Here’s another one I
love.
Yeah, yeah, it’s not
technically Indie. And I suppose it's not really "chill". But I don’t recall
saying that I would only do Indie music on the CMS, and I really love this
song. It’s definitely great to chill to... In a very, rock/metal sort of way.
First thing I noticed
was her RED PLAID PANTS. Well, tights/leggings
really. And may I say, they are quite
wonderful? Yes I may? Oh good.
I enjoyed that they
kept that whole red and black theme running through most of the video. Well, except for that weird inside shot in
the white room where she’s wearing those weird star pants? The best thing about that shot is that the
bassist is wearing an outfit with a skeleton all the way down. Yes, that’s right. A life-size skeleton. Pretty much awesome.
The video was
wonderful how they shot it in the forest and there were dreamy crystal
chandeliers for lighting around them (but on the forest floor, not above them—how
does that work? SM probably couldn’t figure out how to hang them in the trees…)
and the lighting and the view were all a little blurry so that it seemed like a
punk-rock fairy-tale dream. Then they
move it to this white room, and I don’t even want to comment on that, because
it was cool, but the forest was cooler.
Ha ha, and the second guitarist was totally posing in the white room
(another thing beside the skeleton outfit that was awesome)! Anyone else find that hilarious?
The song:
First, I suppose, is
that I love that this is an actual band playing actual instruments. Yes, I do love the boy and girl bands out
there, but the addition of instruments to a band makes them an actual “band”
and I love that. I also love that it’s a
female vocalist with an otherwise all-male band. Those tend to go fairly well, at least in the
States. Flyleaf. Paramore.
Halestorm. I suppose I just like
that sound.
It’s a wonderful
song, even though I can’t understand the lyrics. It’s got a great sound, mixing the electronic
elements with the actual instruments and the vocals to make a sort of rock sort
of wonderful song. Okay, maybe it’s not
chill (I'm so done apologizing for that), and my inner rocker is just crying out to write about it. I could listen to this song on repeat for hours. It really never gets old.
Last I suppose: I love
the outfits! Well, mostly. I love her leggings, love the bassist’s
skeleton outfit, love the guitarist’s whole wardrobe, and definitely love the
drummer’s gray top hat. And really, that
is the most noticeable thing about a drummer: his head, at least until he gets
out from behind the drum set.
If you haven’t seen
the video yet, you should check it out here:
And I'm going to work on getting a poll up for the next Chill Music Stash so you darlings can vote!
Have a fantastic week!
this is based on a manga!!!!! at least i think.....its called Hana kimi.....it seems alot like it
ReplyDeleteYeah! It's Hana Kimi. Well, I think what they did was take the J-Drama and make it into a Kdrama. I looooved the J-Drama and am afraid to watch the Kdrama, in case it wasn't as amazing! ;)
