Eurovision 2024 songs that remind me of the Life Series
“SAND” by SABA (Denmark): Desert Duo
Literally the name of the song is sand
“Guess we built a castle out of sand” metaphorical and literal reference to the Sand Fortress from Third Life
“Yesterday I had you by my side, now we’re just like strangers in the night” general reference to the splitting of friendships between seasons
“Doomsday Blue” by Bambi Thug (Ireland): Double Life PearlescentMoon
Witch themes, Scarlet Pearl
“I know you’re living a lie” Scott living with a soulmate who isn’t actually his
“I guess you’d rather have a star than the moon” solar/tarot themes, Scott=Star, Pearl=Moon, Scott choosing to value himself and his chosen partner over Pearl
“Your favourite color, compared to the others is doom, doomsday blue” Scott’s association with the colour blue
(also plz check out @aresonist they made art of pearl and Doomsday Blues which is awesome)
“Ulveham” by Gåte (Norway): Double Life PearlescentMoon (yes again)
“Ho gav meg ein ham som ulve grå” (Then she gave me skin like a grey wolf), wolf themes remind me of Tilly and her wolf army
“Ho svor meg einsam i skogjen gå” (She cursed me to walk the forest alone), Pearl being abandoned
The song talks about a young maiden who’s mother died (Scott’s relationship with Pearl) and was replaced by an evil stepmother who cast her out (Scott’s relationship with Cleo)
The song also talks about the maiden not being satisfied until she spilled the blood of both her stepmother and her brother (Cleo and by proxy Martyn)
“The Code” by Nemo (Switzerland): Eyes and Ears AU Martyn InTheLittlewood
“I, I went to Hell and back, To find myself on track”, something something Vtuber lore
“I broke the code” general language about hacking the computer system, aka breaking the code of the Watchers
“Somewhere between the O's and ones, That's where I found my kingdom come, My heart beats like a drum” this verse makes me think of Limited Life finale??
(tbh this song could also be Watcher Grian)
Should I add any more songs??
