His style can only be described as Cutting edge, dark, driving, pulsating. In the past five years Simon has really clocked up the air miles, rocking some of the biggest parties on offer. Recently he has plied his trade in Rotterdam for crowds of up to 500,000; he has performed at the sun-drenched dance Mecca that is Ibiza year in, year out; and he has completed a huge tour of the far-east and an indoor festival in Russia where he gave 20,000 Muscovites a musical masterclass.
Last summer Patterson graced the world stage at Dance Valley, Sunrise, HI-FI, Planet Love, Mexico Stadium, plus various dates in Ibiza, Dubai, Malta, Netherlands, Canada, Germany and Cyprus and countless UK performances.
His production debut track in 2006, entitled ‘F-16’, was massive; ‘Strip Search’/’Panic Attack’ is the scheduled follow up.
Simon’s alter ego is one half of the massive Dogzilla with Richard Kayvan, most famous for recording the ever-popular ‘Without You’, which spawned the new rock trance movement. It went down as one of the precious few trance records in recent years that claimed anthem status. Countless remixes followed.
The One
Simon Patterson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before we place the phone
I wait to see your final smile
Before I'm on my own
How many lies are left unsaid
How many lies are left unsaid
How many dreams are falling short
And we're singing louder than bombs can fall
And we're falling faster than light
And we're hurting harder than ever before
How does it feel to be the one
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel to be the one
The lyrics of Simon Patterson's song The One are quite emotional and thought-provoking.

The underlying feeling is that of helplessness and sadness, as if the singer is unable to prevent the inevitable.
The lines "How many lies are left unsaid, How many lies are left unsaid, How many dreams are falling short" suggest a sense of regret and missed opportunities. The singer may be reflecting on the things they never said or did before it was too late.

Overall, the lyrics of The One have a haunting quality to them, underscoring the fragility of life and relationships.
Line by Line Meaning
I wait to hear your final breath
I'm clinging onto your presence, even if it becomes an echo in the phone
Before we place the phone
Before reality hits me and we hang up, maybe for the last time
I wait to see your final smile
I hold on to your memory through your parting expression of happiness
Before I'm on my own
Before I'm forced to confront my own solitude and uncertainty
How many lies are left unsaid
I question the authenticity of our relationship and wonder how much we kept hidden from each other
How many dreams are falling short
I reflect on the unfulfilled aspirations we had together
Repeat
Emphasizing the unanswered questions and uncertainties
And we're singing louder than bombs can fall
Despite the world's chaos and turmoil, we still raise our voices in hope and love
And we're falling faster than light
As our love and bond dissipate, we fall and sink into an abyss of emotions
And we're hurting harder than ever before
Our love has reached the pinnacle of pain, beyond anything imaginable
How does it feel to be the one
How does it feel to be the one responsible for the irreversible damage and hurt in our relationship?
How does it feel
Repeating the question again, highlighting the pain and agony of the situation
How does it feel to be the one
The question remains unanswered, leaving the listener to ponder the consequences of their actions

Driving down a highway with this song playing, the orange streetlights passing me by and as soon as I enter a tunnel 4:16 hits in... funny how music hits you and adds to your memories.
Amazing.
