Oh My My Capture The Magic Of The Night Out On ‘Make Me Feel Alive’

Sydney electronic duo Oh My My are smashing together pop and R&B influences on their thumping new track Make Me Feel Alive, and it’s really working for them. The way this track draws you in is hypnotising, and band members Sam Thomlinson and Timothy Quaife have a genuine hit on their hands here. This is the kind of track that should be soundtracking your next slightly woozy night out; one where you can’t quite remember what happened, but you know it was fun.

While I write this, I’m watching Bo Burnham’s latest special, Inside, and I feel like this is the type of song that puts things in a more positive context. The pathetic vaccine rollout aside, Australia will get through this. We’re going to be able to dance to songs like Make Me Feel Alive together again soon (in a lot of places, it’s already happening). I must say that watching Bo Burnham open up to what is an empty room, knowing that this will be dissected by countless viewers (seriously, go watch Inside if you haven’t already) while listening to this track is helping me experience the full range of human emotions at once.

Speaking about the track, Sam says, “Lyrically, it’s about tumultuous 20s, where you live for nightlife, relationships are hard, you’re not really grounded and everything’s moving too quickly. It’s about waking up and feeling lost, but having that feeling juxtaposed with when you’re out with your friends, and you’ve had a few drinks on the dancefloor, and you feel at home.”

Check out Make Me Feel Alive. Whether you’re somewhere where you can head out again, or like me, you’re in Melbourne, this track will make you want to dance. It’s part of a double A-side with We All Want The Lights Down, a track that addresses Timothy’s relationship breakdown back in 2019. The songs are meant to be listened to together, so go do that right now. You’ll instantly become a fan of Oh My My.
