EB and the Hired Guns‘ latest release, “Crypto Queen,” is a modern-day love story, a song about two people holding on to love despite distance and separation. Set against the lights of San Francisco, screens, messages, and sleepless nights, the song is about romance through the technology that connects two people across the miles.
The lyrics tell that story in intimate detail. a woman called a crypto queen kisses on a skyline, glowing screens, and words of love from miles away. “The emotional heart is the firm conviction that distance and time can be bridged.” The song also discusses love as something that can build its own bridge and not let separation be the end of a relationship.
EB’s “Crypto Queen” and the Hired Guns are an intimacy of a relationship built through messages and digital connections. The song’s stars and wires and its dreams and distance create a very modern romantic environment. It’s a feeling we can all relate to: wanting someone close, no matter the conditions that separate them. The “Crypto Queen” takes that tension and makes it into a story about commitment, hope, and loving someone near and dear to your heart, even when miles keep you apart.
