In Depth Song Discussion - This Week: Butterfly
I know we have our very own threads for albums, singles, b-sides and tour songs..but we talk about them as a whole then move on, which isn't fair to the ones we really hate
 or just in general when it comes to appreciating Delta's work.I thought for the first one, I'd pick one of the ones that people seem to either love or hate: Bare Hands! What do you think of the lyrics? Do you like the melody? Could you see it being released? What would the video be like? Bare Hands I've got a question on my mind You can answer in your time Just don't freeze like a deer in the headlights Sometimes it's the risk of getting hurt That's beautiful and worse, Is being numb feeling nothing at all A little pain lets you know your alive We gotta live and love not just survive Hearts that don't love can't be broken A dream stays a dream if not woken If you never bleed then you won't understand Come pick me red roses with your bare hands I'm standing right in front of you But you don't know what to do It's the fear of thorns that keeps you out of the garden Be brave, be the fool, you've never been 'cause I'll be here to kiss you skin Melt me on the path where love could begin Hearts that don't love can't be broken A dream stays a dream if not woken If you never bleed then you won't understand Come pick me red roses with your bare hands Make me feel I'm worth it Don't love me with gloves on Pick me roses roses with your bare hands Make me feel I'm worth the scratches Hearts that don't love can't be broken A dream stays a dream if not woken If you never bleed then you won't understand Come pick me red roses with your bare hands A little pain lets you know you're alive We gotta live and love not just survive For those who haven't heard it before  :And live at Max Sessions: |

Ooo this is a great thread idea.
 I looove Bare Hands. I love the melody and the lyrics - I think it's a really clever concept and I love all the metaphors in it! I could see it being released, yeah, although I don't know how well it'd do. I reckon it could have a really good video as well coz of all the imagery. __________________

Bare Hands is definitely one of my favourite songs. I think I mostly like it for the lyrics, which I think in some way are true to life.
It could definitely be released as a single. The beat is catchy enough that I think people would wanna listen to it. __________________

So you think she could release it and people would love it, as opposed to my thinking; that people would hear it and be like WTF, is this Delta?!

The song is different and not very Delta-like....but I think that's what may draw people in.

I do like this song, it's just the little "a little pain lets you know you're alive" rap that puts me off.

Do you find it to be too emo? __________________

Believe Again is very Delta! Bit doof doof but essentially very her.
As for BH..it's a bit emo yes, and that's okay, I like that from her..bit of depth, you know, but I find with that song I'll just put something else on that will make me wanna sing along like YWOBMH after letting BH play for a bit [if at all]. It's a bit of an automatic reaction that I can't help. What are your play counts for this song? I think mine's pretty low in terms of the whole Delta cd. |

Oh! I'm always singing along with BH.
It's got the most play counts for me out of the whole album. That's just on my iTunes though, often I listen to them when I've got my iPod plugged in on the iPod section. __________________

Does your ipod count not transfer to itunes when you're syncing it? I think mine does that..I could be wrong though, 'cos I listen to songs obsessively on both itunes/pod so after a while I can't tell.
Mine's at: 87 plays. Wow, way more than I was expecting! |

I haven't got my iPod & iTunes synced.
I use Windows Media Player sometimes too. Wow, 87! That's a lot! __________________
