Second Challenge

 Week 2 ♦ Hit My Drums ♦

What Kind Of Man By Florence + The Machine
timeslot: 2:32
One of my favorite Florence song,it's beautiful how they use all music and instruments to build an atmosphere
You do such damage, how do you manage?

Trying to crawl in back for more
Talks about being in a toxic relationship, were she feels caged
He manipulates her to his will.
And with one kiss
you inspired a devotion that lasted 20 years

It didn't take much to fall 20 years ago, just one kiss

and he's using that love, in its purest and truest most undeniable form to keep her in his life, even though he has     
no intention of ever giving her what she wants, commitment and devotion. 
Music:
Drums by  Chris Hayden

The song starts with a few instruments, emphasizing in Florence  mystical vocals
After she wonder herself ''What Kind Of Man Loves Like This?'' 
In this moment strong drums come in, this is crucial for the song, cause this drums turns the song more strong and agressive, we can feel her suffering and this song wouldn't be the same without this drums, that's why this song I feel fits perfectly. The drums simbolizes the pain, impacts in her soul. 
The timeslot I chose it's to show how after the car accident, there is a moment of silence filled with mystery, then the drums come in so strong , giving power and spirit to the song

Such a swine lips like wine
But it don't matter to me
Take a turn before I burn
It don't matter to me
Like a snake, I wake and I bake
It don't matter to me
I could fuck or I could fight
it don't matter to me

Cuz it's always the same
And I'm always the same

Uncle Sam, he looks god damned
But it don't matter to me
I don't know where I'm gonna go
It don't matter to me
You could bleed stain my seed
It don't matter to me

Cuz it's always the same
And I'm always the same, whoa

You're not a man everybody says
But it don't matter to me
Dirty feet on my seat
But it don't matter to me
Break my heart tear me apart
It don't matter to me… no no
I put a shine in your eye
It don't matter to me

Cuz it's always the same
And I'm always the same, whoa

"Hit My Drums"
Here is my official entry for week 2. Last week, I was critiqued for not being memorable. This week, I took their advice and did a complete 180 and will send a high impact song you'll surely won't forget! I'm here to redeem myself and slay. 

Song:
Man with a Mission, "Dogdays"


(3:45-4:00) 

About the song:
"Man with a Mission" is a rock band from Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. They all perform with dog masks and sing in English. Their drummer is named spear rib, which is metal. This song is catchy and will have you screaming "yeah, yeah"!

How does it match the theme?
Well, the song kicks off with a high speed drum solo, which sets the mood that this song will be lit. The drums completely control the pace of the song. The skill of the drummer is superb as it is lightning fast and extremely difficult to play.  This song has me air drumming throughout. The drums act as an exclamation point for the song and you won't forget them, thus they're memorable! Please have a listen and enjoy

Lyrics:

Counting on, the cracks in the pavement
Counting on, till I reach a better place
What is wrong, l can't figure out
But I feel all right, feel all right, feel all—
Let it out, to find a replacement
Let it out, ’cause it’s restless everywhere
What is wrong, l can’t figure out, but
I’ll be all right, be all right

Recalling out, the days I remember
Recalling out all the scenes of yesterday
Innocent, blue and too young, but I feel so right
Feel so right, feel so



[Pre-Chorus]
I’m so high and dry
And I don’t even know the reason why
How much more will I
Be drifting on to try to clean these pile of lies



[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, and I’m losing it
Yeah, yeah, when I’m choosing it
Yeah, yeah, breaking out, out for the better way
Calling up the dog days to be
Yeah, yeah, can I seize it, too
Yeah, yeah, and reveal it, too
Yeah, yeah, breaking out, out from the boring days
Calling up the dog days to live again



[Verse 2]
Listen up, the man in the corner said
Listen up or believe it till you’re dead
Know it's right, l can't figure out
But I feel all right, feel all right
I don’t need, I don't need a perfect life
And I know my dreams won’t go anywhere
Let it be, but I won’t deny myself
And I'll be all right, be all right, be all



[Pre-Chorus]
I’m so cold and blind
And l don’t even know the reason why
How much far will l
Be drifting onto to try clean these pile of lies

[Break]


Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Calling up the dog days to live again [x2]



[Bridge]
Beaten up, smashed to the ground
I never want to die anymore
But all those days are yet the most sad we call
Where it comes
Woah, all the pain all along
Woah, hold off the pain and come on
Woah, maybe where I belong
Now don’t you think so

Yeah, yeah, can I seize it, too
Yeah, yeah, and reveal it, too
Yeah, yeah, breaking out, out from the boring days
Calling up the dog days to live again



[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, and I’m losing it
Yeah, yeah, when I’m choosing it
Yeah, yeah, breaking out, out for the better way
Calling up the dog days to be
Yeah, yeah, can I seize it, too
Yeah, yeah, and reveal it, too
Yeah, yeah, breaking out, out from the boring days
Calling up the dog days to live again

Week 2 - Hit my Drums

Stereo Honey - The Bay


Recap time - 2:18+

This song is so calming and his voice just brings you in, The drum beat gives of a soft feel and really pulls you into the song in such a nice way. 
This is a side of the Sophisticated Pandora D. Lux. I really hope that the judges catch the true beauty and esscence of this song, because its beautiful.

I love the lyrics in this song, especially this part

We hold on to each other tight

Waiting for dawn’s early light

Stranded petrified

We’re waiting for the end

Down by the bay side

Where death greets you like a long lost friend


I feel really connected to this song, it personally means a lot to me. When I hear the lyrics being sung, I want to hold this certain persons hand so much to show them how much that this person mean to me. But nothing happens in the end, and it does feel like Death to me. This person means a lot to me and I hope someday that he knows how much he means to me and knows I'm always here to support him. 

But this song can relate to anyone who want to wait with someone that they care about. The fact if waiitng for the right time can be hard but for everyones sake, I hope their time will come soon.

Just a drop in the ocean

A tiny grain of sand

Trying to run for the shoreline

But we’re miles away from land



Just lay me down beside you

Cause we’ve nowhere left to go

Down beneath the waves love

We move so soft and slow

So soft and slow



We hold on to each other tight

Waiting for dawn’s early light

Stranded petrified

We’re waiting for the end

Down by the bay side

Where death greets you like a long lost friend



Here comes the tide

Wait for a lifeline

Place your fingers in mine

We’ll wait for a lifetime



Help me find a way

Back to the start again

I’ve strayed too far from view

And now there’s no help left to send

If I go does the world keep spinning without me

Cause if it does I don’t want to know

As time slows just give me to the ocean

Steal my heart and soul

Steal my heart and soul

Steal my heart and soul



Here comes the tide

Wait for a lifeline

Place your fingers in mine

We’ll wait for a lifetime

"Jim Jones " SKYND 5.20+ Australian group SKYND, known as representative of Ninelie in Fantasia Contest #14, released a new song couple of weeks ago. As their previous tracks, their songs depicts mass murderers and mysterious deaths. James Warren Jones (May 13, 1931 – November 18, 1978) was an American cult leader who, along with his inner circle, initiated a mass suicide and mass murder in Jonestown, Guyana. He was the founder and leader of the Peoples Temple cult which he began in Indiana during the 1950s. He was officially ordained in 1956 by the Independent Assemblies of God and in 1964 by the Disciples of Christ.[note 1] He moved the Temple to California in 1965 and gained notoriety with its activities in San Francisco in the early to late 1970s. He then relocated to Guyana. In 1978, media reports surfaced that human rights abuses were taking place in the Peoples Temple in Jonestown. U.S. Representative Leo Ryan led a delegation to the commune to investigate what was going on, but he and others were murdered by gunfire while boarding a return flight with some former cult members who had wished to leave. Jones then committed a mass murder–suicide of 918 of his followers, 304 of whom were children, almost all by cyanide-poisoned Flavor Aid. Songs as well as the video depicts the cult with drums and dark red visuals and how the human were brainwashed towards their death. Drum are often used in cults and their noises can give an aura of leadership as well as brainwashing.
