Well, somehow we ended up winning the semi which I'm absolutely thrilled by! I've only done it three times (even Capital Cities didn't manage it o.o) so I'm over the moon. Dropping to 23rd isn't great but eh, that's pretty epic in itself Either way I wasn't expecting to qualify so a massive thank you to everybody who voted for Congorock
For NSC 84, you knew this was going to happen...
NSC 84 M83 Reunion
(the song at the end is called Where The Boats Go and follows Reunion on his album)
One of my most played songs ever and easily one of the best tracks on an already incredible album, M83 will finally get his time to shine in NSC again, with the release of his new music video. Here's hoping you will appreciate this entry just as much as I do The video follows the children from Midnight City as they run away from men in a van, or at least, I think that's the plotline... This is the second in what I presume to be a trilogy of "Hurry Up, We're Dreaming" music videos.
You came out of nowhere
Stealing my heart and brain
Flaming my every cell
You make me feel myself
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Will you stay in this land forever?
Will you stay?
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Across the time and space
A never-ending dance
A blooming and a trance
You make me feel my soul
There's no more loneliness
Only sparkles and sweat
There's no more single fate
You make me feel myself
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Will you stay in this land forever?
Will you stay?
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Your body is like a lightning rod
Capsize me and douse me in your bay
A shiver of want, always
When you're on the tip of my tongue
In the back of your parked car
I could build a fort
And play all day
Between your lips
Let's stay here forever
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Ay ayy oh oh ohh
Will you stay in this land forever?
(Ay ayy oh oh ohh)
Will you stay in this land forever?
(Ay ayy oh oh ohh)
Will you stay in this land forever?
(Ay ayy oh oh ohh)
Will you stay?
Re: CYDONI-GIBBERIA 85 - Strange Talk - Eskimo Boy
For NSC 85, Cydoni-Gibberia will be soaking up the sun with some Australian electropop
NSC 85 Strange Talk Eskimo Boy
Drawing comparisons to Passion Pit, Nightbox and even our very own Capital Cities, this four-piece from Melbourne are about as close as you can get to an ethnic Cydu entry, making them the perfect choice for the next edition. They will represent us with the not-so-summery sounding named Eskimo Boy, and we hope they can bring some much needed sunshine to this otherwise drizzly British July
So dark and lonely
Walking through the night
trying to find his way home again.
Lost and forgotten
Forever lasts forever, lasts forever not forever.
Upon the tree tops, he sits and watches over all the people as they ponder.
I'm understanding all the lessons that you teach me, that you teach me, that you taught me.
Ohhhh like a jigsaw, like a jigsaw, like a jigsaw...
Ohhhh like a jigsaw like a jigsaw, like a jigsaw...
Ohhhh like a jigsaw, like a jigsaw like a jigsaw...
Ohhhh couldn't find me, couldn't find me, couldn't find me...
It's just another world for an eskimo
It's just another world for an eskimo
It's just another world for an eskimo
It's just another world for an eskimo
He's thinking out loud
Speaking to a ghost about the way, which he wonders.
Acceptance to the fact, there's no turning back, broken flakes to the people.
I know where I stand, they know where I stand, I am a man amongst the people.
The final pieces have come together
Now i'm finished matching up the puzzle.
Ohhhh like a jigsaw, like a jigsaw like a jigsaw...
Ohhhh couldn't find me, couldn't find me, couldn't find me...
It's just another world for an eskimo
It's just another world for an eskimo
It's just another world for an eskimo
It's just another world for an eskimo
Re: CYDONI-GIBBERIA 86 - I Break Horses - Winter Beats
Cygo has decided to go all Swedish and unseasonably frosty on your likely suntanned, maybe sweaty, quite possibly complaining-about-the-heat-even-though-the-UK-is-much-worse-and-you-make-me-feel-bad-for-living-in-a-shithole asses...
NSC 86 I Break Horses Winter Beats
With soaring, colossal walls of sound and anthemic epicness, intertwined with frosty lyricism, I Break Horses has won the 67th golden ticket to represent Cydoni-Gibberia at the now prestigious Nation Song Contest. Winning over the selective committee on the first listen, Winter Beats will no doubt beat you senseless around the head with its escalating drum beats, crystallized synths and crushing climax - and if we're lucky, you'll be begging for more...
Heartbeats
When your heart in winter beats
Don't let that cold blood freeze
'Cause frozen love will bleed
Blood streaked
Streaked with frozen leaves
Leaves broken streets for me
Slips on cold red streets
Winter beats
It strikes for you and me
Don't let that cold blood freeze
Cause frozen love will bleed
Winter beats
It strikes for you and me
Don't let that cold blood freeze
Cause frozen love will bleed
