The bullet stood in the crowd while I performed with a soul cover band in a dungeon in Koblenz called The Circus Maximus. The bullet wasn't impressed.

Re: Cydoni-Gibberia - We Plants Are Happy Plants

.: NSC LXI :.
~ We Plants Are Happy Plants ~
= :hu: = Four On The Floor = :hu: =






Another electro act will be representing Cydoni-Gibberia this edition. We Plants Are Happy Plants (project of Hungarian Peter Bergmann, created in 2006) will be flying the flag with this heavy electro song, "Four On The Floor", featuring a small amount of vocals but is mostly instrumental. Hope you like!

Re: Cydoni-Gibberia - We Plants Are Happy Plants

The Cydu entry for Congrats was a pretty straightforward fight between the two lengthy epic-sounding songs that we sent this decade. RAM and Fear Of Tigers were both amazing entries and will go down as two of our favourite all time entries but since RAM was the only Cydu finalist in this decade it seemed only reasonable that the latter should get another shot..


~ FEAR OF TIGERS ~


However let it not be said we aren't proud of this decade. Despite the poor success rate with our best result being 27th in the final, we are still proud of the variety of this decade. We had the only 3-time Cydu entrant back, heavy vocal trance, shoegazing folky-type stuff, instrumental trance, electro-alternative rap that you shalt always listen to, some random guy pouring water into a bath (no idea who it could be), a particularly voter-heavy NF resulting in a certain Irish band, this song, all the fun of the fair and evil clowns. Here's hoping the next decade will be as good

Ninja skillz were useful as usually, but the key to the codebreaking was a device our engineers ivented, called "awesomeness detector". It works like a compass, but instead of pointing out the north pole, the nail guides to awesome songs. It showed me a way to your entry.

And btw, i prefer this video:

Re: Cydoni-Gibberia - Rawrrrrr

I decided, for the first time in Cygo's near 3 year history, that I will change my entry to one that I have suddenly fell in love with (and I hope the change is accepted). Everything Everything will get their much deserved 3rd chance in NSC 63 :mrgreen:

NSC 62
Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs
Household Goods





Having only discovered this song two days ago (and it only being uploaded to YouTube a week or so before) it is very rare that such a song would grow on me this quickly. But Orlando Dinosaur, son of a music professor at Oxford University (probably not Professor Dinosaur), hath shown me the error of my ways with this 3-minute burst of electro and repetitive nonsensical lyrics. Oh, and he has a rather quirky band name too but that's par for the course with Cygo nowadays (meheh). This is very likely to fare even worse than my first choice but I don't really care anymore :mrgreen:

Lyrics:
Everywhere I look, I just see you on your own
All that it took was one call from his phone
Forgive me if I’m wrong, but you look sh*t, all alone
So give me a shot ‘cause I could be the dog to your bone, or something

Even after all, all the bad things that you’ve shown
We should be together sharing this love in my home
I know I’m not wrong, you still look sh*t all alone
So give me a shot ‘cause I could be…

Everywhere I look, I just see you on your own
All that it took was one call from his phone

Re: Cydoni-Gibberia - Rawrrrrr

Right, here we go again:

NSC 63
Everything Everything
MY KZ, UR BF
(My Keys, Your Boyfriend)





Everything Everything are an amazingly cool British art rock band who have previously, and unsuccessfully, tried to represent Cydoni-Gibberia way back when we prequalified for the only time, in NSC 39. Unfortunately, they finished last in the NF with "Photoshop Handsome". They were all ready to go to Xorientia last time before the shiny sparkling new T.E.E.D. jumped in. They're back for revenge now with "MY KZ, UR BF" which is totally awesome. Seriously.

Lucifer you're landing
Cross-hairs on the kitchen sink
Barb-wire in the bathroom
I can't make new memories since

Flashbacks to the time
this shell-shocked apartment was the place
i met with your boy
it's a mortal thing, yeah it's a mortal thing
oh! he looked at me funny and a
oh! oh! think our secret's out and a
oh-ooh-oh i try to explain
but then munitions rain, and we're the epicentre

It's like I'm watching the A4 paper taking over the guillotine,
It's like I'm watching the A4 paper taking over the guillotine

And I wanna know what happened to your boyfriend
Cos he was looking at me like "woah..!"
Yeah right before the kitchen was a dustbowl
And tossing me the keys and I can't forget how
everything just coming through the windows
and half the street was under my nails
it's like we sitting in the Faraday cage,
when the lights all failed

i fly through the walls
all pieces colliding and i
see raymond apart
he'a a frowning now, wagging a finger at me
"boy!" his knees bend the other way and
"boy! boy!" are you guys together honey?
"b..b..boy!" oh but now i can't find his torso, mmhmmhmm i guess you're seperated ooh,
Monica i just wanna know...ooh

It's like I'm watching the A4 paper taking over the guillotine,
[Monica I just wanna know..]
It's like I'm watching the A4 paper taking over the guillotine

And I wanna know what happened to your boyfriend
Cos he was looking at me like "woah..!"
Yeah right before the kitchen was a dustbowl
And tossing me the keys and I can't forget how
everything just coming through the windows
and half the street was under my nails
it's like we sitting in the Faraday cage,
when the lights all failed


Lucifer you're landing (6 cars the driveway oh i do believe it will be business inside)
Cross-hairs on the kitchen sink (it's a real spanner into my works i think i kicked the bucket)
Baby's on the bullseye (...do believe it will be business inside..)
I can't make new memories since, ..ries since, ..ries since.

And I wanna know what happened to your boyfriend
Cos he was looking at me like "woah..!"
Yeah right before the kitchen was a dustbowl
And tossing me the keys and I can't forget how
everything just coming through the windows
and half the street was under my nails
it's like we sitting in the Faraday cage,
when the lights all failed

And now everybody gotta go hungry
and everybody cover up their mouths
And I haven't seen the bodycount lately
but looking at your faces it must have been bad
and if everybody answered thier phonecalls..
but people say the army's on fire
it's like we sitting with our parachutes on
when the airport's gone


Oh. And incase you wondered, here are some other testaments to their amazingness:

"Photoshop Handsome" - NSC 39 NF

"Carry Me Home" - cover of Cygo's Birthyear Spinoff entry

(I just found this and I already love it)

Comments are welcome but alas, we are already destined for our 9th nonqual in a row :mrgreen:

Re: Zhydonje-Gíbberijë ~ Tour du Monde/Welt Tournee/Vuelta al Mundo

Cygó's gónë åll internacionale..

earth_from_space.jpg


For the next few editions Cydoni-Gibberia will be travelling around the world to find our entries and to give NSC a more international flavour, especially considering most of the acts that have been chosen for us have been UK/US artists. Since I suck at finding songs in other languages English is most likely to still dominate but it's the act's homeland that counts right? RIGHT?

:fr: Faites vos valises, car pour la première entrée nous envoler vers la France... :fr:

Re: Zhydonje-Gíbberijë ~ Tour du Monde/Welt Tournee/Vuelta al Mundo

DESTINATION ONE
:fr: FRANCE :fr:
M83
Couleurs





The first stop on the Cydu world tour brings us to M83, a French electronic/shoegaze artist named after Messier 83, a spiral galaxy, real name Anthony Gonzalez. His music is relatively widespread and has been used in many programs and adverts, including 14 appearances on Top Gear. With the longest entry ever to represent the island, Couleurs is an epic journey into sound (..oh, I feel so dirty and clichéd now) which has been hanging around as a possible entry for nigh on 2 years now, so what better way to finally use it than to kick off a new series of entries and on my 45th edition xcheer1


Lyrics:
Chasing colors through my fears
Chasing colors in my fears
I need yourself!
Should you find out
I need you a new way, need you all day
