about
ShyBoy’s new single “Backroom” evokes dimly lit dance floors of a different kind. Described by The GATE as "timelessly fun" with vocals that are “slick, rich, and addictive,” “Backroom” was featured in the second season of the CW’s Dynasty reboot. The song’s accompanying music video (directed by Michael Bodie) features a cast of characters intertwined in a sultry, pansexual setting that celebrates the evolution of LGBTQ+ leather and kink subculture. The video was premiered by World of Wonder on their WOW Presents Plus streaming service and posted by the WOW Report, which described the video as a “gritty masterpiece."
lyrics
"Backroom"
(Jason Arnold, Jeff Hoeppner, Mark Nubar)
Performed by ShyBoy
Red light, black walls
After-hours last call
Small room, big sound
Slicked back and torn down
It’s a little fantasy
Escaping my reality
When the thump goes boom
In the backroom
If u come on in, we can begin
U can get just what u want
If u know where 2 go, what 2 do
Find just what u need 2 find
Come and join me inside the backroom
Backlit silhouette
Feel a kiss on your neck
(Blushed cheeks u can’t see,
u can feel them from inside)
It’s a new reality
That’s shaping all my fantasies
(Skin tight and them curves long,
u can the trust the lust inside)
When the thump goes boom
In the backroom
(U can find me where there’s none to stare,
if u dare to come inside)
If u come on in, we can begin
U can get just what u want
If u know where 2 go, what 2 do
Find just what u need 2 find
Come and join me inside the backroom
Blushed cheeks u can’t see
U can feel them from inside
Skin tight and them curves long
U can the trust the lust inside
U can find me where there’s none to stare
If u dare to come inside
If it’s a little bit nasty baby
It’s alright, it’s alright
‘Cause there’s something about u baby
That feels right, so right
