Catchup numero dos!
This entry mixes Kosheen’s “Hide U” and Parov Stelar’s “Chambermaid Swing”…which honestly aren’t songs I recognize on their own. This mashup is straight up Hide U’s lyrics with Chambermaid Swing’s background, and I really like the choice. Chambermaid Swing give a great uneven grouping of 8/8 (123, 123, 12) which propels the song forward and keeps me interested despite a lack of variety in the vocal range. The lyrics revolve around Kosheen’s promise not to hurt someone—how alluring after a breakup. Specifically, the line “If you were in my heart/I’d surely not break you” is what caught my attention on my listen through and keeps me coming back for more, not the least because the lines match so perfectly with Chambermaid Swing’s background.
Try to not be TOO sad when the background pulses end; I’m always a little put out once they’re gone.
