Single of The Day: Delta Goodrem - Wish You were Here

Oleh: admincd - 08 Nov 2012

Delta Goodrem is great! Ya, dia menyediakan tiga single dengan aroma berbeda sebagai pengenalan untuk album studio keempatnya. Yang teranyar adalah 'Wish You Were Here' yang dramatis ini. Menjadi polemik memang saat 'Dancing With A Broken Heart' dirilis sebelum ini dan tidak mengecap sukses setara 'Sitting On Top Of The World'. Orang-orang kurang menyukai ke-generik-an masuk dalam musik Delta. Mereka lebih menikmati gaya alamiahnya; vokal dan piano. Maka dari itu hadirlah single ini, yang ditulis Delta bersama Gary Clark. Dan ya, ini adalah kerjasama perdana mereka.

Seperti yang tadi tertulis, bahwa lagu ini mengandalkan vokal Delta yang jernih dan permainan piano yang menawan. Di samping itu, ada juga string section yang membuat arahan musiknya menuju kemegahan arena dengar, paduan suara yang menjadi vokal latar mendekati chorus akhir, dan full band yang diperdengarkan untuk puncak yang sempurna di chorus akhirnya. It really is something.

Kisah lagu yang dramatis tak boleh dinomorduakan. Harapan yang pupus karena takdir. Sesuatu yang manusia tak datang tolak; kematian. Mendalami liriknya bisa membawa kita pada suasana seram. Dalam liriknya tergambar jelas kondisi yang mengarah kesana. "the connection is death", "earth's asmosphere", "another dimension" dan "a new beginning somewhere". Saksikan video musiknya untuk menghilangkan perasaan takut tadi menjadi haru akan kisah yang sebenarnya terjadi disini.

Pembuktian bahwa lagu model demikian yang menjadi favorit orang dari Delta adalah bagaimana ia telah menghuni 10 besar chart di Australia, jauh lebih baik dari pencapaian single sebelumnya. Ini juga bisa memproyeksikan bahwa penampilan Delta di album terbarunya, "Child Of The Universe" akan begitu apik. Standar musik pop yang dihadirkan dengan beragam variasi adonan menjadikannya salah satu album terbaik tahun ini. Tanpa ragu sedikitpun!

LYRIC

I've been knock, knock, knocking at the thought of your door

But you're not, not, not here anymore

I ring, ring, ring you’re every phone in my head

But I can't get through, the connection is dead

I want, want to tell you about the news today

But you wouldn't believe me, you’d laugh it away

There's a ghost standing at the foot of my bed

And it's you, it's you, it's you

It was you they told me who was in trouble

I couldn't breathe on the other side of the world

And there was nothing I could do to help you

And it's true today would be your birthday

It would've been your 27th year

And I miss you in the earth's atmosphere

I wish you were here

I go back, back, back in every memory of there

But the clock ticks over every minute we shared

On my knees begging for it not to be true

But it was you, it was you, it was you

It was you they told me who was in trouble

I couldn't breathe on the other side of the world

And there was nothing I could do to help you

And it's true today would be your birthday

It would've been your 27th year

And I miss you in the earth's atmosphere

I wish you were here

Instead of just in my dreams and in my imagination

Confusing me completely from another dimension

Can you see the beauty from a new beginning somewhere

Cause I feel like I won't repair with time

It was you, it was you, it was you

It was you they told me who was in trouble

I couldn't breathe on the other side of the world

And there was nothing I could do to help you

And it's true today would be your birthday

It would've been your 27th year

And I miss you in the earth's atmosphere

I wish you were here

I wish you were here
