Solarie

Avril Lavigne & Elvis Presley - I Love You Tender

"LOVE"

60p4ehm7pj78.png

 

 

Tracklist:

 

01. Love Me Tender, Elvis Presley

  

 

 The ep starts with a classic wedding staple in which Elvis sings romantically to the love of his life. The lyrics are beautiful and present love serenade at its purest and truest. We can tell by listening to the track how much the said woman meant for him and how true this love was.

 

02. I Love You, Avril Lavigne

 

 

 

 In one of her rawest and most personal tracks, Avril confesses her unconditional love to the very special person. She describes the love feeling in a very simple and yet true manner. She sings out the reasons why she loves that person so much - she loves them for everything - their behavior,  their smile, their style, their vibe, in conclusion she loves them so much for just being themselves.

 

03. Can't Stop Falling in Love, Elvis Presley

 

 

 

In one of the most beautiful tracks ever created, Elvis confesses that he just can't stop falling in love again and again in the love of his life. Elvis states how much this feeling is meant to be. Simple and honest lyrics are accompanied with a pretty melody. 

 

04. I Will Be, Avril Lavigne

 

 

  

Track that closes this ep is a pure and raw love story. In this magnificent track Avril promises to love her lovers forever and always. She says she will never let them go and will be loving them for everything they are.

 

 

Overall explanation:

 

Rock n roll king himself Elvis Presley, and pop-rock princess  Avril Lavigne combined their talents to create a magical love extended play. This mini album offers four honest and beautiful tracks that present different stages of love, but most importantly TRUE love that is so hard to find. All four tracks are mystical individually, but as a whole, they create PERFECTION. This ep could honestly be played at weddings to come even 50 years from now.

Explanation

 

So for this Heartbeak EP I wanted to tell a story: a journey of multiple heartbreaks and the effects it has on our protagonist, Samnashe, on a quest for love that unfortunately takes an erroneous turn, leading not just to a broken heart, but due to the multitude of breaks, a shattered heart. 

 

Lay Me Down:  A ballad of a very "fresh" breakup. Samnashe is feeling all types of overwhelming, unwanted emotions that Samnashe naively thinks will be absolved by being "layed down tonight", "by your side next to you" of the heartbreaker. Samnashe is very actively hoping and seeking a response from their heartbreaker to temporarily mend this heartbreak.

 

Middle Of Nowhere: A lot less "optimistic" from the previous track. Being deserted, the heartbreak has left Samnashe feeling like a desert. It's a beautiful metaphor for how the act of deserting has left Samnashe feeling. "You deserted me but you left the pain", she softly like desert sand whisper cries. "Middle of nowhere....won't you come find me there" Despite the heartbreak pain, Samnashe still remains somewhat hopeful to be "found".   

 

Too Good At Goodbyes: a powerful first verse, Samnashe very boldly exclaims they are no fool, and unfortunately, not un-familiar to heartbreak.."You must think that I'm new to this, But I have seen this all before". A stark contrast to the heartbroken Samnashe from Lay Me Down, this time there is no naive hope for reconciliation. In fact, Samnashe is reminiscing on former heartbreak to justify why they have their guard up, and to help mentally prepare for the anguish of yet another heartbreak. 

 

Salt: an "over it" attitude, Samnashe is again far from naive regarding an "anticipated" heartbreak. "So when you go and break my heart in two, don't throw salt on the wound" Aware that the relationship is not working out, all Samnashe asks is to not throw salt on the wound. This implies cutting all ties. No "lay me down tonight", no, "come find me in the desert", etc because it will only add pain to the wound. "In another life we'll find a way to win." but not this one.

4. That's The Way It Is - Céline Dion

 

Explanation

  Hide contents

 

This EP is a collaboration with Céline and Robbie. It contains two parts, each talking about a different subject. In each part, there's a back and forth between the two : Robbie sings first, talking about his personal life and feelings, and Céline answers him, motivating and uplifting him, as if she was his mentor, mother or biggest supporter. The four songs are also sonically cohesive. 

 

SIDE A : Robbie starts the EP off with I Will Talk and Hollywood Will Listen wishing to make it big in Hollywood, dreaming at being successful, famous and how his life would be much better and easier. The second track, The Power of The Dream, is Céline telling him to keep dreaming, to never give up and that he will achieve his dreams if he just keeps trying ("The strength of just 'I can"; "It's the moment that you think you can't you'll discover that you can").

 

SIDE B : Robbie starts this part off with Better Man talking about how he needs someone to be there for him and to love him. He's hurt, fragile and needs someone, anyone's support. The song starts out very hopeless ("Send someone to love me, I need to rest in arms, keep me safe from harm in pouring rain"; "Lord, I'm doing all I can to be a better man"). However, there is a glimpse of hope as the song progresses ("Love is all around. I know some have fallen on stony ground, but love is all around). It's empowering in the sense that, despite his past and everything that's happening in his life, he is hopeful that things can change and that he himself will do everything he can to better himself. Céline then sings to him in That's The Way It Is, acknowledging his suffering and all the pain he is going through, but tells him that it will get better ("I can read your mind and I know your story, I see what you're going through, It's an uphill climb, and I'm feeling sorry, But I know it will come to you"). Throughout the song, she tells him to not give up and that the good will come to those who believe in it, even when it feels hopeless. The song focuses more on finding love, but it can also be about any hardship.

INVISIBILITY - MADONNA + FREDDIE MERCURY

"PATH TO BE FREED"

Tracklist

1. I Want to Break Free

2. Don't Tell Me

3. I Want It All

4. Human Nature

 

Explanation

A sonically diverse but thematically cohesive 4-track EP, "PATH TO BE FREED" develops a story of independece through four stages or perspectives.

 

I Want to Break Free has the narrator describe the wish to separate himself from the restraint of a relationship with no love. In fact, through the song Freddie reassures himself that, even though he'll be lonely without his partner by his side, he must make it living on his own. In his reflection of independence, we can still see a bit of doubt.

 

For its view of independence, Don't Tell Me uses a range of phenomena such as rain, the sun and wind to compare her unstoppable convictions in life. Whether it's in the way she loves or fighting to have her vice heard, Madonna will unabashedly be herself and won't hear what others have to say to belittle her.

 

Ambitious is the best way to describe Freddie's sense of independence through I Want It All. In this anthemic rock number, he comes across as someone who doesn't compromise with people or responsibility, instead focusing only on his desires: mainly seeking the thrill of adventure while his youth lasts- it's careless as it's supposed to be.

 

Finally, Human Nature looks back on the consequences of being free in the way Madge handles her public persona. She knows expressing her sexuality in an independent manner and having the male gaze less on her mind than ever while doing so, didn't sit well with 90s society. However, she's really not sorry about it, and tells her obsessed critics to deal with their own ****, words she still lives by to date.

Our First Time: "Just go with it, go with it, go with it / And I will go really slow with it, slow with it / It's out first time" This song talks about Bruno's first time having sex with the girl that he's having sex with. He sings this song with a very relaxed and sexual tone. The song is pretty straight forward with Bruno comforting the girl to relax and for her to enjoy her first sexual experience with him.

 

Versace on the Floor: "So baby, let's turn down the lights and close the door / Oooh I love that dress / But you won't need it anymore" In this song, Bruno has a very romantic moment with a woman that has a Versace dress on. While having a very romantic night with this woman, Bruno tells her that she doesn't need to keep her dress on because they're gonna "kiss until they're naked". Just like OFT, this song is mostly having sex in a very soft and romantic way.

 

Rocket: "Punish me please / Daddy, what you gon' do with all this ass / All up in your face? / Yeah, hell yeah, ride me so deep" Beyonce sings this song in a very sexual voice that could turn honestly anybody on. While this song is just as sexual as Bruno's songs, it brings a new side of sex to the table. WOFT and VOTF are more relaxed and soft while Rocket has lyrics that are much more rough such as wanting her partner to "drown" her in pleasure until she screams for air to breathe.

 

Partition: "Handprints and good grips all on my ass / Private show with the music blasting / He like to call me Peaches when we get this nasty" In this song, Beyonce also brings sex to a new level. Beyonce is singing about her and her husband having sex in a limo in a very seductive way. The quote from above shows us that they're being very kinky with the roleplay of Peaches, a popular stripper, and the spanking that is going on. 

 

tl;dr: Bruno's two songs show a much more vanilla way of having sex while Bey's songs show the type of sex that is much more kinky and rough. Either way, both Bruno and Bey show different ways of having sex while still being completely intimate and romantic with their partners.

  Hide contents

Pitchfork: T.A.B.S is a musically cohesive experience that sees both Miss Guðmundsdóttir and a no longer dead Bowie lash out their inner anger through timeless industrial beats that don't make for an easy listening but rather a rewarding one. 9/10 (Not 10 cause they're snobs)

 

The Independent: This short but intense ride opens with the UK top 10 hit, Army of Me, a track where Björk gives the listener a warning, get it together and don't you dare complain once more! 5/5

 

Rolling Stone: While the It's Oh So Quiet songstress is more direct about her feelings of anger, Bowie offers a more ambiguous approach to the topic. The lyrics of Spaceboy might be nonsensical for some but it's the dark and heavy instrumental that makes this another headbanging anthem for irritated people. 4.5/5

 

The New York Times: The Björk of Pluto is Björk as she's intended to sound. She very skillfully vacillates between a range of tones; she's nasally, then guttural, then grainy, then delicate. (And yes, that's how she's supposed to do it.) She's angry. She's hostile. She sounds slightly insane. Probably the peak of the EP where she just snaps in order to be 'brand new tomorrow'. 10/10

 

Slant Magazine: In an EP where both artists invite us to see different sides to a feeling as strong and complex as anger, the most reflective moment of the record comes with the last song. Musically the track differs from the rest of the project but it works as an epilogue where Bowie 'looks back in anger' at his past self as he's waiting to be taken away... 5/5
