Lonely Meets The Lonely blends 80’s nostalgia with suburban satire, crafting a comedic concoction that feels both familiar and refreshingly modern. While the song basks in the sounds of the 80’s, it’s unmistakably a product of today; its noticeable low end injects a contemporary edge absent in its retro counterparts, while a healthy dose of irony adds layers to the band’s playful approach.
Set to a straightforward 4/4 beat and a chord progression that rings vaguely familiar, the charm of Lonely Meets The Lonely lies not in profundity but in its unabashed embrace of levity. The band’s refusal to take themselves too seriously is infectious, ultimately enhancing the song’s appeal.
It may not be an anthem for soul-searching, but it’s certainly a tune that beckons one to hit the dance floor. Yet, it’s the accompanying video that truly steals the spotlight. With impeccable production values, spot-on casting, and a generous serving of comedic flair, it strikes a perfect balance. And let’s not forget the pièce de résistance: the mustaches, which steal the show and warrant their own round of applause. Credit is unquestionably due where it’s earned.
