Someone Loves You Lyrics - Tom Vek


Review The Song (0)




I need a ride
I need a ride out of here
I need to think
I need to stop and think of what

It grabs my thoughts
It brings me down
Not that anyone cares

And everything
I ever try to do
It takes it's time
With days and nights, too

I didn't know
I cried and cried
But it wasn't the same
But someone loves you

I find lives like this
No fun, no fun
No rays of light this time
No hand-me-downs

You shouldn't think of it all that much
A whole world of things to touch
I don't really know and I've seen everything
But someone loves you
But someone loves you

London's eclectic one-man band Tom Vek combines electronic music with indie rock, punk with dance, and influences like new wave and garage (and also made most of his early recordings in his parents' garage, too). However, as a teen in the mid-'90s, Vek was inspired by grunge and began making rock along the lines of Smashing Pumpkins and Pearl Jam; before that, he backed his guitarist father on bass and drums in their practice space/garage. When his family acquired a reel-to-reel tape recorder when he was 14, Vek began recording his music, which evolved from grungy rock to Warp- and Ninja Tune-influenced electronica as the '90s came to a close. Vek had been sending his music to a friend of the family (who happened to be Alex Cooper, the longtime drummer for Katrina & the Waves) who in turn sent Vek's latest, electronica-inspired music to his cousin (who happened to be Tim "Love" Lee, the head of quirky electronic label Tummy Touch). Lee signed Vek to the label, and in 2001 the 7" "There's Only One Thing Left Now" became Vek's first officially released work. Tummy Touch agreed to release a full-length from Vek, which he began working on in between his graphic design studies at St. Martins. However, Vek's music had morphed again, moving from delicate electronica to something sharper-edged and more rock-based. Singles such as "If You Want" heralded this new direction, as did gigs (with a full backing band) supporting acts like Bloc Party and Engineers. Vek's debut album, We Have Sound, was released in the U.K. in spring 2005 via Tummy Touch, and then sublicensed by Island/Universal. Startime International released the album in the U.S. that fall. After touring in support of the album, Vek took his time making further music. He found a recording space in East London and established PALLET Recording Studios, taking three years to fill it with custom gear and teach himself new production techniques, and another two years to write and record music. Vek resurfaced early in 2011 with the single "A Chore," the first taste of his second album, Leisure Seizure, which was released digitally in June of that year and physically that September.
