The song is a brilliant throwback to the 80s, reminding us of the styles that gave rise to music as we know it today, while also providing a pleasant listening experience for anyone &#8211; it\u2019s a song anyone can pick up and get into in just a couple seconds.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based in Sydney, Australia, the duo have been hard at work for the past year and a half, touring their city and its surrounding towns. They released their first single, \u2018Wild Stallion\u2019, on January 14th last year, establishing themselves in the Australian indie scene, and continued to   make great impressions with their next single, \u2018Take Hold Of The Night\u2019, which released September 2nd. Their performance gained them a small, but devoted fan base spread all around Sydney, and they have been making waves recently in the indie rock scene &#8211; something they seek to do more of with \u2018Sweet Moments\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As previously stated, \u2018Sweet Moments\u2019 is a throwback to the 80s, demonstrating the music styles that helped influence modern music. It\u2019s not just a nostalgia trip for those who grew up in the decade &#8211; it\u2019s a window into that part of history and culture for younger people who grew up after those times were over. The song is accompanied by a music video, which shows off those same 80s cultural elements and acts as the perfect visualiser for the song. It\u2019s also an example of expert cinematography &#8211; despite Cosmo Blue\u2019s small budget, they have one-upped their previous video once again, with masterful camera work and great visual effects forming the basis of a great video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This incredible song (and video) has left their fan base wishing for more music &#8211; luckily, another single is being released later this month, which you can learn more about on Cosmo Blue\u2019s Facebook page, linked <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CosmoBlueband\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_28882\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XeMojoekQKw?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Cosmo Blue - Sweet Moments\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/XeMojoekQKw\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this year, on the 9th of June, the Australia-based alt-rock band Cosmo Blue released their latest single (third overall), titled \u2018Sweet Moments\u2019.
