Stranger (or Stranger When You're Not Around) is an unreleased song by Tally Hall.

History

The existence of Strangers was revealed during a June 16th 2020 episode of Keep Up The Good Work with Zubin where they tease its possible future release.[1] The song was written during the time leading up to the recording of Good & Evil and was pitched in 2010 to Atlantic Records as a single, who would sadly reject it.

On July 30th 2021, the Twitter account for Sonic Lunch tweeted out supposed artwork for a "3rd Tally Hall album' named "Stranger".[2] This would send some members of the Tally Hall fanbase into a frenzy, however it was revealed not long after that this was just artwork made by Harry Gold for the then-upcoming Ultimate Tally Hall Documentary by YouTuber Just Jargon.[3]

Song Meanings

The lyrics or recording haven't been released so there's little to no way to infer a meaning of the song. Andrew and Zubin have joked about the song taking on a new meaning if they were to perform it decades in the future, that being about the people they've lost over time.[1]

This meaning however is not the actual meaning of Strangers.
