The allure of the voice pulls a listener into “Action (Part 3)”; then, cleverly crafted lyrics and intelligently timed instrumental features maintain the grip. Particularly at the start of the track, the voice shares some of the more appealing vocal characteristics of Thomas Mars, the lead singer of the band Phoenix (compare “Lasso”).
For most of “Action (Part 3),” the instruments seem content to play a support role. The percussion is more interesting than merely a steady beat, but doesn’t demand attention. A piano starts the intro and makes its gentle presence felt throughout the track. Our favorite use of the piano is the insertion of notes at the one-minute mark, while the lyrics begin the second half of “Just like in Hollywood; Do you think we can do this?”. For the guitar, we pinpoint the instrument’s crescendo at 2:55, as the chorus makes its third visit. The lyrical content gives a tip of the hat to cinema, with the couple being concerned with a villain identified as “the center."
Conversing with Oceans is the project of Alex Bondarev, who resides in Bronx, NY. He is originally from the city of Grozny (formally of Russia), but his family immigrated to India to avoid unrest within the city. “Action (Part 3)” is a track on the recently released EP “Trilogy.” According to the Soundcloud site for the track, the contributors to the song include Alex Bondarev (vocals, guitars), Chris Ragone (lead guitars), and Danny Castro (drums).

Lyrics of “Action (Part 3)” by Conversing with Oceans
I said "Don't,
No matter what you do,
Give our secret away.”
It's our secret and we're sworn to keep it.
The center's watching and the clock is ticking on you.
And it's ticking on me too.
But, my god baby don't it feel good?
Just like the movies.
Just like in Hollywood.
Do you think we can do this?
"Cause I won't" I said.
"I'll never give you up."
If they want me dead
Put me in that cold, cold blood.
Just like in Hollywood.
Hey, just like those movies.
Cause I'll never give you up
If promised to do this.
A defector says
The center's on to you
There's nothing we can do.
They're sure to track us down now
Down now.
But, my god baby don't it feel good?
Just like the movies.
Just like in Hollywood.
Do you think we can do this?
"Cause I won't" I said.
"I'll never give you up."
If they want me dead
Put me in that cold, cold blood.
Just like in Hollywood.
Hey, just like those movies.
‘Cause I'll never give you up
If promised to do this.
Now it's down to the chase scene.
Please tell me it's a bad dream.
Your defiant eyes in slow motion
The most beautiful I've seen.
Did we want it all?
Did we risk too much?
Now I wait here baby.
To die for your touch.
"Cause I won't" I swear
"I'll never give you up."
If they want me dead
Put me in that cold, cold blood.
Just like in Hollywood.
Hey, just like those movies.
Cause I'll never give you up
If promised to do this.
Get up now baby
‘Cause we really can't stay the night.
Get up now baby
‘Cause they have us in their sights.
Get up now baby
'Cause we really can't stay.
Get up now baby
We'll be on our way
Get up now baby
‘Cause we really can't stay the night.
