HELLO YES I AM HERE WHAT IS UP? I AM DOWN FOR THIS THREAD.
Radio. What a tune. I did a whole paragraph on it in a different thread not sure if I should repost though?
I love the jazz cafe performance, but like sitar The Scala Club one has a special place in my heart so i'm gonna link that too
I like how she sometimes goes a little high on the "i finally found you" when she sings it live, it's such a sweet little touch.
Also something I've noticed is lyric changes through live performances. The BtD line is "baby love me cause i'm playing on the radio" but in live performances she tends to change it to "(my) baby loves me cause i'm playing on the radio." It's subtle but I think about it a lot. In the BtD version it kind of implies she's asking to be loved because she's finally famous, it's a little bit of a tease too. However the latter suggests she's only loved because of her fame which is a completely different emotion. I dunno why she does it or if there's any reason to it, but I find it interesting none the less.
Let's talk about the demo though. (i'd link that too but the youtube version is pitched up horribly, what's a girl to do?)
It has such a full sound to it and while i love the almost isolated sound her vocals have in the BtD version, the vocal layering all throughout this version are superb. This is like slow, sad electropop that i'd dance to in a club at 6am while the sun is about to rise and that just sounds sooo cooool. What I love about this demo generally is that in its most pure form it's a pop song, but for me at least, there's this real understated sadness to it, you know? Tbh I think this song would've done well on Paradise, thematically () at least. All these illusions to death, being reborn and paradise.
in conclusions, i like sad things that I get to overanalyse.
