Touch Me With A Kiss

Cigarettes After Sex “Heavenly”

There’s no catch to “Heavenly.” It’s a romantic song about romantic love, with nothing to subvert or undermine that feeling. Greg Gonzalez sings his lyrics with an earnest purity – his voice is soft and gentle, but there’s also a firm certainty in his phrasing. The music conveys lovey-dovey infatuation without a trace of anxiety or impatience. Gonzalez is presenting an idealized version of the sort of intense love that seems to stop time, or at least slow it down to a crawl. It sounds like eyes locking, lips pulling back from a kiss, and the tiniest physical sensations amplified times a hundred.
