Backstory:
Positive Comparison is a stirring indie-pop band that emerged from the central streets of Chicago in 2013. The band is comprised of four members: frontman and lead vocalist Dexter Hammond, guitarist and backup vocalist Hailey Collins, bassist Trent Parker, and drummer Oliver Hunter. Initially, the band members were college friends interested in different genres of music, yet they had a shared love for musical exploration and creation. This led them to start jamming together in their dorm rooms. Their unique style of mixing classic pop with indie elements quickly caught the attention of the local crowd, and before long, Positive Comparison found themselves playing at local music festivals and clubs.

While the band started as a fun college project, they soon realized they were onto something bigger. The name Positive Comparison came about from their desire to inspire their listeners to feel good about themselves and encourage them to value their unique attributes instead of comparing themselves to others negatively. Their lyrics often carry a strong message of accepting oneself and fostering a positive mindset.

“Reflections of Tomorrow”

Full Song Lyrics:

Verse 1:
Em G D A
Look in the mirror, what do you see?
Em G D A
A face full of dreams, waiting to be free
Em G D A
Don’t hide behind the shadows, don’t you see?
Em G D A
You’re more than a reflection, you’re a sea.

Chorus:
C G D Em
Reflections of Tomorrow, in your eyes
C G D Em
Stand tall, let your spirit rise
C G D Em
Don’t look back, don’t compromise,
C G D Em
You are the sun, in the endless skies.

(Repeat Verse and Chorus)
