    She deserves far more recognition. Mostly she's known for her contribution in Somebody That I Used to Know, but her music is way better than what she did there. She's fun to listen to.

  • @sk1llerdrag
    @sk1llerdrag 2 ปีที่แล้ว +388

    honestly one of the greatest pop songs ever made, it is so sonically dynamic and nothing ever stays the same in this song, there are so many subtle touches that work together phenomenally, from the fact that the harmonies and melodies clash with one another, fitting into the theme of kimbra trying to "open up your heart", to the key change, the fact that the chorus changes FOUR fucking times after the key change, the double tracking throughout the track, just phenomenal.

    • @nonalolagirl
      @nonalolagirl ปีที่แล้ว +10

      She should have been, but she speaks ill of Vows and has done everything in her power to distance herself from pop music. She seems to want to dabble in a new genre with each album. But with the last 2, it appears she has found her home. Hopefully, she has recognition in the sphere of Bjork someday, since that experimental style seems to be more up her alley.

    @jalfredprufrock620 4 ปีที่แล้ว +826

    For the music theory nerds out there, the harmony in this song is really unconventional and interesting. It starts out firmly in Gb, with the lead-up to the chorus making it clear that the key will stay the same ("all gotta break down, ..." : V7/ii - (iii - bII7/ii) - ii - V7). However, the first Gb of the chorus, which we're expecting to be the I, inexplicably becomes recontextualized as the IV, first with the #11(C) in the descending portion of the line played by the plucked strings, and then more irrevocably with the repeating ii - iii - IV - V in Db of the "open up your heart, ..." section. The effect is jarring but fresh, and quite unlike anything I can recall ever hearing in tonal harmony.
    It makes sense from a songwriting perspective too because of how it matches with the lyrics ("all gonna break down..." just before the unexpected key change, and the repeated "open up your heart" as our ears adjust, or open up, to the new key center.)

    Kimbra isn't for the weak hearted, her music grows onto you. One listen really doesn't do it. If you think any of her music sucks then just take a few more listens and listen closer. It's great. ^.^

    Discovered Kimbra Lee Johnson over 11y ago. This video changed my life. Joined her fanclub, bought her music, uploaded her videos, have seen her live many times. Will be seeing her in 23 in DC and whenever, wherever she's w/in a 100 mi drive. She was, and is, the First - Lady of Music! Doing her own thing, not bowing to the forces trying to change her. Superstar Talent since she was 10, Very few in her league, yet she stays humble. So, I bow and say, "We're not worthy"!

    LYRICS:
    this is nonstop baby
    you've got me going crazy
    you're heavier than i knew
    but i dont want no other
    youre my cameo love
    only here for a moment or two
    you stay inside that bubble
    with all of your trouble
    in your black hole
    you turn from the skies
    you dance with your demise
    i'll be here when you come home
    we've all gotta break down
    let me come and break down with you
    cos everydays like talking in ur sleep!
    love is like a silhoeutte in dreams!
    open up your heart!
    open up your heart and let me pull you out of here
    ive got high hopes baby
    but all you do is take me down to depths that i never knew
    you've got two arms baby
    they're all tangled in ladies of the black skies posing blue
    let go of your mother
    and turn to your brother!
    not a long gone lovers noose
    sometimes baby the hardest part of breaking is leaving pieces behind you
    we've all gotta get by
    let me come and hold you high, with you
    cos everydays like talking in ur sleep!
    love is like a silhoeutte in dreams!
    open up your heart!
    open up your heart and let me pull you out of here
    open up your heart to me!
    the sun won't shine if you're not looking
    baby love is all that you need.
    -I did not do this I copied and pasted!
