Lyrics of Sierra Levesque – GET OFF MY STAGE
Black painted tongue and bleach blonde hair
Your songs all sound the same (I’m bored)
Can’t even play guitar, don’t have a voice
Best rock album, well god that’s lame (Ugh)
Playing Tommy Lee in a movie
Is as close as you’ll ever be
Rap devil may be what you are
You’ll never be a real rockstar (You won’t)
All you are is a rapper behind a guitar
I’m gonna be, gonna be one of the greats
I’m half your age, half your age
Get off my stage
You wannabe, wanna be a natural like me
Cause the rock n roll queen is what I’m gonna be
Please go back to your rapping days
Cause I’m the one who really plays
Without shady giving you fame
No one would even know your name
Hey, look at me, I’ll do the same
I’ll use you as my own clickbait (Watch me)
You’re always with that b-list star
I’m sure she loves your fancy cars
What was her name, can’t remember
She’d rather be with McGregor (You know it)
All you are is a rapper behind a guitar
I’m gonna be, gonna be one of the greats
I’m half your age, half your age
Get off my stage
You wannabe, wanna be a natural like me
Cause the rock n roll queen is what I’m gonna be
Please go back to your rapping days
Cause I’m the one who really plays
All you are is a rapper behind a guitar
I’m gonna be, gonna be one of the greats
I’m half your age, half your age
Get off my stage
You wannabe, wanna be a natural like me
Cause the rock n roll queen is what I’m gonna be
Please go back to your rapping days
Cause I’m the one who really plays
You’ll never be like Ozzy, Axl, Corey, or Mercury
They didn’t need no autotune
To come up with a decent tune (You do)
Travis Barker with you on stage
All that does is prove your old age
Blink 1-8-who, they won’t help you
Soon you’ll be washed up like them too (Sorry)
All you are is a rapper behind a guitar
I’m gonna be, gonna be one of the greats
I’m half your age, half your age
Get off my stage
You wannabe, wanna be a natural like me
Cause the rock n roll queen is what I’m gonna be
Please go back to your rapping days
Please go back to your rapping days
Please go back to your rapping days
Cause I’m the one who really plays
Just like Eminem said
I sing better, play guitar better,
I play drums better, I write songs better
I rock better, I dress better, I act better
Mmm, you rap better (hahaha)

Mundane World – SoundThing
“Με μια σκληρότητα αλλά και με μια επιθετική απόγνωση τα φωνητικά εκφράζουν τα συναισθήματα μας και μας κάνουν να ανατριχιάζουμε από τις δυνατότητες τους. Η εκπληκτική μελωδία βρίσκεται σε μια ανήσυχη μάχη μεταφέροντας μας όλη τη δυναμική της ενέργεια. Η ένταση του ρυθμού κάνει τις αισθήσεις μας να βρίσκονται σε ένα παθιασμένο ντελίριο.”

Dress Blues – Jessie G
“Οι νότες της κιθάρας και η μελωδία θυμίζουν κάποιες όμορφες ανατολές που ο ήλιος λάμπει δυνατά για να διώξει τη θλίψη μου. Τα μοναδικά φωνητικά με την καθαρή χροιά τους και την έκταση τους χαϊδεύουν τα αφτιά μου. Το πάθος τους και μου δίνει κουράγιο να συνεχίσω .Ο ρυθμός με τις εναλλαγές του βάζει τα συναισθήματα μου σε σειρά και με βοηθά να τα ερμηνεύσω.”

Lyrics of Jessie G – Dress Blues
(Verse)
Sun shining through the trees the leaves all gone
The days stopped short and the nights grew long
We were young, having fun with nothing to loose
When he signed 3 years in combat boots
(Verse)
I never knew hanging on could mean letting him go
You don’t have a say when the war we says so
We rushed down to the courthouse and said I do
A white secondhand dress and your dress blues
(Chorus)
Oh I wanna lay you down
Stay by your side till we’re homeward bound
I’ve never felt the way I do
Seeing you there in your dress blues
(Verse)
The letters took weeks that felt like years
And their hard to read through lonesome tears
A man came knocking and I swore it was you
He broke my heart in his dress blues
(Chorus)
Oh I will lay you down
Lay by your side when I’m homeward bound
I’ve never felt the way I do
Seeing you there in your dress blues
(Verse)
Sun glaring through the trees the leaves all gone
The sound of guns and a bugle song
One head stone on a plot for two
A long black dress and your dress blues
(Chorus)
Oh I will lay you down
Lay by your side when I’m homeward bound
I’ve never felt the way I do
Seeing you there in your dress blues

The song came unexpectedly in the middle of the night, with the melody and lyrics playing persistently in mind. Determined not to let it slip away, it was written down and completed in under an hour. Inspired by the profound significance of the military uniform “Dress Blues,” the song became a heartfelt tribute to the troops, the country, and those who have sacrificed for freedom.
The process of bringing it to life in the studio was deeply emotional, and shortly after, a veteran friend created the perfect cover art, as if everything aligned at the right time. This song is meant to offer light and healing to those grieving the loss of a service member and has already been met with overwhelming love and support.

I Ain’t Got No Home – Yellofox
“Η ξεχωριστή και μυστηριακή μελωδία τραβάει την προσοχή από την πρώτη στιγμή και μας γοητεύει. Τα φωνητικά με την υπέροχη και ιδιαίτερη χροιά τους μας αγγίζουν διακριτικά και μας ταξιδεύουν σε μέρη που δεν έχουμε ξαναδεί. Ο ρυθμός ήσυχα και νωχελικά μας μεταφέρει σε μια κατάσταση ηρεμίας και εσωτερικής αναζήτησης.”

Lyrics of Yellofox – I Ain’t Got No Home
I ain’t got no home in the world anymore
Oh my Lord, where the hell am I going?
Well, I’m driving around like a wolf on the run
They chase me down, they’re closing the doors
And I ain’t got no home in the world anymore
And slowly I turn into this guy I don’t know
Who’s got no heart and who’s got no soul
And could you please help me to find my goal
‘Cause I ain’t got no home in the world anymore
And I don’t need your sorry, I don’t need your hand
Just look at me now, I will take my stand!
Nowhere to run and nowhere to go
‘Cause I ain’t got no home in the world anymore

If You Let Me – THISISSHEBA x Cam Be x Neak
“Ωραία φωνητικά που επιβάλλονται και κυριαρχούν στο κομμάτι, ξεδιπλώνοντας με επιτυχία τις ικανότητες τους Ο ανήσυχος ρυθμός ανεβάζει την αδρεναλίνη και κρατά το ενδιαφέρον σου αμείωτο από την αρχή έως το τέλος. Η όμορφη μελωδία κινείται σε χαμηλούς τόνους κρατώντας έτσι μια τέλεια ισορροπία και αρμονία στο κομμάτι.”
