“Lights Out” Official Music Video
New Album “Closet Leftovers” Coming out September 28th!
“Lights Out” and three other singles from upcoming LP are now available to listen and download on all major stores!!–>http://smarturl.it/LightsOut-Single
“I had this idea of me standing in the hallway of my apartment and doing slow motion video combined with one of those instagram face filters. I sped up the song and sang along with the sped up version, so I can slow it down later on. As for the Instagram star filter, I recorded the sped up version of it on a monitor screen. After that, I combined the two videos and connected the instagram clips since you are only allowed to film 15 second. At the end, the blood symbolizes the shots that were shooting at me every time the crash cymbal was hit.”

Lyrics:
Remember how
We used to jump the shades
Such a joy
In the gravity play
Yes I know
It may sound the same
But each of one
Is different face
On the mountain top
Cause you know the place
I’ll meet you up
But we can rearrange
Yes I know
It may sound the same
But each of one
Is different face
Lights out may help
Cause lights out are the best
With you
Third Single “Rudy”
“Rudy” and two other singles from upcoming album called “Closet Leftovers” are now available to listen and download on all major stores!! –> http://hyperurl.co/RudySingle
“Rudy” was written about 6 years ago and was inspired by a girl I met once. I had chords and a melody written beforehand and the words came quickly to me. This girl had shown me how she rolls her cigarettes, which was inspiration for the lyrics “And if I go ; Roll one for me; Cigarettes you used to smoke; Hope you will quit”. Although some of the lyrics were based on real scenarios, the whole idea of the song is more of an imagination. I took some of the details of this brief non-intimate meeting and created a story. –> Press Release
Lyrics:
Oh Rudy in your eyes
Oh Rudy in your heart
Oh Rudy in you mind
Stay always on my side
And if I go
Roll one for me
Cigarettes you used to smoke
Hope you will quit
And if I die
Bury me so deep under all our lies
Hope you will quit
Oh Rudy talk to me
With your fluent Japanese
Oh Rudy in your mind
Stay always on my side
And if I go
Roll one for me
Cigarettes you used to smoke
Hope you will quit
And if I die
Bury me so deep under all our lies
Hope you will quit
