Lyrics

Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a mirror
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Usually I put somethin' on TV
So we never think about you and me
But today I see our reflections
Clearly in Hollywood, layin' on the screen
You just need a better life than this
You need somethin' I can never give
Fake water all across the road
It's gone now, the night has come, but
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
You can't fight it, you can't breathe
You say something so lovin', but
Now I gotta let you go
You'll be better off in someone new
I don't wanna be alone
You know it hurts me too
You look so broken when you cry
One more and then I say goodbye
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
I just wonder what you're dreamin' of
When you sleep and smile so comfortable
I just wish that I could give you that
That look that's perfectly un-sad
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a mirror
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a mirror

Glass Animals, the British indie band, made waves in 2020 with their smash hit single “Heat Waves”. This track, from their album Dreamland, quickly became a favorite, blending indie pop with elements of electronic music to create a sound that’s both soothing and captivating. The song’s success can be attributed to its smooth, atmospheric production and relatable lyrics that resonate with listeners worldwide. But what made this song stand out in particular? Let’s take a deeper dive.


The Success of “Heat Waves”

“Heat Waves” wasn’t an immediate chart-topper, but its rise was steady, and by 2021, it had reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, marking the band’s first time at the top. The song’s ability to connect emotionally with listeners, combined with its mellow but addictive beat, gave it staying power.

The song addresses themes of emotional distance, self-reflection, and nostalgia, encapsulating the feeling of longing and the experience of enduring emotional “heat” during tough times. Its lyrics evoke imagery of being caught in a heatwave, metaphorically speaking, representing moments of emotional turmoil and the intense desire to escape. The repetitive yet soothing melody mirrors these themes, giving the song an ethereal quality.

The band consists of Dave Bayley (lead vocalist and songwriter), Drew MacFarlane (guitarist), Edmund Irwin-Singer (bassist), and Joe Seaward (drummer). Bayley, the primary member and the driving force behind the band, is the lead singer and the one responsible for the band’s distinct sound. Glass Animals’ music has often been described as a fusion of indie, pop, electronic, and psychedelic rock, giving them a unique edge within the indie scene.
