So I just got to listen to Uncanny by Ghost and Pals, and my god I can't describe how much I love it into words! Like I can try, but it won't get the whole meaning across, this is so good. But since I have a bit of free time now and no reason not to gush about it, now I will make it your problem too, mwahahaha! >:3
So, this wonderful brain-stealer of a song starts with an eerie choir of voices, and that's already a great way to catch my attention lol. But then it adds the staccato beat and the background whirring and the deeper beat and I'm already jamming out before the lyrics have even started! And I apparently really love Kevin's voice cause when the lyrics do start, they get me to jam even harder cause I love how the voice mixes so well with the rest of music! (Plus I can sing the notes so that's an extra point in its favor!)
Then it hits that "Visions intangible" line, and I just have to groove to it! I love how it oozes across the beat, like it's not restrained to a set part of the beat but it stretches across it like a lounging, lazy cat. And the rest of the lyrics do the same! Like the pauses between words and the stretched out words all make it impossible to not shimmy and sing to! It's like a nice break from the sharp head-bob-worthy beat of the lyrics.
And then as if the whole song wasn't a jam from the beginning, the first chorus just elevates that! The background spins with high-pitched whirring and a desperate chorus and loud beat and the whole song rises with the lyrics "Hold my hands even if I cry" and it just sounds like a mess of chaos and desperation and pain! When I first heard that part, my face scrunched up and I thought MMMM that's GOOD! And now I just bop my head so hard that my glasses come off and stomp my foot to the beat.
Then it all goes back to the verses, but the beat's still super groovy! And the lyrics are slightly changed (character lore)! But the beat leaves the regular 2-4 parts and stutters and goes to the 1-3 parts as it builds back toward the next chorus! You can't just tune out of the second verse cause it's just like the first beat-wise, it snatches your attention with those staccato beats and grips your brain and doesn't let go! And I love it SO. MUCH.
And my favorite part when I first listened to it was later in the song when the lyrics for the chorus overlapped with "BACKED AGAINST A WALL" (literally said like that, like screaming and unsettling and demanding all at once)! And like I'd already been grooving since the first chorus, but then I started really getting into it and I realized that this is a frickin good song! And now whenever I listen to that part, I turn the music up all the way and just jam! I LOVE the "BACKED AGAINST A WALL" part, it just REEKS of helplessness and anger and desperation and tears and it SCREAMS over the other lyrics and it makes me wanna cry gosh I love it. And THEN the main chorus shifts from "Hold my hand even if I cry" to "go away even if I cry!" If this is a well established character with well established lore then I'm not aware but as someone just popping their head into this, I just love the change! I dunno if it screams of stronger insecurities or fear or something else or what but it scratches my brain in a good way!
In fact, this whole song scratches my brain in a nice way, from the bass and the whole beat to the delivery of the lyrics and the high-pitched wailing and the chorus in the background!! And that's not even counting the actual words or the words' meaning or the beautiful art!! Just the music is so fun to dance to and scream to and jam to on so many levels! Even now I'm listening to this at full volume in ear buds as I'm writing this (and I normally can't put my thoughts about a song together while I'm listening to it. This is very much an exception somehow)! It makes me want to squish myself into a corner and bang my fists on the ground to the beat!! Like the best way to describe my love for this song is yelling and stomping and crying and I KNOW this is gonna be a song stuck in my head for weeks like Reckless Battery Burns, I am PREPARED. I love this so much and this has already made my day!! So now I hope I've made your day a lil better by introducing you to this song too!
