about

SunDub’s next victim in their series of reggae-flipped R&B hits is none other than the massive 90’s power ballad “Don’t Let Go (Love)” by En Vogue. This anthemic and explosive track aims straight at the hearts of 80’s babies and reggae fans alike, once again highlighting SunDub’s high-level musicianship and production chops. The searing guitar riffs and relentless rhythm section center around the lead vocal that carries each section forward with new purpose and passion. Teters’ interpretation of En Vogue’s lyrics is sure to bring the timeless “unrequited love” story to a new audience while thrilling unexpecting fans of the original.

lyrics

Ooh, ooh
Oh, oh
Ooh, ooh

What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend
Don't you wanna be more than friends
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
You have the right to lose control (don't let go)

I often tell myself that we could be more than just friends
I know you think that if we move to soon it would all end
I live in misery when you're not around
And I won't be satisfied till we're taking those vows
There'll be some love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking
Lovemaking, heartbreaking, soul shaking

What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend
Don't you wanna be more than friends (don't you wanna be)
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
You have the right to lose control (don't let go)

I often fantasize the stars above are watching you
They know my heart and speak to yours like only lovers do
If I could wear your clothes I'd pretend I was you
And lose control
There'll be some love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking
Love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking (oh yeah)

What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend
Don't you wanna be more than friends
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
You have the right to lose control (don't let go)

Running in and out my life has got me so confused
You gotta make the sacrifice, somebody's got to choose
We can make it if we try, for the sake of you and I
Together we can make it right

What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend
Don't you wanna be more than friends
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
You have the right to lose control
No no no no no
What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend
I can't pretend
Don't you wanna be more than friends
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
whoooaa
You have the right to lose control

You got the right, to lose control
You got the right baby, to take it all

whoa whoa whoa
nah nah nah nah , nah nah nah
nah nah nah , nah nah
nah nah nah wooo
