about

“'Hot' started as some kind of jam with myself, I came up with the bass line and experimented with a Yamaha DJX keyboard. Originally, I had no words for it, just a groove with some weird synth gimmicks. I put it on our cloud and everybody picked up on it and came up with some super-cool parts. Eventually, I found the vocal melody about a fantasized claustrophobic love affair and that was it.”

-- Xavier Boyer

lyrics

I’m not sure if I can keep
This secret to myself
So tell me what you wanna do
‘bout this thing between me and you

Chorus:
I know I know I know
You’ve got it all under control
It seems to me that you’re
Playing with my soul

For you it doesn’t matter
For you I should know better
But it really does matter
It keeps getting stronger for me
Can you tell me what you want us to be?

(Chorus)

I need to find a way
If you could let me know
Then I would let you go,
Let you go, let you go…

(Chorus)
