“Bonfire” by The Hunna – A Song Review

     The Hunna are traveling at high speed in the UK, based on social media data. But the wind has not fully hit their sails in the U.S. That will change. “Bonfire” exhibits the guitar skills of the band. It also shows the vocal versatility of The Hunna, since it requires both melodious and belt-it-out vocalization. Lyrically, the song is about an impending breakup, which appears to be mutully agreeable; and we particularly love the verse:
Burn. So let's burn this to ashes
Burn. And go our own ways
Burn. So pass me the matches
And we'll both watch the flames.

     The Hunna is from the London area (Hertfordshire). The four members are Ryan Potter (vocals, guitar), Dan Dorney (lead guitar), Jermaine Angin (bass) and Jack Metcalfe (drums).

Lyrics of “Bonfire”
And if you love me then why won't you use me.
If you hate me then why do you care?
You said that we would go the distance.
Now you don't take me anywhere.
I bite my tongue.
But fuck your heart.
And I can't stand, I can't stand you baby.

We don't know which way to go, we don't know which way is home.
We don't know which way to go, we don't know which way is home.

And we blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire
And blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire

And you say you want to be alone
Outside the place that we call home
When you come at me with that face.
I don't know what to say.

We don't know which way to go, we don't know which way is home.
We don't know which way to go, we don't know which way is home.

And we blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire
And blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire
And nothing's gonna feel the same
‘Cause our love is going up in flame
And we blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire

So let's burn this to ashes
And go our own ways
So pass me the matches
And we'll both watch the flames

Burn. So let's burn this to ashes
Burn. And go our own ways
Burn. So pass me the matches
And we'll both watch the flames

And we blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire
And nothing's gonna feel the same

And we blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire
And we blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire
And nothing's gonna feel the same
‘Cause our love is going up in flame
And we blew up like a bonfire. Fire. Fire
