Listen for new music this week on the Fox from Neon Dreams and Maroon 5.

Neon Dreams – Sick of Feeling Useless. 

“Whatever happened to all our good faith
We used to be so free in the old days.
Anxiety got us shattered
Telling us “shut up you don’t matter”

It’s hard to heal
When the world gets too real
Inside of us
WE JUST
NEED TO
FEEL SOME
LOVE

Scream out but no body listens
Try hard but it don’t make a difference
Sick of feeling useless
Sick of feeling
Sick of feeling useless
Every bodies living so selfish
Got us feeling young dumb and helpless
Sick of feeling useless
Sick of feeling
Sick of feeling useless

A combination of 2,474 total images put into a creative stop motion video.  The band says it’s a reflection of how they were feeling at the time.  Despite the success in their music career, even they can’t help but feel useless sometimes.  A discussion about how it’s easy to feel helpless, like nothing matters that much.  A friend of the band said “I think everyone is just sick of feeling useless”.

Vocalist Frank Kadillac says it hit hard because he felt that way his whole life growing up.  “I felt useless until I broke out of my shell… if my fans are different versions of me this is the biggest thing that connects us on this island of misfit toys. People that feel like they don’t matter in this world and are constantly searching for a place to belong, a place that makes them feel like a kid again.”

Maroon 5 – Nobody’s Love

Directed by David Dobkin.  The video was shot in Los Angeles on an iPhone.  Adam Levine shared in an Instagram post the day it was released –

“The entire process of perfecting this song was done with the whole world in mind. Im hoping that nobody’s love is a song that can give everyone a moment of peace and reflection during this unprecedented moment in our world story,” “Whether you are an essential worker on the front lines, an outspoken citizen fighting for social justice, or just someone who needs a break to remember the potent power of love, this song is for everyone. We hope you love it!!!”
