics suggest that the singer wishes to share a secret with their ex-partner but they want them to be physically close to do so. The song talks about how the singer knows that they both agreed to end things, but it is difficult to move on. The lyrics then ask their ex-partner to stay with them for a short time, ‘even just for a moment’, pretending that everything is alright between them.
The lyrics showcase the internal struggle of someone who is going through a breakup, but who still has strong feelings for their ex-partner. They know that the relationship has ended, but they are unable to let go completely. The song talks about the importance of closure; the singer needs closure from the relationship and the only way to get it is if their ex-partner stays for one last night. The song is relatable for anyone who has gone through a breakup and wishes to have one last moment with their ex-partner.

I'm blinded by the past
My memories of our time together are overwhelming me with emotion
I'm lost at sea (mm)
I am feeling directionless and unsure of how to move forward
(Moment, moment, moment, moment
Repetition of the word 'moment'
Won't you stay the night
I am requesting that you spend the evening with me
Even just for a moment?
Even if it is just a brief period of time?
Even just for a moment
Even if it is just a brief period of time

@Sterlo139
What about the people that disliked?🤔
@nurrahmathanif
there's no great taste lol. it's just your own preference. some people think classical and jazz musics are harder and more complex than modern one or etc. but some people prefer listen to this kind of song cause it's more easy listening and simple, it's just your option.
@Inieslife
2024 anyone?
