Man, from that first shimmering guitar chord, I was hooked. There’s this awesome blend of glam swagger and psychedelic shimmer that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Royston Langdon (yes, Spacehog’s frontman) brings that signature honey-coated grit to the mic, and his voice slides between raw and soaring with serious emotional impact. And you gotta give props to Mark Plati, who’s worked with Bowie and The Cure, for that rich, cinematic production that keeps everything feeling polished yet alive.
What really gets me is how the song isn’t afraid to lean into big feelings. There’s energy, reflection, heartache, celebration, all in one track. The bass thumps like a heartbeat, the drums crack with tension, and the guitars swell into these face-melting solos that feel both electrifying and bittersweet. And those synth touches? They add just the right amount of dreamy depth. Lyrically, it’s not preaching, just this compelling roared wake-up call to grab life tight before it vanishes.
I love this song, and I honestly think everyone needs “Blink of an Eye” on their playlist right now because it’s that perfect combo of heartfelt lyrics, booming energy, nostalgic sheen, modern punch, and emotional punch all wrapped into one killer tune. If you’re into songs that make you feel alive and thoughtful at the same time, this one’s mandatory listening.
