Re: YAPONESIA: Your Sound Finale ~ NSC 135 Second-Chance NF

Great entry! Thinking up those special voting systems is fun, shame I didn’t get to try it earlier. Why does no one like Vi Hart though ;____;

Oh, and sorry [MENTION=12986]Romeo[/MENTION] for nullifying your votes with my scoring system. xrose

NSC 135







Makhno Project
ODESSA




Makhno Project - Odessa (live)



Makhno Project - Odessa

The winner of the second chance for Yaponesia's final 'Your Sound' is Ukraine's own Makhno Project! (in many ways this is actually a third chance attempt for them, and the nth time I send a song with reference to Odessa).

Also how appropriate that we sent this as Ukraine went on to win ESC! Such a sign :cool:

LYRICS

Как только лето придет, мы сядем все в самолет
заправим полный бак, встречай Одесса-мама.
Здесь Киев и Москва, Молдова и Донбасс
Баку и Ереван, гуляй Одесса-мама

Припев:
Одесса-мама...
......................
Одесса-мама...
......................

Вернулись в порт корабли, изюма всем привезли
и стали на якоря, жара до утра
Здесь ты не будешь один, здесь Токио и Берлин
Дубай и Тель-Авив, в Одессе все свои..

Одесса-мама.... (4 р.)

Ocellot
JELLY SOUL






Ocellot - Jelly Soul (live)





Ocellot - Jelly Soul

Ocellot are a five-piece band based in Barcelona. Their music is characterised by 'basic but enveloping doses of psychedelia found in the loops characteristic to their music, with more consistency and personality'. And adorable nodding critters.

They were a discovery for me at Benicassim festival last July as one of the more local acts playing there. Jelly Soul is a song about a soul made of jelly (I guess?).

Ignea
A L G A




Excerpts from Ignea performing live in Muldowa





Ignea - Alga (Forward)

Ignea, from Kiev, describe themselves as a 'modern oriental metal' band. Formerly known as 'Parallax', they were the first Ukrainian band to play oriental metal. In 2015, the band changed its name to IGNEA and released the debut video for their single 'Alga' with a full symphonic orchestra.

The song title "Alga" means "forward" in the Crimean Tatar language, which the track is dedicated to. With a backdrop of soaring orchestral melodies and driving guitars, lead vocalist Helle Bogdanova sings about the beauty of her land, as well as some other recent events in that area of course (she doesn't seem very happy in that spoken break, does she...)







:ua: LYRICS :ua:

I:

Million days and nights before
When only tarpans ruled this world
Our nomad fathers took it in their hands

Warm from coddling sun by day
Cooled by sea breezing by nights
It is loved so hard that our heart just lights

CHORUS:

No one can take our land from us, it is our home
And no one can decide for us, leave us all alone
We will hold arms to death until the last of us stands still
We will destroy and crush all foes, we’ll shout 'Alğa!' and kill!

II:

Violet lilacs fill the woods,
Meadows full of grass an fruits
Mountain peaks of limestone pierce the blue-blue sky

Stormy waves crash on the rocks,
Grapes entwine the antic scree
How can one not love this land of sun and sea?

CHORUS:

No one can take our land from us, it is our home
And no one can decide for us, leave us all alone
We will hold arms to death until the last of us stands still
We will destroy and crush all foes, we’ll shout 'Alğa!' and kill!

BREAK (spoken):

How dare you godless bastards step on my land?
How dare you touch my daughters and sons?
This will be your last steps, unless you turn,
Put your two-headed eagle into your ass and run!

CHORUS:

No one can take our land from us, it is our home
And no one can decide for us, leave us all alone
We will hold arms to death until the last of us stands still
We will destroy and crush all foes, we’ll shout 'Alğa!' and kill!
