‘Tomorrow Yesterday’ has a lively almost party vibe to the opening as the instrumentation sparkles and shines through the melody.

The perfect fusion of tones lifts your spirits and starts you on the path of living in the moment.

This path is brightened and solidified by the vocals that have an autotune edge to them. As the melody merges tones, the vocals bring a touch of RnB to the proceedings as they lighten the world with a bright message. Through the lyrics, Toby TomTom asks serious questions about life and considers how important it is to live in the moment and enjoy every moment you have. He connects with the feeling of constantly worrying about the future only to shove the worry off your shoulders and get you having fun right now.

You can’t help but feel lighter after listening to this track and you will look at the world a little differently.

As Toby TomTom gets you moving to his rhythm, he has you living in the moment and leaving all your worries at the door with ‘Tomorrow Yesterday’.
