Single of the Day: 2AM Club - Worry About You

Oleh: aihasibuan - 07 Oct 2010

Perkenalkan, 2AM Club. Ini adalah nama band yang terdiri dari 6 anak muda asal Los Angeles, California. Band ini dibentuk di tahun 2007 dan aktif dari panggung ke panggung kawasan LA, hingga akhirnya demo mereka lolos ke RC Records di September 2008 lalu. Mereka terdiri dari Marc Griffin sebagai vokalis utama, Tyler Cordy sebagai MC, Matt Reagan pada gitar, Dave Dalton pada keyboard, Ian O'Neill di drum, dan Matt Warshauer di gitar bass. Tahun ini mereka berhasil merilis single pertama 'Worry About You', dari debut album "What Did You Think Was Going To Happen?".

Gambaran yang paling sederhana untuk mendeskripsikan single ini adalah gaya bermusik 311. Mereka punya pop yang dikemas apik dengan indie rock, menjadikan single ini bukti kreatif 2AM Club. Sementara kita dibuai dengan alunan musik yang sedikit reggae, kita juga disuguhi dengan rap dari sang MC. Kita bisa blown away dalam durasi 3 menit 11 detik ini.

Banyak ulasan yang mengatakan kalau lirik yang mereka gunakan untuk single ini terlalu lemah hingga tidak ada kesan istimewa yang terpancar. Tapi usaha mereka untuk mencari kata-kata yang tepat dalam ide cerita "merayu" juga enggak terlalu buruk. Coba bagian lirik ini "And if you go now//Out that doorway//I won't say you're wrong//But you know that I'll worry about you". Memang kurang matching di bagian akhir kalimat, tapi begitu ikut sing along di bagian ini, lagunya berasa enaknya.

Bagiku, kekurangan tersebut tertutupi dengan alunan musik ceria dan variatif dari mereka. Mereka punya bebunyian drum, soul bass, kibor, bahkan gendang perkusi. Masih dalam area worthy. Terdengar fresh! (Ai Hasibuan/CreativeDisc Contributor)

For as long long as I can remember

Its been December

No sun no summertime to treasure

We weren't grown

And every time that they told us surrender

"It will be better"

We'd just go holding on till forever

To what we know

Broken lover yes I made you

Believe that I would be the one to heal you

And if you go now

Out that doorway

I won't say you're wrong

But you know that I'll worry about you

For as long

Long as she can remember

She wanted better

No home no one there to protect her

All alone

And so she told me, I was her center

Nothing would tempt her

I still roamed

Just like her father left her

Oohh he left her

Broken lover yes I made you

Believe that I would be the one to heal you

And if you go now

Out that doorway

I won't say you're wrong

But you know that I'll worry about you

Isn't it bad you've been a good victim

You thought I was worth it you act like I would listen

And maybe you were right at one point someday

I used to watch you treat the streets like a runway

I used to write with tears on your pretty painted face

Sign language on your back from the first taste

So when he whispers in your ear and you think of me

You wish I would've treated you like you treated me

When you wake up from your dreams to the hallway

Sleepwalking through the streets dressed in all gray

Blinking streetlamps in the window pane

I worried from the second that I learned your name

Everything in love is light

But where was I last night

And why don't you feel right

Broken lover yes I made you

Believe that I would be the one to heal you

And if you go now

Out that doorway

I won't say you're wrong

But you know that I'll worry about you
