“Sweet & Sour Sugar Lemon” tells the story of finding love during the pandemic, when uncertainty about the future circled our minds and hearts. Love crept into the artist's life while the rest of the world seemed dark and hopeless - which caused an influx of conflicting emotions. Through a catchy chorus and upbeat instrumentals, Eddie Boy explores the various stages of experiencing a worldwide phenomenon that now feels like a distant dream. “Sweet & Sour Sugar Lemon” transports listeners through a timeline of the pandemic, with a resolution of present-day thoughts and feelings around those unsettling years we all experienced together.
"SWEET & SOUR SUGAR LEMON" LYRICS
It was strange, don’t you remember
First exchange was in December
Back then it was hard believing
Quarantine would give it meaning
2019 was bitter
Our future back then tasted like
Sweet and sour sugar lemon
Sweet and sour sugar lemon
Day by day turning sweeter
“Sweet & Sour Sugar Lemon” has been in the making for quite a while. It has gone through many revisions during the recording process, making the final result all-the-more special and full of meaning. Eddie Boy looks back at this song and similar to a time capsule, it takes him back to that time of bittersweet nostalgia of trying to navigate love through the pandemic.
Looking back to this period in my life makes me appreciate a unique love that sprouted during such a dire worldwide situation. There's also a sense of appreciation I feel in the timing of it, being as though we may never experience a reality like that ever again.”
