Writing a
blog without an internet connection is not easy. Really, I tried, but then I got
tired because it didn’t work. Anyway, now everything is back to normal. Or at
least what I consider this way.
It was difficult
to make a decision: Alt-J vs. Trailerpark, “Evey Other Freckle” vs. “Bleib in
der Schule” (=Stay at School), peculiar lyrics vs. provoking lyrics. Finally
Trailerpark made it, because school just started. "Every other Freckle" sounds really cool, though.
As with
their other songs, “Bleib in der Schule” contains some explicit content, but besides
all these drug references and descriptions of a superstar’s lifestyle (money & um... beautiful women), there is
also irony and satire. Aside from that the hook fits perfectly to the young audience. Just one request: don’t take this song literally.
The beat is
not really spectacular, the song rather focuses on the lyrics. But there’s a guitar
solo at the end, which is nice. Watch or listen, even if you don’t understand
everything. Oh, and by the way, the video might be nsfw.
