Handbag Moods

by Chenél No.1 & Time to Act

/

about

Manu (Time to Act) had been regularly listening to Chenél’s track Shoot
For The Stars and thought her voice, energy and musical
signature would be a perfect match for the very rocky style
he had in mind for the lyrics of Handbag Moods. He
contacted her for a collaboration which she happily agreed
to.

As a man, Manu has always been amazed by the contents of
handbags, their seasonal nature, the variety of items you
find in them and he found it interesting to see them as
mirror of the soul.

Chenél brings forth a vulnerability in her vocal performance
with this song accompanied by the energetic rock sound
and Manu's perfectly refined the lyrics.

lyrics

In my bag, there’s lipstick and mascara
And a note you slipped in
Call me please
I couldn’t take my eyes off of you

I feel light as a feather
Spring is in the air
Nothing beats feeling special

Do you burn for me
Like I burn for you?
Do you burn for me
Like I burn for you?

In my bag, there’s chocolate and vitamins
with an email from Dubai
Have to extend my stay
So sorry I’ll miss your birthday

I feel doubt sneaking in
Shadows all around
I can’t believe this is happening again

Do you burn for me
Like I burn for you?
Do you burn for me
Like I burn for you?

In my bag, there’s Xanax and novel
With a message you left on the bed
Forgive me please
I’m not ready for this


Why did I burn for you
If you didn’t burn for me?
Why did I burn for you
If you didn’t burn for me?

In my bag there’s blush and an eye-liner
Tissues, sunscreen and book of poems
And a little chocolate heart…
