MØ – Waste of Time

Karen Marie Ørsted was born in 1988. It's impossible to not pay attention to her electro-indie-pop music. She has those super psycho vibes and her name will definitely buzz in the future. She is coming from Denmark and she is better known as "". Her song "Waste of Time" talks about the loss of one love and how she eventually wasted her time for some broken vows. The music video had some weird effects so I decided to post the audio edition with insane montage. You can read the lyrics and watch this video here.

 
 
MØ – Waste of Time
 
Snow fall some how it doesn't melt boy when it hits you, why?
All this life I've been drowned by confusion.
What you want is slowly losing one love.
You say you don't know you were gonna
Break my heart on the winter night.

It's that what you want is
Say the words and I'll be gone now.
Show you I was gonna lose you to the blue.

Where is the love we had? love we had?
Where is the love we had?
Oh what a waste of time.

Why does it hurt so bad? Hurt so bad
Why do you always make me cry?
Oh what a waste of time.

You said I was your beat, what the fuck!
Oh what a waste of time
Now I am just your Bitch, what the fuck!
Oh oh oh
Oh what a waste of time
Oh oh oh

Why this storm how walking on the glass of your broken vows?
Well what I say we're a straight fooled by youth ok

What you wanted is slowly losing one love
I told you you were gonna take a run on a winter night.
Is that really what you wanted?
Say the words say the words
i' d  told you i was gonna losing you to what is cruel

Where is the love we had? the love we had?
Where is the love we had?
Oh what a waste of time.

Why does it hurt so bad? Hurt so bad
Why do you always make me cry?
Oh what a waste of time.

Where is the love we had? the love we had?
Why do you always make me cry?
Oh what a waste of time.

You said I was your beat what the fuck!
Save it for the girl you like.
Oh what a waste of time
Now I am just your bitch. What the fuck!
Oh what a waste of time.

London Grammar-Wasting My Young Years


Today's entry can't be any other than "London Grammar". The trio from England is a mix of Daughter and Florence + The Machine with classical, ethereal vocals by Hannah Reid, the lead singer and writer of songs! Their songs have something from fairytale and dark horror films. Questions like "Maybe I'm wasting my young years?" can put you into deep deep thoughts about your life, about your past and future... Here you can see the mysterious music video of "Wasting My Young Years" and read the lyrics.



 London Grammar-Wasting My Young Years

You crossed this line
Do you find it hard to sit with me tonight?
I've walked these miles but I've walked 'em straight lined
You'll never know what was like to be fine

I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter

Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years



Don't you know that it's only fear
I wouldn't worry, you have all your life
I've heard it takes some time to get it right

I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter

Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years

I don't know what you are
Don't leave me hanging on
Don't know what you are
Don't leave me hanging on

Foals-Olympic Airways

We all need to feel some pride for a while. Especially the Greeks.  Some of you may know the Foals, but did you know that the former and lead singer is coming from Greece? 
Yannis Philippakis, Jack Bevan, Jimmy Smith, Walter Gervers and Edwin Congreave are the members of the most interesting indie-rock, British punk band that I've discovered lately. Insane melody lines and lyrics too. I couldn't choose any other song than "Olympic Airways". You know why, because we love and support Greece. Read the lyrics and watch the crazy music video here.





Foals-Olympic Airways

 Sun up, we wait all day
Sun's up, we wait all day, all day
While the hell outside is kept away
If only we could move away from here
This is how we build a place
An aviary for today
An aviary for today
Let's disappear till tomorrow
Let's disappear till tomorrow
Disappear
Disappear
Disappear

Blow up these plane parades, let's go
To an aviary far from home
To an aviary far from home
A one hand clap is me and you, and you, and you
While the hell outside is kept away
If only we'd moved away
Disappear
Disappear
Disappear

Last vacation was the same
We could move away
Last vacation was the same
We could move away
Last vacation was the same
(The same)

Sun down now
We have built our place
An aviary
Forever
An aviary
Forever
Forever
Forever

Reappear, oh
Reappear, oh
Reappear, oh
Reappear, oh

Chet Faker-I'm Into You


This man with the beard is named Nicholas James Murphy but the fans know him as "Chet Faker". He comes from Australia, Melbourne and his music is called "Future Beat, Electronica, Down-tempo, Soul, Sex". The best example of his music is his track from his album "Thinking in Textures", "I'm Into You". You can read the lyrics and watch the music video of this song here. Get ready for chilling and hypnotism...




Chet Faker-I'm Into You
 
I gotta feeling we are gonna win
our bodies make it perfect
and your eyes can make me swim

then again everything seems new
I can barely hold my tongue
to say the least I'm into you

and our eyes
are saying more than we can talk and warmer than our bedroom sport
and your thighs are kisses from the outside, girl thats all i need

I'll take you down the other road
to breathe in something more

I'll find it harder to ignore
the things I want you for


I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododododo dododododo dodo

the rhythm was all
I needed to hear
a woman can treat my heart
dododododo dododododo dodo

when I press an ear up to your breast
I can hear the rhythm start
it's hard to tell our beats apart

so I hope your listening right now
cause I can barely hold my tongue
the shit we do could warm the sun

at night
twisted in a melting fall and sleeping with the scratching claws
and your words
let me know your feeling me and seeing all the things I see

I'll take it down the other road
to breathe in something more

I'll find it harder to ignore
the things I want you for

I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododododo dododododo dodo

the rhythm was all
I needed to hear
a woman can treat my heart
dododododo dododododo dodo

I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododododo dododododo dodo

the rhythm was all
I needed to hear
a woman can treat my heart
dododododo dododododo dodo

Ben Harper-Waiting For You

If you need a person who plays all kind of music with his own mark still there. Then you will find then in Ben Harper. He was born in 1969 in California. He plays an electric mix of blues, rock, folk, reggae, soul, r'n'b, pop, traditional. "Waiting For You" is one of my older discoveries, but you know when you listen to music all day long, you have those illuminations that lead you to post beautiful songs like this one. Here you can watch the live performance of "Waiting For you" and feel all the passion coming out from Ben Harper.





Ben Harper-Waiting For You
I've been waiting for you
Never found anything else to do
But waiting for you

I've been calling your name
Never found anything else the same
Nothing's the same

I keep hearing your name
Nothing else sounds the same
As hearing your name

I've been hoping for you
What else can I do
But keep hoping for you

You can kill a lot of time
If you really put your mind to it
Or leave it all behind
And never go through it

What else can I do

Keep waiting for you

Deep Time-Clouds

Adifer Joneseslas and Jadam Mooroney -as written on Facebook Page- are the people behind the Deep Time band. They are coming from Texas with a "Minimal Weirdo Pop" style and by minimal they mean to get the maximum with the minimum means. They play many instruments and that's why they can leave you speechless when you see them performing live. They used to be three and formed under "Yellow Fever" band but after they lost the third one they decided to start over. Here is the music video for "Clouds" and you can read the lyrics too.



Deep Time-Clouds
clouds will make you look up
poking on your way
you got bigger while i was away
you don't look good on paper
i'm asking you to wait
you got thinner waiting for a change

don't talk about it
don't you know
things [like] forever
you got bigger while i was away

can't you see you had it made
who can guess your thoughts anyway, now
guarantee you had it made

you know that i'm a taker
found it out today
?? papers never been afraid
doubts will leave you bankrupt
caught you stealing change
i know your language
thought you ran away

it's all right it's all right if you've had it all
it's all right it's all right if you've had enough
it's all right it's all right if you've had it all
it's all right it's all right if you've had enough

what happened to the things you left alone?
they gathered in the trees and filled the whole sky
what happened to the things you left undone?
you feel much better
they gathered in the sea and now they're all mine
you feel normal now look at how
what happened to the things you left alone?
you see much better
they gathered in the trees and filled the whole sky
you see no no now listen how
what mattered were the things you left alone
you hear much better
they gathered in the sea and now they're all mine-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
you hear no no now listen now ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

clouds will make you look up
[broken] on your way
you got bigger while i was away
that don't look good on paper
i'm asking you to stay
a [cooling] stranger never been afraid

don't talk about it
don't you know
things [like] forever
you got bigger while i was away

it's all right it's all right if you've had it all
it's all right it's all right if you've had enough
it's all right it's all right if you've had it all
it's all right it's all right if you've had enough

can't you see you had it made
who can guess your heart anyway now
guarantee you had it made

clouds will make you look up
[broken] on your way
you got bigger while i was away

The Mynabirds-Numbers Don't Lie

This indie-rock band comes from America. Laura was the main member and then she formed the rest of the band "The Mynabirds". Already, they have released two albums and they are both lovely! Their music have been described as "openhearted, politically engaged, feminist pop that, miraculously, never veers into schmaltz." by Pitchfork Media. "Numbers Don't Lie" is a song possibly about war, even though its melody and music are sweet and happy! Read the lyrics and watch the music video of "Numbers Don't Lie" here.



The Mynabirds-Numbers Don't Lie
It was always what you said 
It would be, and nothing more
Through the smoke screens and the pipe dreams
And the blood on the floor

You say it's black, well it's bound to be black.
You made up your mind, and you see with that.

Baby, if you wanna be right
I will let you be right,
I will let you be right.
You know that the numbers don't lie,
Oh no, the numbers don't lie;
Two wrongs will not make it right.

You said, "One and one and one and one is three."
But I know my lines and my graphs and my math-
Honey, that ain't me.

If you want it, you can have it-
All the lines on the cellar floor.
Don't mean nothing, just a bad dream-
Even if you think it's more.

You say it's black, well it's bound to be black.
You made up your mind, and you see with that.

Baby, if you wanna be right
I will let you be right,
I will let you be right.
You know that the numbers don't lie,
Oh no, the numbers don't lie;
Two wrongs will not make it right.

Lissie - Everywhere I Go

Her name is Lissie and she comes from California. She started to play music since she was a little girl! Now she is 30 years old and her dream bacame true! Touring with big names, having a solid audience base and being a specialist in country-folk music. Her albums met the great success and today we are here to present an oldie. "Everywhere I go" is a song about an angel. We all have one after all. Here you can watch the music video of it and read the lyrics too. 




Everywhere I Go
And I'll fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me all that I should know

And I'll fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to be
To evoke some empathy

Danger will follow me
Everywhere I go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well this tired mind just wants to be led home

And I'll fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to see
Show me all that I could be

And I'll fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me why I feel so low

Danger will follow me
Everywhere I go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well these tired eyes just want to remain closed

I don't see clearly
Can't feel nothing
Can you hear me

And I'll fall on my knees

And danger will follow me now everywhere I go
Angels will call on me and take me to my home

And danger will follow me now everywhere I go
Angels will call on me and take me to my home

And danger will follow me now everywhere I go
Angels will call on me and take me to my home

And danger will follow me now everywhere I go
Angels will call on me and take me to my home
