crazymaja Amazing work. Superb synths and wonderful voice, a sublime mix of black and white tones.
The message is strong but you absorb every word and feeling through the hypnotic music.
Very well done!

Right near the elevator doors An unexpected fireball The last thing I've heard was people's screams and shouts That now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby Right near the elevator doors An unexpected fireball The last thing I've heard was people scream and shout That now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby Now sounds like a lullaby

Flight 175 03:14

Besides of heaven and hell There is a no man's land where Where law belongs to the beat, vertigo, to thrills No one commands in the sky But on Flight 175 Where seconds count as a year One ego, one blink All I wanna hear A dearly voice from outta here One last look before I go Stolen kisses yearning from inside Angel wings upon melted glass Stolen kisses yearning from inside Angel wings upon melted glass All I wanna hear A dearly voice from outta here One last look before I go Stolen kisses yearning from inside Angel wings upon melted glass Stolen kisses yearning from inside Angel wings upon melted glass

Antenna 05:13
lyrics

You and me We flow light as feathers in the wind You and me Wonder how we got to this end Maybe I've already done the things That I had to stay for I'm just looking for your gaze down there If only you were closer Everytime I swore I'd stayed forever Each time promise I'd extend the time Before I realized It's late It's late It's much too late How can I give you a proper goodbye? How can I dry the tears I Never thought I'd cried I'll bow with my antenna Abandon my place in the clouds 'Til death do us apart You and me South and North of the horizon You and me Solid as two steel towers You and me we got no Stairwell A We ain't got tomorrow It's better not to believe my eyes Than to swallow poison Everytime I promised that I'd never Let a never ending silence fall So now I raise my voice It's late It's late It's much too late How can I give you a proper goodbye? How can I dry the tears I Never thought I'd cried I'll bow with my antenna A signal to switch off the heart 'Til death do us apart Everytime I swore I'd stay forever Each time promised I'd extend the time Before I realized It's late It's late It's much too late How can I give you a proper goodbye? How can I dry the tears I Never thought I'd cried I'll bow with my antenna In big style with you by my side 'Til death do us apart 'Til death do us apart

Falling Man 02:29
lyrics

Out of this tower I've nothing else to do Escape from the flames and jump into The Blue I'm gonna see what these wings are for Bridge to a doom that I can't control Riding the wind and tamin' the air The line I've drawn between life and death Uncatchable With my best dress for a date with the End An infinite time I'm hovering in the void Free flying, open arms Towards the ground I'm gonna see what these wings are for Bridge to a doom that I can't control Riding the wind and tamin' the air The line I've drawn between life And my back on the ground

Gander 04:04
lyrics

Hell This is what I supposed to be hell A place where I was safe while Everybody else unfairly fell Hell Just like a great desolate expanse Where guilt would never let me Eat or sleep or thank for being alive A yellow ribbon tied To a Fate that chose me Hell A place you land on and get welcomed But someone paid in your place before A yellow ribbon tied I've broken through Tell the world I'm safe in Gander and it could have been me Tell the world I'm safe in Gander and it seems so unreal All that blood to feed the men's mean streak Survived in New Found Land In 39 we were droven out of the sky A yellow ribbon tied I've broken through Tell the world I'm safe in Gander and it could have been me Tell the world I'm safe in Gander and it seems so unreal All that blood to feed the men's mean strea

Windows on the World 03:09

As curtains open wide on A glittering view Something got in the way Windows on the world The scenery burns The sun with its rays Windows on the world Framed in a sudden fireball A hell of crystal and make believe I still hang on and wave my hands I can't breath and I can't escape I can't breath and I can't escape I can't breath and I can't escape An angel's guiding me down Windows on the world I wish I'd stayed Wish I had call Windows on the world Wish I'd enjoyed them longer

The Two Sides of the Sky 03:30
lyrics
buy track
See the two sides of the sky Look how beautiful it can be to fly But do never look down Or at least Don't do it now The closer some of us will ever get to heaven The closer some of us - They said The closer some of us will ever get to heaven The closer some of us - They said The closer some of us will ever get to heaven The closer some of us - They said The closer some of us will ever get to heaven The closer some of us - They said (From above I think of home From above I think of home) I can't breath and I can't escape I can't breath and I can't escape See the two sides of the sky One lifts you up to the top of the world The closer I am to heaven The further I am from my home and if I Really can't go back down again Then I can only go higher Really can't go back down again Then I can only go higher The closer some of us will ever get to heaven The closer some of us will ever get to heaven

Molten Metal 04:57
lyrics

Oh That morning sky so clean I stood out dressed in glass and steel Strong with the size that matters Oh What's coming to me fast? It comes to make me doubt myself and feeling so fragile A one way carpet ride A hole in the skyline The last waltz is playing in the hallways and Weeps tears of molten metal Oh Deluded engeneer How long it lasted the make believe Such an invincible greatness Oh Just my highness' made of? What's this glow for if pierced my heart I Cannot stand no more A one carpet ride A hole in the skyline The last waltz is playing in the hallways and weeps tears of molten metal I was there every night Wrapping whole the city in my light Oh oh You might see me collapse Oh oh oh A golden age has gone in molten metal Naaa That morning sky so clean Naaa This peaceful grandeur make believe

Man of the Clouds 04:20
lyrics
buy track
Higher where I wish I'd get once more Just like an endless tightrope walk Head against the wind A gift, an unforgettable scene Oh oh They still stand Forever there with the man of the clouds Walking both worlds on the wire Oh I miss that marvel I was used to call "mine" I'll keep it standing in my mind Now the distance longer to another end Reach to heaven Still they rather be Forever there with the man of the clouds Walking both worlds on the wire Forever there with the man of the clouds Walking both worlds on the wire Each and every step is blessed Almost written in the past Dressed in black Oh - forward to the moon And back To the moon and back Chasing my fate in the sky 'til that fate had become ours Forever there with the man of the clouds Walking both worlds on the wire Forever there with the man of the clouds Walking both worlds on the wire Forever there with the man of the clouds Walking both worlds on the wire Forever there with the man of the clouds Waving my towers goodbye

about

Vertigo can be considered as a Synth/Dream Pop Opera that revolves around the theme of the collapse of landmarks, using the metaphor of the Twin Towers in New York. Each track draws inspiration from the tragic events of September 11th 2001 to represent moods of anxiety, guilt, empathy and fear.
The main ingredients to expect in these songs are: arpeggiators, 80's/90's suggestions, dreamy guitars and cinematic rarefied atmospheres.

about

Les Longs Adieux image

Les Longs Adieux Rome, Italy

"Les Longs Adieux is a darkwave band from Rome, whose music encapsulates a strange mix of new wave and electro. Their self- proclaimed Mediterranean wave sounds includes echoes of 80s dance floor fillers, catchy pop hooks and operatic inserts. Their aesthetic is a revisited version of post-punk fashion, married with a goth rock attitude and a retro-wave fascination."
