Honey (2024) – Mr Bewlay

I first heard Honey on the Eclectic Music Lover blog last year and I have enjoyed listening to it ever since. It’s groovy as heck and the dance vibe is infectious. Honey was the second single from Mr. Bewlay’s Against All Reason EP and the final installment of his Reason Trilogy.
Mr. Bewlay is from Cardiff, Wales. His creative roots lie in the theater, which imbues his work with a bold, flamboyant energy. It’s said he embraces the idea of performance as a role – whether as a theatrical actor or an avant-garde pop-rock provocateur. Though his art is deeply intentional, it never veers into the overly serious, instead embracing a vibrant playfulness.

Honey channels an unmistakable ’80s dance vibe, layered with Bewlay’s signature sensuality. Lyrically it is charged with provocative imagery, it teeters on the edge of indulgent allure. Produced, mixed, and mastered by Lee House, Honey features contributions from Zsofia Pasztori-Kupan on backing vocals and Shishir Singh on guitar.

I’ll be your cardiac arrest
Steal the focus of your breath
Last night we danced in silver rooms
Spinning you round the open lights
Drowning in my eyes
I’ll be your prophet divine
Scream your feelings to the sky
Cos’ honey I like you
Honey the taste of you

Now call my bluff
And fall into my arms

Start to lose your breath
Feel the world in our embrace
I kiss that part you said you like
Shockwave through your spine
Made you come into the room
The focus you instilled
Could push through ennui

All that it took
Was this icy moment’s look
You cast a penetrating thought
Vibrations through the void
And every woman, every man
Had a spell cast on their minds
Throughout the globe

Now call my bluff
Fall into my arms
And all of my love
Falls to dust

Let me lay
Lie, in your honey
Let me lay
And lie, in your honey
All that it took was a momentary look
