    Lyrics:
    Concrete, concrete
    Shining everywhere
    Moonlight’s bright
    And the kids don't care.
    Meet me at the streetlight
    Gonna take you there.
    Take you rooftop dancing.
    Slo-mo throwing my body in the air-
    Making the jump from ledge to ledge
    Long hair flying
    We’re out of breath.
    We’re rooftop dancing.
    Look at-look at-look at-
    I can see everything
    Babies double dutching
    Singing their names
    Counting off time
    Doing their thing.
    Sunlight beaming out over the bridge
    We’re all running, outrunning death
    Summertime breaking but we’re chasing it
    Forever rooftop dancing
    Concrete, concrete
    Shining everywhere
    Moonlight’s bright
    And the kids don't care.
    Meet me at the streetlight
    Gonna take you there.
    Take you rooftop dancing.
    Rooftop dancing
    I’ll take you rooftop dancing.

      Dr ChronicJesus I feel you. It can quite easily feel like a logical reaction to our current reality. But, it creates a feedback loop of negativity that does none of us any good. If we’re miserable we’ve already lost.

      @Daanimus Irrelevant. Once they monetize it and I am the focus of a shot they have to ask. As an artist they should recognize that you shouldn't co-opt anthers art/likeness for money without discussion or recognition.

    I’ve been quarantined by myself since May. I see my friends here and there but I live alone so I spend most of my time working from home alone and in my apartment. This song and video are so beautiful, I can’t really explain it but it’s bringing me to tears and helping me to accept this normal I’m finding myself in. Also, I want to go rooftop dancing. 🕺🏻

    I discovered your work with "Coffee" and i was really moved by it.
    This one is way different, it actually makes me want to take my wife and kid once again in a road trip in your magnificent country (i'm French). Hope it will be possible soon considering the situation. While waiting for this trip, your songs will be played in my car as i'm going to work.
    Thanks a lot for your incredible work.

    By the way, much respect to your marketing team. If that's you, I'm even more impressed.
    I'm on the autism spectrum, and I take comfort in the familiar. I listen to most of the same music I've heard all my life. I only heard this song because it played as an ad while I was listening to a playlist I made. I happened to be distracted enough that I let the ad play, and then about a minute in, I tuned into the fact that I'd never heard this song before, but I liked it. So I started actively watching and listening.
    I haven't been able to listen to anything else for an hour now.

    I had to listen to this song 6.5 times before I could even find words for a comment. I don't think I've ever heard of this group before, but I fully expect this song to top the charts once more people are aware of it.
