A very old song, this must be 2009. Probably 6 or 7 years too late to be an indie disco staple.
The title is random. Someone in the band (who will remain nameless, but plays drums) told us that Hard Sports was a sex thing - similar to water sports I guess, but with more solid matter. The song is not about Hard Sports.
lyrics
Oh baby you give me the chills. Your legs are fit to kill. If I were to swim then I'd surely drown for I just can't function when you are around.
You're kicking the dancefloor to bits with heels that could cause some damage. Stop playing with hearts that you know you won't keep. We both know that tonight you don't want no sleep.
This situation's getting out of control. She don't know what she is starting inside my head tonight. Now my heart won't stop pounding. It never felt so right.
My darling just give me a chance to show you what I mean by romance. Because these types of symptoms suggest I'm pneumonic and these types of thoughts are purely demonic.
This situation's getting out of control. She don't know what she is starting inside my head tonight. Now my heart won't stop pounding. It never felt so right.
Bouncy, urgent, raucous indie rock, anthemic yet unpredictable; this Oxford, U.K. trio sounds defiantly full of life. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 28, 2020
