about

Weigh In is the lead single off Capone’s latest EP, ‘If I Let You In.’ Inspired by an indecisive nature, Weigh In is a sonic exploration of romantic inquietude. Drawing from the cheeky theatrics of Billy Joel and the full bodied vocal presence of Bonnie Raitt, Capone offers a modern anthem of empowering vulnerability.

Originally conceived on a retro Casio keyboard, Capone was joined by the talents of Jack Victor (drums), Peter Brownlee (bass/production), Zack Kardon (guitar) and Merrick Noyes (keys). Together they achieved a sound reminiscent of piano driven pop songs of the 70s.

lyrics

I want to go downtown
I want to go to bed
No one's interesting
I want to help it grow
I want to chop it dead
I can't tell the difference

Call it fun and games
'Til you find out you've been traded
And you have to admit you're afraid,
You're not worth saving

If it were me you know I'd love to weigh in on the subject
If he were mine you would find a lot of objections
If it were me you know I'd love to weigh in on the subject
If he were mine you would find a lot of objections
to the way he spends your time

I want to slow down
I want to pick up speed
I need a direction
I want to make him fall in love
I want to make him bleed
It's all about perspective

Call it fun and games til you find out what you're made of
And you have to admit, you're afraid you're not that brave, love

If it were me you know I'd love to weigh in on the subject
If he were mine you would find a lot of objections
If it were me you know I'd love to weigh in on the subject
If he were mine you would find a lot of objections
to the way he spends your time
