Kamilla Lovett- sweet possibility, Lyrics

Sweet possibility- Kamilla Lovett

Today I think I made my peace

It settled in the front row sleeping on seats

Gazing through the window in the smouldering heat

Lazing out in the sun, grass underneath feet

Today bones rested in sleep

Laced around the space it's so damn sweet

Brazen just aint phased to admit defeat

Bitter sweet chase aint the food I eat

(Chorus)

 And oh I say it's all to tide me over

and I’d be such a fool to stay unfree

And oh I say it's all to tide me over

Riding on that sweet possibility

You say you think we've saddled a storm

And rode it all day until the storm turned warm

Well dear sir I think I agree

Under carpet swept dirt won't capture me

Peace sir I can't conceal it

The future's dancing and yes I feel it

Peace sir though shall not hide

Bigger fish to fry then that well posed pride

(Chorus)

And oh I say it's all to tide me over

And I’d be such a fool to stay unfree

And oh I say it's all to tide me over

Riding on that sweet possibility

connotations of lotus flowers

“Lotuses in Hinduism symbolize prosperity, beauty, fertility, eternity and eternal youth.”

“In Buddhism, lotus flowers mean purity of speech, mind and body rising above the waters of desire and attachment.”

I have chosen to use Lotus flowers in the music video because of the connotations with religions. These connotations link to my music video and the lyrics, for example, when she sings “and I'd be such a fool to stay unfree” she is saying that she would be a 'fool' to get attached to someone or something, so this then links with the Buddhism's 'rising above the waters of desire and attachment.'

'Bitter sweet chase ain't the food I eat.' When these lyrics are sung, i'm going to have a shot of my two girls with tape over there mouths reading 'bitter sweet' this again links with Purity of speech, because they are unable to say the bad words.

I have also chosen to use two young girls aged seventeen. The use of young people connotes eternal youth, and beauty which are lotus symbols of Hinduism.

A blue lotus flower means wisdom, knowledge and victory over the senses.

I am using a blue Lotus in my video, this especially links with the lyrics “bigger fish to fry then that well posed pride.” because she is using her wisdom to forget about pride.. she believes there are better things in the world other than pride and status.

 

You are an Emo! Your eye liner bill is huge. It’s important to keep up your cartoon ghoul look, and match it with your other staples – checkerboard Vans, dyed black hair, skinny jeans and a T-shirt declaring your love for The Rocket Summer. Add neon flashes to play the Nu Rave kids at their own game. A tortured soul is optional.

find your tribe

You are a Townie! Your job might be a bit boring but it brings home the bacon and helps you save up for those two weeks away to Spain. Your weekends are set in stone – trip to the shops in town, buy yourself something nice, head to the All Bar One with friends, have a laff, maybe go for a club, as long as there’s none of the indie weirdo music. Keep it straight, you say.
