So let's talk about music shall we?
I'm going to try something new with this whole blogging thing here in SG. Now I know I won't get as much pop here then I would on the Tumblr grounds. But you know, I could come back to these posts and think, "Shit, I was sure right!" or the "Well, I guess I was really wasted when I did this..." sort of reactions. And so, let's just test the waters and start off with what I'm currently listening to.
2nd Flight - Approaching Nirvana ft. Veela
The Lyrics
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
"Fox trot, do you copy, yeah it's
Just, as we thought, under the
Farmhouses
Are bombs, we've never seen before and
They're armed.
Same as all, they're getting nauseous and they
Don't know how, and we're convinced that
These are the cause , they're radiating gamma
Rays, above."
"There's four of us,"
She said as she turned around
"There's four of us,
And how could we let them down?"
"I'm proud of us
We are strong now,
Intelligent and
We can solve anything
We put our heads to
We're the tightest team
I've known so
Don't hesitate and
Focus this time."
They put their hands away
Shared a look
Broke into smiles
Lingered for a while
Took their tools from the pile
Standing like a plank she could se around her
Tan sea devoid of trees and flowers
Dusty and living despite no water
Between lone barns
She joined the rest of them
Yeah, careful calculations,
Dirt walls above them
Trying to find the cause
Shovel hit something
Hard, and his brow furrowed
"Look what I found."
He took his tilly hat off
And handed it to his brother
Continued staring at the
Orb, and gave the spade to another
Sick aluminium
Glow, counting down foreign numbers
"Who put this in the ground?"
She put her hand on his shoulder
And took a look back to the other two
"This time we make our own orders
I think we know what we have to do."
She leaned back
And shrugged at the plane
Pointed at
The bomb then at the air
"The four of us,
Let's take them all out of the ground.
Then fly them up
And let our bodies sparkle down."
"I'm proud of us
We are strong now,
Intelligent and
We can solve anything
We put our heads to
We're the tightest team
I've known so
Don't hesitate and
Focus this time."
They put their hands away
Shared a look
Broke into smiles
Lingered for a while
Took their tools from the pile
Twenty in a bag high
They laughed and thought of their lives
Remembering the good times
There's truth in what you said
There's light in what you said
"You know that I love you boys
You've each done me really proud."
They held their hands, eight eyes closed
Took a last look at the clouds
This is a fairly new track from the new release from Approaching Nirvana and it's quite fantastic to be honest. I have been a Veela junkie for about a few years now. I would like to say maybe 2 years or 3 as she has rocketed through many electronic and dubstep tracks throughout her career. Her vocals bring this song to life with her own spin of a story. Like most of her features, the stories she sings bring this emotional ambiance you could take and put your own perspective as the beats thump and the twilight like twinkle sounds lull you throughout the song.
Approaching Nirvana's mix here brings a sort of serenity and uplifting flow. Weaving in between each other, you could of just slapped this into a euromix and let people mindless flow into their own paradise of dancing and setting themselves free. Which is not a bad thing mind you. It's a good side step from the blaring quad bumps of dubstep and happy hardcore most people are listening to.
I say, just play the track, sit back, close your eyes, and let Veela sing you a tale you'll probably day dream harder then any blockbuster movie out now. Approaching Nirvana at the helm, you'll enjoy the ride this flight will take you. If anything, you'll enjoy it a 2nd time.
