It's raining bullets out my window
A sea of shells are on the ground
It may be fatal when the wind blows
But you and I are safe in sound




Overall Meaning

From a producers standpoint, this guy has some of the best mixdowns ive ever heard in the genre of drum and bass as a whole. There are a few handfull of producers that seem to really know what they're doing. Either from doing it for so long, or just really knowing. Either way , to me, this guys entire first album is a classic and a must have.

I don't want this song to only be 3 minutes it should be 6 at the least! SO AMAZING!!!!!

Nyth

I don't really give a damn about whether or not Sub Focus changed in a good/bad way. All I have to say is that this is a damn good song and that build up and drop at 1:27 gives me goosebumps so good.

This is simple but great. One of the best drum n bass that I have ever listened to. I love songs that kind of 'soul' stir in a way, kinda emotional. I wish there were more like this one, also Exposure- Melo, Doctor- Melo, and Nowhere by Smooth ft Tasha Baxter are decent dnb ;-)

That Mary O'Hara sample is gorgeous, Nick used it beautifully, cant wait for this album.

This guy really is on point with his production right now Brilliant Tune

Mathery

Can't say I'm sure about the sound Sub Focus used for the build up, but the drop physically made me smile. I love this kind of drum and bass.

José Monteiro

An opinion to everybody stating (and correctly, I also believe) that this music is aiming for the top positions in the charts, You can't really prevent it, mainly when it comes to dnb producers, take Netsky for example. Everyone is bound to at somepoint in their career produce to a wider range of listeners, hence the "mainstream" kind of dnb we hear in this tune, and have been hearing from Sub Focus. Still, not a bad tune, excelence in production and the sleepyhead sample is orgasmic.
