"Cool for the Summer" by Demi Lovato (Remixed by TRONICBOX) S8E4: 80's Coming Back
This week, I wanted to go for something that surprised me when I was listening to it. Ultimately, I decided to go with this remix of Demi Lovato's "Cool For the Summer" remixed by Tronicbox. The original version of the song has always been a cute bop, there's no denying that. However, this version completely blew me away. First of all, the Saxophone intro and the Sax solo following the first chorus blew me away on my first listen. Additionally, the little productions hits throughout, especially during the chorus and the bridge were really great. The electric guitar that comes out play during the last chorus as well were particularly interesting as well. Overall, I think this is a great remix that really shows the best of both the original song, and the signature aspects of 80s synthwave that we all love.
| LYRICS
Tell me what you want What you like It's okay I'mma little curious too Tell me if it's wrong If it's right I don't care I can keep a secret could, you? Got my mind on your body And your body on my mind Got a taste for the cherry I just need to take a bite Don't tell your mother Kiss one another Die for each other We're cool for the summer (Ha) Ooh Ooh Take me down into your paradise Don't be scared 'cause I'm your body type Just something that we wanna try 'Cause you and I We're cool for the summer Tell me if I won If I did What's my prize? I just wanna play with you, too Even if they judge Fuck it all Do the time I just wanna have some fun with you Got my mind on your body And your body on my mind Got a taste for the cherry I just need to take a bite Don't tell your mother…

WEEK 4 • 80's Coming Back
"Numb" by Linkin Park (remixed by Jerry Galeries)
Well... I initially submitted another song, but I've decided to change my entry (Daniel said we could until the last person posted). I was stuck between this and my initial submission, but after some thinking, I think this really fits the assignment so much better.
You've got: - The iconic 80's synths and beats.
- Chester Bennington's raspy vocals, which in this 80's remake, is reminiscent of the likes of iconic 80's rock bands like Bon Jovi and Journey.
- That long, repeating "fade-out" ending that is very much a thing of 80's music tracks.
Hearing this for the first time caught me off guard in a great way. I can't believe this track from 2003, which was a drastically different music era, could fit so well with the right production despite its angsty lyrics. It just works!
| LYRICS (taken from the original version)
I'm tired of being what you want me to be Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface I don't know what you're expecting of me Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow Every step that I take is another mistake to you Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there Become so tired, so much more aware I'm becoming this, all I want to do Is be more like me and be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me? Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control 'Cause everything that you thought I would be Has fallen apart, right in front of you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow Every step that I take is another mistake to you Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow And every second I waste is more than I can take
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there Become so tired, so much more aware I'm becoming this, all I want to do Is be more like me and be less like you
And I know I may end up failing, too But I know you were just like me With someone disappointed in you
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there Become so tired, so much more aware I'm becoming this, all I want to do Is be more like me and be less like you
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there I'm tired of being what you want me to be I've become so numb, I can't feel you there I'm tired of being what you want me to be

"Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry 80's coming back
3.07+
- Teenage Dream by Queen Katy Perry released in 2010 from the legendary album of the same name is probably considered among her most acclaimed songs. It's very nostalgic and that's why I think it fits perfectly lyric wise as well.
- 80's vibes add to the production of the track that's originally subtle and simple with a couple beats being present in the original. Remix gives it more groove and more dynamic especially in the pre-chorus. It's a perfect song to disco to on the dance floor when it was a song to sob and reminiscent to. Also Katy's raspy voice is perfect for 80's track and out of all Katy remixes Teenage Dream shows that
- Going though this challenge, I wanted to either make a modern artist's song into something that was made into 80's (Whitney, Madonna, ABBA) but went into more safe category with getting some midtempo cutsie pop song and gives it 80's beat which fits like in this case. Of Course, going with Katy is dangerous as it seems like I didn't look at all and just went with I will send Katy but I did try other artists firstly like Rihanna, Gaga, BLACKPINK and Katy's Teenage Dream is what sticked to me the most. I hope I explained my choice well as that's my weakest spot....

EPISODE 4 - 80's COMING BACK
Missy Elliott - "Get Ur Freak On"
[Intro]
Kore kara minna de mechakucha odotte
Sawago sawago!
Headbanger, hit me, hit me, hit me, hit me...
Yeah, gimme some new shit
Gimme some new shit
Gimme some new shit
Gimme some new shit
[Verse 1]
Missy be puttin' it down, I'm the hottest 'round
I told y'all motherfuckers, y'all can't stop me now
Listen to me now, I'm lastin' twenty rounds
And if you want me (n-word) then come on, get me now
Is you with me now? Then biggie, biggie bounce
I know you dig the way I sw-sw-switch my style
Holla
People sing around
Now people gather 'round, now people jump around
[Hook]
Go, get your freak on, go, get your freak on
Go, get your freak on, go, get your freak on
Go, get your freak on, go, get your freak on
Go, get your freak on
Go, getcha getcha getcha getcha getcha freak on
Go, get your freak on, go, get your freak on
Go, get your freak on, go, get your freak on
Go, get your freak on, go, get your freak on
Go, get your freak on
Go, getcha getcha getcha getcha getcha freak on
After having a look at different 80's mixes my choice came down to 4 songs, ultimately this was literally speaking to me and calling me out to send it and that is the rap queen Missy Elliott! She's getting an 80's twist!
We all know how much of a rapstar that the queen Missy Elliott is. I feel she has paved the landscape towards the new millenia with hr fab rap songs and mixing one of her iconic songs like "Get ur freak on" with the 80's vibe and synth sounds is just a fab piece of music. Her rap skills fit in so well with the synth sounds in the background, and the video (although hilarious) fits so well with the theme and the 80's vibe and music. The synth sounds also give us a reminder of the song Take on me by a-ha. A legendary song from the 80's and taking inspiration from that and placing it with a bopper like Missy Elliott. We love a masterpiece of a creation .
This is a risk this week having a rap song remixed to an 80's Anthem bop (Which to me it is dolls) After last weeks bottom placing!
Time to step the pussy up to max gear and get our freak on!!
