Single of The Day: 30 Seconds to Mars - Up in The Air

Oleh: admincd - 03 May 2013

Released by: Universal Music Indonesia

Empat tahun setelah album This Is War (2009), Jared Leto dan kawan-kawan yang tergabung dalam band pengusung rock-alternative, 30 Second to Mars, pun rupanya ingin kembali memanaskan industri musik dunia dengan album ke empat mereka, Love, Lust, Faith and Dreams. Dirilis pada tanggal 17 Mei, album tersebut mengenalkan single pertama yang bertajuk Up in The Air.

Single andalan mereka masih mengandalkan semangat antemik yang sangat bersemangat, lengkap dengan gimmick chant yang bergemuruh akan kali ini dibalut dengan sentuhan elektro-pop yang catchy. Secara umum Up in The Air mengandung komposisi formula ala rock-alternative yang kental. Beat drum masih menggebu dan bergemuruh sementara gitar elektrik masih menghadirkan rif-rif yang kencang.

Akan tetapi yang harus dicermati, bagaimana elektro-pop mengambil alih dasar bentukan lagunya. Beat drum yang bergemuruh adalah hasil olahan mesih yang terkadang didistorsi yang menimbulkan efek industrial. Ini yang menjadikan Up in The Air terdengar lebih "nge-pop" dari single-single 30 Seconds to Mars terdahulu. Tidak hanya nge-pop, namun juga dance-able.

Over all, it's a catchy song. Masih terdengar cukup 30 Second to Mars-ish. Vokal Leto pun masih cukup lantang. Gegap gempita dan bergemuruh. Menarik jika ini yang menjadi pilihan mereka untuk album terbaru mereka tersebut.

Berbicara soal gimmick, lagunya diluncurkan melalui SpaceX CRS-2 dan dibuat tersedia untuk para kru Expedition 34 dan juga Expedition 35 crew di International Space Station untuk diputar pada tanggal 4 Maret.

LYRIC

Oh oh oh oh oh, Whoa

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh, Whoa

Oh oh oh oh oh

I've been up in the air, out of my head,

Stuck in a moment of emotion I destroyed.

Is this the end I feel?

Up in the air, fucked up our life,

All of the laws I broke and loves that I've sacrificed.

Is this the end?

I'll wrap my hands around your neck so tight with love, love.

A thousand times I tempted fate.

A thousand times I played this game.

A thousand times that I have said,

Today, today, today.

Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh

Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh

I've been up in the air lost in the night.

I wouldn't trade it all for your life.

You lust for my life.

Is this the end?

Hey!

You were the love of my life, the darkness, the light.

This is a portrait of a tortured you and I.

Is this the, is this the, is this the end?

I'll wrap my hands around your neck so tight with love, love, love.

A thousand times I tempted fate.

A thousand times I played this game.

A thousand times that I have said,

Today, today, today.

Whoa

A thousand times I tempted fate (whoa)

A thousand times I played this game (whoa)

A thousand times that I have said (whoa),

Today, today, today.

Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh

Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh

Oh (today) oh (today) oh (today) oh (today) oh (today) oh (today) oh (today)

I've been up in the air.

Is this the end I feel?

Up in the air, chasing a dream so real.

I've been up in the air.

I'll wrap my hands around your neck, neck, neck, neck (is this the end I feel?)

Up in the air, chasing a dream, chasing a dream.

Take no more!

Take no more!

Take no more!

I'll take no more!

A thousand times I tempted fate (take no more)

A thousand times I played this game (take no more)

A thousand times that I have said (take no more),

Today, today, today.

Whoa

Today, today, today, today (I'll wrap my hands around your neck, neck with love, love.)

Today, today, today, today (I'll wrap my hands around your neck, neck with love, love.)

I'll wrap my hands around your neck, neck, neck, neck, neck, neck, neck, neck.

I'll wrap my hands around your neck so tight with love, love.
