In recent years, some music fans have started to wonder if Cup of Joe is now filling the space once held by Never the Strangers.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;ve been hearing &lsquo;Multo.&rsquo; The melody is so powerful. Honestly, I wish I wrote that song. So, it&rsquo;s okay,&rdquo; said Ace of Never the Strangers. &ldquo;In the emotional spectrum, we&rsquo;re in the same universe. I&rsquo;m thankful that they compare them to us,&rdquo; added Nash.
Never the Strangers became known for their 2012 hit &lsquo;Moving Closer.&rsquo; Their heartfelt lyrics and synth-pop sound won over many listeners.
Because both bands share a mellow vibe and emotional themes, some fans feel that Cup of Joe sounds like a modern version of Never the Strangers. This has sparked online conversations comparing the two groups&mdash;their style, popularity, and influence.
Despite the comparisons, both bands continue to make music and connect with fans in their own ways. Never the Strangers may not be as active in the mainstream as before, but they still have loyal followers. Meanwhile, Cup of Joe is gaining strong momentum in the new wave of OPM.
Of course, Never the Strangers didn&rsquo;t leave without performing their hit singles &ldquo;Moving Closer,&rdquo; &ldquo;Alon,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Sumayaw.&rdquo; So if you want to hear them, Fam, watch the full video on Hangover&rsquo;s YouTube channel.
