Midnight Moonlight is a collaboration between Minneapolis-based artists Kara Laudon and Ben Noble. Fresh off of LP releases in 2019 and 2020, Laudon and Noble wanted to focus on a project that was less daunting and stressful. Avid supporters of each other's artistry, they joined forces, combining Laudon's angelic voice with Noble's unique blend of atmosphere and electronic elements. The COVID-19 crisis forced the pair into their own studios, providing ample time to create and plenty to write about. 

 

"Break You Down" is their first single release, out June 5, 2020. They have an EP on its way as well, set to release in Fall 2020. 

 

Lyrics:

 

I don't wanna break you down, break you down, no  

I don't wanna break you down, break you down, no

I don't know how we deal with it all

How you deal with it all  

​

I don't wanna break you - fill the pieces in my head

You were never really there for my ups and downs

Don't try to change it now

I don't wanna break you

But I know it's gonna take some time

To try to fix it all, again I know

 

I don't wanna break you down, break you down, no  

I don't wanna break you down, break you down, no

I don't know how we deal with it all

How you deal with it all  

​

Don't try to change me now

You get to go and I have to stay here

Took it all away and I don't care how

Don't try to change me, don't try to change me now

Don't try to change me
