Single of the Day: 5 Seconds of Summer - She Looks So Perfect

Released by: Universal Music Indonesia

Setiap rockstar punya start di satu titik, dan bagi 5 Seconds of Summer, titik itu bernama 'She Looks So Perfect', single yg mereka luncurkan sebagai debut internasional bersama Capitol Records. Penting bagi musisi baru untuk menampilkan karya mereka sendiri, sebagai wujud idealisme musik mereka. Maka, anggota band, Michael Clifford dan Ashton Irwin terjun langsung sebagai penggubah lagu, dibantu oleh Jake Sinclair.

Hasilnya? Karya mereka sepadan dengan musik dari band punk rock terdahulu seperti Panic! At The Disco ataupun band pop rock yang sedang naik daun, Lawson. Hal ini yang membuat mereka "pantas" dan "layak" untuk didengar. Bukti lain mengenai kelayakan musik mereka adalah dalam jangka waktu sehari dari perilisannya, single ini mampu menguasai chart iTunes di tidak kurang dari 39 negara dalam tiga benua, Australia, Eropa, dan Asia. There's so much more than meets the eye, which meets the ear.

Kreasi musik dari 5 Seconds Of Summer dalam karyanya yang satu ini tidak lagi tergolong mentah. Musik mereka dibawa ke level berikutnya, di atas karya cover yang dulu sering ditampilkan. Seandainya Michael cs menempuh jalur indie untuk menjual musik mereka, 5SOS mungkin masih tetap bercitrakan band kelas pensi. Jadi, mereka sudah berada di track yang pas untuk menuju global stardom hingga akhirnya mencapai titik rockstar yang dituju.

LYRIC

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Simmer down, simmer down

They say we're too young now to amount to anything else

But look around

We worked too damn hard for this just to give it up now

If you don't swim, you'll drown

But don't move, honey

You look so perfect standing there

In my American Apparel underwear

And I know now, that I'm so down

Your lipstick stain is a work of art

I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart

And I know now, that I'm so down

Hey, hey!

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Let's get out, let's get out

'Cause this deadbeat town's only here just to keep us down

While I was out, I found myself alone just thinking

If I showed up with a plane ticket

And a shiny diamond ring with your name on it

Would you wanna run away too?

'Cause all I really want is you

You look so perfect standing there

In my American Apparel underwear

And I know now, that I'm so down

I made a mixtape straight out of '94

I've got your ripped skinny jeans lying on the floor

And I know now, that I'm so down

Hey, hey!

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

You look so perfect standing there

In my American Apparel underwear

And I know now, that I'm so down

Your lipstick stain is a work of art

I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart

And I know now, that I'm so down

Hey, Hey!

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

You look so perfect standing there

In my American Apparel underwear

And I know now, that I'm so down (hey)

Your lipstick stain is a work of art (hey, hey)

I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart (hey, hey)

And I know now, that I'm so down (hey, hey)

Hey
