Fast forward almost two years & The Expressions (feat' Lee Fields), have successfully created a unique and personal sound that can hold court with the bands they set out to emulate. However, what was created in the process goes beyond just a carbon copy of a sweet soul music. The music has developed into a deeply soulful mix of old and new. The formula stayed the same but the style has been adapted for the ears of people who didn’t grow up on Al Green or Sam Cooke. Elements of modern music have crept their way into the mix to create something entirely fresh and unique. The Expressions have surely lived up to the name, each song they make is choked full of raw emotion that permeates deep through your ear hole straight to the soul.

To see your face I feel so humble you love me
You love me again
And all those memories do they mean to you what they mean to me
I feel so hopeful you love me you love me gain
I am not over you yet
Girl you are in my head I can’t forget
I am still hanging on
I am still hanging on
When we set down the look in your eyes
Was the same as mine I know I got to change it
I surely would heard about your new friend
Tell me is it true is this really
Cause I came back for me and you
I am not over you yet
Girl you are in my head I can’t forget
I am still hanging on
I am still hanging on

I am not over you yet
Girl you are in my head I can’t forget
I am still hanging on
I am still hanging on
I am still hanging on
I am still hanging on
I am still hanging on
I am still hanging on
