If you come over and listen to “Thief (come over)” by Deelo Avery Ft. Chai Sully, you’ll soon find that this track isn’t a waste of your time.
“Thief (come over)” hits melancholic lo-fi indie tones with its ethereal instrumentals that blend crisp guitars and buzzy bass. It develops itself as a track filled with a sweet calm with a sense of yearning that moves through the instrumentation and lyricism. The synths use reverb to fill the air with a sense of introspection, and there’s a light crackle that filters over parts of the track to keep a fullness despite simple instrumentation. Simple, in this sense, is used in the best way possible. Sometimes, less instrumental aspects deliver more, and this track proves it. The main focus goes into the vocals, in which Deelo Avery and Chai Sully play off of each other and harmonize beautifully.
Lyrically, this track tells a story of love, connection, and yearning. It was written to tackle the start of a relationship, in which both parties are interested but aware of what makes them unique and different from each other. The voices tell each other that they should come over, expressing the desire to hold each other and waste each other’s time. The hook is beautiful, and the verses build the story beautifully.
