It's a brand new week! And a brand new opportunity to impress! FASTEN YOUR SEATBELTS! It's going to be a hell of ride this week
Tonight's battle is all about COVERS! You must post a song that your artist sings, BUT was previously released by someone ELSE!
If your artist does not have a cover, then post any song, but you will face a 5 point penalty for not posting a cover.
And tonight there will be an added twist! You will be competing 1:1 with a member of the opposite team! In addition to being ranked, you must outperform the person I pair you up with from the opposite side! You will be scored ballroom style! If you beat your opponent, you will earn a perfect score of 10 for your score and for your team! If you lose against your opponent, you win 0 points for you and your team :O !
Here are the pairings!
ALISAN PORTER // Midiaw VS KYLIE MINOGUE // Dylanglover1
DEMI LOVATO // Delights VS JOJO // kaylee21
JAMES ARTHUR // humanwebjet1 VS FALLING IN REVERSE // CarolinaSteele
TORI KELLY // tswiftlover13 VS JESSIE J // boozes
HALSEY // Jameslu VS INGRET KOSTENKO // Rollingderp
THE MILK CARTON KIDS // Moviemusicguy123 VS SUNSET SONS // crazybone5000
I was SO pumped to see a battle focused on covers. This is Falling in Reverse covering the song, " Gangsta's Paradise" originally done by Coolio. They performed this for the album "Punk goes 90's". Enjoy :)
Singer: 魏如萱 (Waa Wei)
Title:愛情万歲 (Viva Love)
Original singer:五月天 (Mayday)
This song is about physical love, when the night falls, romance overloads, everyone is getting physical, losing themselves in this mystical night.
The original version is more of a rock song, giving it a wild vibe. Her version replaces the bass with a trip hop instrumental beat, giving it a mysterious vibe.
Lyrics translation:
我需要你的體溫 (I need your warmth)
雖然此刻我一點也不覺得寒冷 (Even though I don't feel cold at all)
我感到巨大的饑餓 (I'm feeling an enormous hunger)
雖然無聊滿滿地撐漲我的靈魂 (Even though it's boredom that is taking over my soul)
相戀不能再傾國傾城 (No more chessy love story)
傾倒你心裡越來越冷越堅固的靈魂 (Filling up your soul that is getting more rigid and colder)
此刻你也就別再等 (Stop wasting your time by waiting)
不能再等 不能再等 讓熱情變冷 (Can't wait, can't wait, for the passion to burn out)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you,kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我穿過你的外衣 然後你的內衣
(Let me wear your overcoat, and your underwear too)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you, kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我刺探你最深深深處 你的秘密
(Let me dive into your most deepest part, your secret)
黎明之前 只要和你 (Before dawn, just you and me)
我不在乎你的姓名 (I don't care about your name)
你的明天你的過去你是男是女 (Your future, your past or even your gender)
我是如此的清醒 (I have never been more awoken before)
不打算離去 也不打算真的愛你
(I don't plan to leave you behind, and I don't plan to give you my love too.)
相戀不能再傾國傾城 (No more cheesy love stories)
傾倒你心裡越來越冷越堅固的靈魂
(Filling up your soul which is getting more rigid and colder)
此刻你也就別再等 (Now,stop wasting your time by waiting)
不能再等 不能再等 讓熱情變冷 (Can't wait, can't wait, for the passion to burn out)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you,kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我穿過你的外衣 然後你的內衣
(Let me wear your overcoat, and your underwear too)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you, kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我刺探你最深深深處 你的秘密
(Let me dive into your most deepest part, your secret)
黎明之前 只要和你 (Before dawn, just you and me)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you,kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我穿過你的外衣 然後你的內衣
(Let me wear your overcoat, and your underwear too)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you, kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我刺探你最深深深處 你的秘密
(Let me dive into your most deepest part, your secret)
黎明之前 只要和你 (Before dawn, just you and me)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you,kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我穿過你的外衣 然後你的內衣
(Let me wear your overcoat, and your underwear too)
就讓我吻你吻你吻你 直到天明 (Let me kiss you, kiss you,kiss you, until the sun rises)
就讓我刺探你最深深深處 你的秘密
(Let me dive into your most deepest part, your secret)
黎明之前 只要和你 (Before dawn, just you and me)
I think when an artist does a cover it should be spun to make it sound like their own, and Sunset Sons certainly do that in a cover of Stronger by Kanye West.
