Delta's Songs Spotlight Thread #1 ~ Featured Song: Possessionless
 
https://i.imgur.com/m2Ik6NX.jpg
Welcome to the 1st song spotlight thread. Here we will be discussing each of Delta's songs and music videos; what we love, what we hate, & what we wish we could change about them. We hope to start a new song discussion weekly, & will try to include questions which relate to the individual songs. This thread is a revamped version of the In Depth Song Discussion thread.


Featured Song: I Don't Care

http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/a.../IDontCare.jpg
Delta's debut single, I Don't Care, was released on November 12, 2001 in Australia. It wasn't very successful, only peaking at 64 on the charts. It was written by David Frank & Steve Kipner. The song was originally recorded by American singer Angela Vía for her debut album. This song hasn't been put on any of Delta's albums, but it was included in the set list of her Visualise Tour & it's chorus was featured in the Edge of Seventeen melody which was released on the B-side of the single I Can't Break It to My Heart.

Thanks for starting this, Chelle :hug: :)

What do you think of this song? I Don’t Care is definitely not my favourite Delta song. To be honest I don’t consider this Delta’s debut single, for me that will always be Born To Try. I’m glad Delta chose a different direction by releasing BTT.
Have you heard Angela Vía's version? If so which do you prefer? No
Do you remember when you first heard this song? Yes, it was when I bought the Delta DVD. The video for I Don't Care is on it and that's how I heard it.
Has your opinion of this song changed over time? Yes, when I first heard it I still thought it was cute but I don't anymore :lol:
Do you wish that it was released on one of the albums? Haha no.
Do you like the music video? No, it suits the song but that's about it..
Would you change anything in the music video? If so what? Ehm, they could’ve picked a different guy, other than that I wouldn’t really change anything.
Favourite lyrics? Don’t have any
Least favourite lyrics? They're not kissin your lips, they're not touching like this
Favourite part of the music video? When Delta is being blindfolded in the woods, that was sort of cute :lol:
Least favourite part? Towards the end, when Delta's wearing a white dress. She reminds me too much of Britney there :nono:
Anything else you'd like to add? Nope :)

love the thread! having the questions already there will definitely prompt the discussion :)

What do you think of this song? its listenable, but not one of her best!
Have you heard Angela Vía's version? If so which do you prefer? years ago probably, not one i will seek out if i barely listen to delta's version as it is :D
Do you remember when you first heard this song? i remember it before btt came out, but since it was quite like a lot of pop out that time (terrible :lol: ) i dismissed it and her.
Has your opinion of this song changed over time? i know the words, so something in me made me listen to it enough to learn it, but its not like i now love it :lol:
Do you wish that it was released on one of the albums? no way
Do you like the music video? nothing life changing about it
Would you change anything in the music video? If so what? the guy, bit too greasy for innocent delta (back then)
Favourite part of the music video? her with the dress, towards the end with the starry background (least thats what i remember :lol: )

shinebrighterxx 07-03-2012 06:33 PM

No problem Ingrid :hug:. That's good, & hopefully Evie :nod: :)

What do you think of this song? That if Delta's songs were all like this I wouldn't listen to her music :look:. It's not bad, but its not a song that I would listen to willingly either.
Have you heard Angela Vía's version? If so which do you prefer? Not that I'm aware of, & I don't particularly want to go see if I can find it to listen to it & see if its familiar or which I prefer
Do you remember when you first heard this song? No. I know I have heard it before & seen the music video before, but I don't know where or why. Maybe I heard it on the radio too when it was released. I used to listen to the radio back then every morning so that's a possibility.
Has your opinion of this song changed over time? Nope, don't think so. I don't hate it or like it, I don't think I ever have.
Do you wish that it was released on one of the albums? No, not really. I don't know that it would fit on the albums she already released & it would be odd to find it released now.
Do you like the music video? Its ok. I've seen worse, but I've seen far better too. Delta's had better.
Would you change anything in the music video? If so what? I think I'll agree about the guy :lol: :look:
Favourite lyrics? They don't see through these eyes, they don't feel with this heart
Lease favourite lyrics? mmm probably They're not kissin your lips, they're not touching like this, I feel the passion and the fire ignite me.
Favourite part of the music video? I can't say I have one. I will agree that the blindfold bit is cute
Least favourite part? I don't get how the white dress scenes fit with the rest of the video, so those?
Anything else you'd like to add? Not that I can think of

:lol: Could you imagine if she decided to put it on the 4th album?

shinebrighterxx 07-04-2012 06:23 PM

I don't think I want to imagine that :lol:. It would be really weird, especially if it wasn't rerecorded or anything it was just included. It's nice that she acknowledged it in the melody on the b-side of I Can't Break It to My Heart, but other than that I think it should stay in the past

What do you think of this song? That this is the reason why I do not listen to most pop/mainstream music (especially from then). It scares me.
Have you heard Angela Vía's version? If so which do you prefer? No. Please do not make me.
Do you remember when you first heard this song? It was one of the songs my cousin went around the house singing, that may not have been the first time I heard it but I do remember that it was one of them.
Has your opinion of this song changed over time? Well it is less scary without the music and you just get parts of it sung around you. So it is more if I actually listen to it that I want to stop listening to and run away from it.
Do you wish that it was released on one of the albums? No, and I am thankful it was not as then I would have had to hear it a lot more.
Anything else you'd like to add? No, I am just visiting the board and posting in random threads :shrug:.

broken melody 07-07-2012 05:44 AM

^ nice to see you posting here again :)

What does everyone think of the single cover?

shinebrighterxx 07-07-2012 06:11 AM

Aurora :lol: :hug: feel free to come back & post in random threads & relive songs you had sung at you soon :P

Good question :). I like it. But I think its just for the red in it :P. I think it suits the song though :shrug:

broken melody 07-07-2012 06:58 AM

I agree, I can't believe how young she looks there though!

shinebrighterxx 07-07-2012 06:16 PM

:lol: Yeah I know what you mean. Very young & innocent looking I think.

broken melody 07-10-2012 01:42 AM

Exactly :nod: Should we discuss a new song now? :D

What do you think of this song? It's such a classic, BTT is one of my favourite Delta songs :love:
Do you remember when you first heard this song? Yes, it's how I discovered Delta. I was watching TV with my mom when the video for BTT came on and I loved it so much, I bought the single a few days later.
Has your opinion of this song changed over time? Not really, the song still means a lot to me but no more or less than when I first heard it.
Favourite performance of Born To Try? I love them all, but I think her performance of BTT at the Visualise Tour is my favourite.
Favourite lyrics? All that you see is me, and all I truly believe
Least favourite lyrics? Don’t have any
Did you enjoy The Voice team performance of this song?* I did, I loved that they all performed it together :)
Do you like the music video? Yes, I think it suited the song but as Delta mentioned in an interview once, it wasn’t really her.. that’s why I don’t think it’s her best video, but I still love it.
Would you change anything in the music video? If so what? Not really
Favourite part of the music video? When Delta’s playing the piano
Least favourite part of the music video? When she’s standing in front of that building
What do you think of the single cover? I love it, mostly because it’s the first Delta single I bought but oh well haha.

Be wrong or right
Sometimes you've got to sacrifice the things you like

Did you enjoy The Voice team performance of this song? Yes I think they did a great job with it :sigh:
Do you like the music video? Yeah I guess. Its not the best, but its not a bad video.

Favourite part of the music video? Piano
Least favourite part of the music video? The rushing traffic around Delta in front of that building?
What do you think of the single cover? Simple but still good :)
