Fresh Find Review: “Taking Me Down” by Samantha Rae – | Rock Song
Music Review:
“Το Taking Me Down της Samantha Rae δεν ζητά την προσοχή σου — την αρπάζει. Η ροκ ενέργεια ξεσπά με μια αίσθηση ελεγχόμενης αταξίας, ενώ τα φωνητικά κινούνται με ευκίνητη, σχεδόν ακροβατική ροή, ισορροπώντας ανάμεσα σε τόλμη και αυτοπεποίθηση. Υπάρχει μια ωμή ειλικρίνεια στον τρόπο που ξεδιπλώνεται το κομμάτι, σαν εξομολόγηση που μετατρέπεται σε κραυγή απελευθέρωσης.Η μελωδία, ζωντανή και αιχμηρή, ανεβάζει την αδρεναλίνη χωρίς να θυσιάζει τη δομή της. Ο ρυθμός, κεφάτος αλλά στιβαρός, λειτουργεί σαν καταλύτης: μετατρέπει την εσωτερική ένταση σε κίνηση, σε παρόρμηση για επανεκκίνηση. Είναι από εκείνα τα τραγούδια που δεν συνοδεύουν απλώς μια αλλαγή· τη σηματοδοτούν.”

Lyrics of Samantha Rae – Taking Me Down
Woke up fine Monday morning
Thoughts filled up inside your head
Setting me up without a warning
When you said, when you said
You put the hurt on me you know you might be taking me down
You say you wanna be free but you might be taking me down
I never had a prayer without you
Never had a plan to hurt you, desert you, or wind up being alone
I never had a chance to see through
Never want to be left alone
Won’t you come back home
When you’re gone I know you’re checked out
Feels like you ain’t coming back
All it takes is just a second
Just like that, just like that
You put the hurt on me you know you might be taking me down
You say you wanna be free but you might be taking me down
I never had a prayer without you
Never had a plan to hurt you, desert you, or wind up being alone.
I never had a chance to see through
Never want to be left alone
Won’t you come back home
I don’t wanna hurt you when you go
Just wanna be there in your light
I don’t wanna hurt ya when you go
Turn around
Won’t you come back down
I never had a prayer without you
Never had a plan to hurt you, desert you, or wind up being alone
I never had a chance to see through
Never want to be left alone
Won’t you come back home
I never had a prayer without you
Never had a plan to hurt you, desert you, or wind up being alone
I never had a chance to see through
Never want to be left alone
Won’t you come back home
Come back home
