May 2009: Nobodylovers
Track #2: Nobodylovers. Features the R. Kelly of Meilahti, R. Kärkkäinen on his rap debut. Not the most typical Viola-track again, but we really do like this one.
This track started out sounding like Viola trying to cover Hey Ya by Outkast. As a few times before, the initial punch of creativity was fueled by a cool Microkorg-preset that just felt kinda right. After dialing in the initial beat, everything just pretty much fell into place piece by piece.
I have no clue where the lyrics came from. Riku is always a mystery to me in that department. Seriously, a couple of lovers that met at a fairground, died and continue to reunite annually at the fairground...Where do these things come from? Kudos for using phrases like "coconut shy" and "goldfish prize" in a contemporary pop lyric, though.
But if you feel this is an awkward direction for us to take, you can take comfort in the fact that next month will be something completely different again!
If you love or hate the track, please leave some comments. We'd really love to know what you think of it. Thanks!

Hieno biisi... Itse asiassa
Hieno biisi... Itse asiassa oli liiankin hieno, kun tätä kuuntelin autoa ajaessani - ja menetin seurauksena ajokorttini... :-/
Mutta teidän musiikki on kyllä joka tapauksessa hienonkuuloista, konesoundit toimii upeasti!

Uh... Vaarallista homma tuo
Uh... Vaarallista homma tuo menomusan kuuntelu tien päällä. Vauhtisokeutta Violasta.
Kivaa, että musa kelpaa, mutta jatkossa rajoitusten puitteissa!
Kommenttini tulee hieman
Kommenttini tulee hieman myöhään, mutta mikäs siinä. Tämän on pakko olla yksi Violan parhaista kappaleista - samaan aikaan haikea, mutta toisaalta nipistää jännästi vatsasta ja pistää tanssijalan vipattamaan.
Kiitoksia todella paljon
Kiitoksia todella paljon tästä kommentista! Juuri tuohon kombinaatioon tässä pyritään lähes aina!
I really love your songs.
I really love your songs. I've discovered your works through the Free Music Charts of this month. Should I mention I voted for you? Really awesome and I hope you'll make it the 6 months in the charts.
I'm just wondering why you are not on jamendo as well, maybe more people could discover your fantastic songs.
Hope to see you there soon!
Thanks a lot! Really happy to
Thanks a lot! Really happy to hear you like our stuff!
The reason we're not on Jamendo is that we didn't know about it until now, so maybe we'll be on there soon...
Mahtava biisi! Kuulin just
Mahtava biisi! Kuulin just radiosta (YleX) ja tulin sitten tänne sitä katteleen. :D
Puhelauluosuudet kuulostavat
Puhelauluosuudet kuulostavat Pet Shop Boysilta, hienoa. Näitä PSB-vertauksia satelee varmaan aina, mutta kyseessähän on ehkä maailman paras popyhtye.
Erittäin hyvä biisi muutenkin.
Now this is a cool tune! It
Now this is a cool tune! It somehow seems to have a strange Tearcandy/ACSU-ish feel. And this one is instantly catchy.
i love it. RAKASTAN ! it's
i love it. RAKASTAN ! it's going straight to my viola favourites of all time. i'm in a bit of a silly mood, but really fellas: beautiful as ever. tear-jerking, one might say.

Aika varovaisesti
Aika varovaisesti hiphopahtavaa tosiaan, jos yhtään. Mut eiks "pop is going to hiphop"? Musatyylit sekoittuu, uusiin tyyleihin on tullut hoppia mukaan enemmän ja vähemmän..

Ok, here's the lyrics. (Tommi can put them somewhere else if that's needed..)
Thanks for all the comments!
NOBODYLOVERS
the endless glimmer of the fairground world
where the time unfurls as the machines twirl
a goldfish prize for the candy floss smiles
the festive spirits are on the rise
aloof, he moves through the crowd like sleepwalking
invisible and light as air
she's lonesome like a drizzle in springtime
looking for a place for nobodylovers
nobodylovers
nobodylovers
other lovers play a little coconut shy
soon merry goes round in the thrill of the ride
and it's all so fun and they're all so fair
and get to carry home those giant cuddly bears
somehow only he sees her, only she him
they exist just for today
funhouse mirrors twist the world around them
people turn to look but see nobody
...lovers
nobodylovers
nobodylovers
emerging from the unknown
nobodylovers
if you feel them you're not alone
nobodylovers
because it's been years since she passed away
and soon after he went the same way
but here every year they relive again
the day they met - their happiest day
nobodylovers
nobodylovers
they exist just for today
invisible and light as air
if you feel them you're not alone
if you feel them you're not alone
bodies are gone but lovers live on
invisible and light as air
bodies are gone but lovers live on
if you feel them you're not alone
bodies are gone but lovers live on
Seriously, one of my
Seriously, one of my favourites! Way to go guys!!
Hyvää stuffia Viola!

Hieno biisi, tunnelma on
Hieno biisi, tunnelma on loistava, ja kuten Hendrik jo sanoikin, kappale kuulostaa ihan teiltä. Komppaan muita jotka haluavat tekstit luettavaksi jonnekin. :O
Ihan ältsin hyvä biisi!
Ihan ältsin hyvä biisi! Outsider code-meininkiä, toimii, helisee ja kilisee ja tanssittaa ja on ihanan melankolinen. Pojat te teitte sen taas! ^_^
hi guys! well, this is the
hi guys!
well, this is the first time I write to you, but I've liked your music so much since 2007 or something like that (:, I love your style and this song is really brillant, I like it, so keep up the good work!

Why should this be an awkward
Why should this be an awkward direction for you to take? Seriously, it's a cool song (again), with a very violaish atmosphere and a nice hookline. Listening to the song for the first time, I didn't even feel a connection to the way you desctribed it. Stay experimental, guys, it's refreshing that your scale gets wider all the time, little by little.
Then I actually have a question since you explicitely mentioned the lyrics,Tommi: Will you make the lyrics of those new songs available somewhere? You know that I have always appreciated Riku's cryptic and dreamy stuff! But anyway: Thumbs up for "Nobodylovers"!
First impressions: This one's
First impressions: This one's really, REALLY good!
