Drake and Frank Ocean are obvious comparisons to Honne’s lo-fi, synth-heavy soul, but Andy’s voice has the unfinished edges of Bon Iver or James Blake, rather than the crooner smoothness of Bill Withers or D’Angelo. Warm on a Cold Night is a cinematic piece of songwriting that builds from sparse snare drum beats to an infectious, grooving chorus with soaring synths. Demo track All in the Value features a guitar solo worthy of Guns N’ Roses, giving a bizarre, but welcome, late-Eighties feel

Honne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And it's you I'm looking at
Oh your freckles paint a constellation
Your whole body is a map
But I know where I'm going
I have known a long long time
And girl you're going with me
'Cause tonight girl you're all mine
There's no point in trying to hide it
I will come and find it
I know it's in there somewhere
Your love for me is out there
I can hear it calling
Where's your sense of belonging?
We could be getting frisky girl
Till three o'clock in the morning
Something caught my attention
Yeah it's you I'm talking 'bout
'Cause your eyes are like an ocean
I can dive straight into that
And I feel like I'm weightless
When I'm 'round you nothing can bring me down
You make me careless
Not a thing, not one thing could stop us now
There's no point in trying to hide it
I will come and find it
I know it's in there somewhere
Your love for me is out there
I can hear it calling
Where's your sense of belonging?
We could be getting frisky girl
Till three o'clock in the morning
Oh baby, why do you keep on fighting me?
You won't know what you got until it's gone
So screw your head back on
Know that you're my girl
You are my number, my number one
My number one
Girl, you're my number one
There's no point in trying to hide it
I will come and find it
I know it's in there somewhere
Your love for me is out there
I can hear it calling
Where's your sense of belonging?
We could be getting frisky girl
Till three o'clock in the morning

Remember that you're with me
You are my number, my number one
You're my top priority
Girl, you're my number one
Girl, you're my top priority
