"THE FOOL" with Candlelight Ficus is out!!

 


hello hellooo!

I know I haven't written anything over here for a long time, but I promise I am working on reeeeally cool stuff right now and will have some amazing news soon!

But for now I wanna introduce a single, that came out September 1st with the incredibly talented band "Candlelight Ficus"! We actually wrote this song last year on vacation, while sitting on a beach in Croatia. At first it wasn't planned to come out as a feature single, but as time passed we thought it might actually be a cool idea.

We shot the music video at "Die Scherbe" in Graz, portrayed as sad clowns going out for dinner. And let me tell you: it was very hard to not laugh, while looking at Niki with that make up on. This fantastic make up was done by Laura Scalcinati and I couldn't be happier with the result!


a huge thanks also goes out to Simon Reithofer for the music video and to Mathias Garmusch for mixing and mastering the song!
It was a really cool experience to be working on that song <3

lyrics:

i have been tryin' 
to get you off my mind 
you opened my eyes 
now i'm blind 

you took me to your desert 
then you promised me a treasure 
when i gave you all my hands 
you let it go 
how was i supposed to measure 
all the secrets in your pleasure 
i can't figure out your game of stop and go 

oooh then you took me all the way 
pretending that I'll be okay 
thought that i would see the day 
when I'm finally here to stay 

i have been tryin' 
to get you off my mind 
you opened my eyes 
now i'm blind 
i thought all along 
that i would get out strong 
you proved me right 
i was wrong 

you handed me the cards 
knowing i would play the part 
of the fool who stands in line 
and has to wait 
you knew right from the start 
i was dancing in the dark 
everybody saw 
that i was way too late 

then you took me all the way
pretending that I'll be okay 
thought that i would see the day 
when I'm finally here to stay 

i have been tryin' 
to get you off my mind 
you opened my eyes 
now i'm blind 
i thought all along 
that i would get out strong 
you proved me right i was wrong
