Clean Bandit Symphony

I’ve been hearing symphonies

Before all I heard was silence

A rhapsody for you and me

And every melody is timeless

Life was stringing me along

Then you came and you cut me loose

Was solo singing on my own

Now I can’t find the key without you

And now your song is on repeat

And I’m dancin' on to your heartbeat

And when you’re gone, I feel incomplete

So if you want the truth

I just wanna be part of your symphony

Will you hold me tight and not let go?

Symphony

Like a love song on the radio

Will you hold me tight and not let go?

I’m sorry if it’s all too much

Every day you’re here, I’m healing

And I was runnin' out of luck

I never thought I’d find this feeling

'Cause I’ve been hearing symphonies

Before all I heard was silence

A rhapsody for you and me

(A rhapsody for you and me)

And every melody is timeless

And now your song is on repeat

And I’m dancin' on to your heartbeat

And when you’re gone, I feel incomplete

So if you want the truth

I just wanna be part of your symphony

Will you hold me tight and not let go?

Symphony

Like a love song on the radio

Will you hold me tight and not let go?

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Ah ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Ah ah, ah

And now your song is on repeat

And I’m dancin' on to your heartbeat

And when you’re gone, I feel incomplete

So if you want the truth

(Oh, oh, oh)

I just wanna be part of your symphony

Will you hold me tight and not let go?

Symphony

Like a love song on the radio

Symphony

Will you hold me tight and not let go?

Symphony

Like a love song on the radio

Will you hold me tight and not let go?

Symphony is a modern classical song with Zara Larsson featuring. Became number one in the United Kingdom, becoming Larsson's first number one single, as well as Clean Bandit's third number one in the UK. The music video was released the same day as the song was released. The music video features Zara in a glittery dress with Clean Bandit and an orchestra while we see a narrative played through out. The video starts off with a young man riding his bike and cuts to a crash scene. The next scenes show two men together doing various activities. They are a couple and live together and one has been killed in an accident. The man who is alive is shown grieving and visiting the spots where he and his boyfriend used to go. He then begins to write music again as we find out he is a composer and his boyfriend was his inspiration. By the end, he has composed a beautiful symphony in his boyfriend's memory. The video ends with him looking out into the crowd while his deceased boyfriend looks on proudly.

A symphony is an extended musical composition, which literally translates as "sounding together". 

The reason why we picked this song is because it can be interpreted in the way you want it to be. We also found that it is an easy-going song that would go with our storyline ideas.
