BIKINIS & MARTINIS "Wearing designer, uh, smoking marijuana Fill my skies with stars and stripes, so Americana And I don't see the fuss, what's all the drama? We filled our glasses up, drinking all summer Then you carried me back, turned off all the li-igh-ights Probably made too much sound during the lo-o-ong nights Bottle of the finest at our bedside And then you spun me round, took me on a ride Yeah, you already... kno-o-o-o-ow What I'm thinking, we've gotta... go-o-o-o-o We've been taking things... slo-o-o-o-ow Now we're full speed ahead, we're gonna... go-o-o-o-o ............... RUNAWAY "Bottle of whisky and an open road We're looking to get the hell outta here ASAP My hand in yours, adrenaline in the air Let's just slip away tonight, forget about everyone else Run wild for the night, foot on the pedal and we'll be outta sight Don't ask when we'll be back, but just to let you know My phone's off and I'm fading away for a little while For now, I'm living under the sheets in a presidential suite And even if we never find our way back home again It's enough to just have you near To imagine a time where you're not there Oh baby, don't tell me, it's a life I fear" ............... GLUE & GLITTER "When I'm asleep, I always look forward to waking up As long as you're next to me, holding me tight When we fight, I always look forward to the making up Cause look at how we are when we stick together Me and you, we sparkle like glue and glitter After all this time together, and we're at our best Now look at how we shine brighter than all the rest Like glue and glitter, glue and glitter, glue and glitter Look at how we sparkle like glue and glitter Glue and glitter, glue and glitter, glue and glitter Now look at how we sparkle like..." ............... HANDS UP (SHOT THE SHERIFF) "Don't show me mercy, I knew exactly what I was doing When I got that gun out, I knew exactly who I was shooting Aimed for the head, you've made me such a mess After you told me it was nothing more, nothing less Maybe I fell in love, you laughed once I confessed Got it off my chest, maybe I turned out to be obsessed Now what have I got to show for it all? I lick my lips to taste our final kiss Staring over a bloody man on the floor, handcuffs around my wrists Grab your clothes and just to try to walk out of that door I'm about to be a criminal, I can't help it if you leave me wanting more Bullet fires from the gun, and your life flashes before your eyes Oh baby, you shoulda just told me pretty, pretty lies" ............... DISTANCE "The closer we become, the more it hurts Whenever I'm alone, and it's impossible to see you The only thing I can do is cling to your words Looking out the window as if you're in my view When I wake, I hope that you're gonna be there Deep down, I know I'm a foolish dreamer But it soothes me to imagine you here And so I've gotta continue to be a believer Before I run off the edge off my mind Yeah, before I fall off the edge of my mind Oh, I'm falling off the edge of my mind, I'm slipping I'm going crazy, heart rate increasing, sweat dripping A beautiful illusion in my sight to help me tonight And for just this moment, it's all feeling so right" ............... SOMEBODY LIKE ME "And I do everything I can to bring you all the happiness But sometimes everything just isn't enough Studied my attractiveness, drowning in my unworthiness Maybe you'll decide it's time when things grow tough Cause it's not easy fighting through the battles And sometimes it's easier just to give it all up Sometimes you can be hurt so much and become so fragile That you're just no longer able to cover it all up Yeah, don't leave me out in the dark, out in the cold Just think about how we could be, a real story to be told But it's true, not everyone is meant to be together Love will never be forever, feelings are just like the weather January to December, do you want to be a member?" ............... WE'LL BREAK TIME "When you turn around, it's gonna be me you find I'll be the road to guide you if you're blind I'm the shadow behind you when you walk Me and you, we'll break time An open hand for you to take when you struggle An open heart for you to clear all your troubles And when it's a race against the clock Together, we'll break time Don't tell me that forever is impossible Love makes us crazy, and maybe it's possible That we can go the extra mile And our time together will never expire" ............... DANCE OFF THE TEARS "Lost cause in the corner with a handful of pills Sipping on a water bottle full of vodka She's crying cause she doesn't like how reality feels Intoxicated while she sways to the sounds of Nirvana Oh, maybe the pressure's just too much to handle? She wishes she was just that little bit stronger Oh, she never wanted to end up as another example Of those of those famous girls who just can't take it any longer Her favourite albums lay by her side Next to the alcohol and blonde hair dye She likes to mask her true identity Just to find her own idea of serenity Lays there alone, fighting off her fears Tells herself she'll dance off the tears Music runs through her fragile little veins Singing those songs to try and numb the pain Hoping it'll all go away-ay-ay-ay" ............... WAITING GAME "I wish life was just a little more unpredictable Everyone's just a little too cynicle But I guess it's with good reason, people are bitches And friends eventually turn into backstabbing snitches It'll be a miracle, but we've all just gotta believe That there's still something that this world can achieve Look up at the stars, and ain't it a shame We're still playing the waiting game, waiting game We're all just playing the waiting game, waiting game We're all just playing the waiting game, waiting game We're all just playing the waiting game, waiting game We're all just playing the waiting game, waiting game" ............... ALBUM REVEAL BEGINS TOMORROW

It's like we're all turning into alcoholics! I know I had my worries beforehand about this album, I didn't feel like I would connect with it as much as Open Heart Surgery, plainly because of there will be more upbeat tracks. However these album previews have wiped that assumption from my mind, this has potential to better OHS! Really looking forward to this album dropping and in particular, 'Distance'. So much good albums dropping at the minute, I love it!

Nadia speaks the lyrics in a quirky, humorous tone to mock her own admitted embarrassing drunken behaviour that the lyrics revolve around. With a summery guitar-led beat that's one of the most mainstream sounding on the album, Nadia's comment about the first half of Hera being upbeat and catchy is definitely no lie. Her vocals glide perfectly over the chorus where she lets her powerful voice shine for the only time she sings in the song, contrasting well with the more laid back style of the rest of the song. Nadia: "With the more indie influences that were brought in on the last album, I knew I was going to alienate a lot of my fan base, but I think a lot more of those fans will enjoy this song. It wasn't a conscious decision to make a pop song because I wanted those fans back on my side, it was just what I was feeling at the time, I felt that I needed to poke fun at myself a little bit, and what better way to do it than in a light hearted song like this? I don't take myself too seriously, and I can admit that me and alcohol just should not go together, it's an embarrassing sight and embarrassing things happen. I wrote this song in April, and it was one of the last tracks I wrote for the album. Those closest to me will know the reason behind this song, but it's all in good humour and shows that it's all in the past. It's a new mission of mine to cut down on alcohol, despite the many alcohol references on the album... I guess you could say it's my way of getting it out of my system." SOUNDS SIMILAR TO: "Drunk" Eyes open, and there's my clothes on the floor The last time something like this happened, I swore That I'd never drink again and damn, it happened again But last night, it didn't seem like such a bad idea then A few glasses turned into a few bottles, I can't remember the rest But the hangover this morning is really putting me to the test I'm a drunken fool, and now I'm paying for it Pain in the head, and that ain't my lover in my bed Whoever invented aspirin, I'm truly grateful You're making this all just a little less painful This morning, all I see are empty bottles on the table So close to being unfaithful, I'm forever shameful Tonight, I'm getting drunk, gonna do something I'll forever regret Tonight, I'm getting drunk, do something I'll never forget So when you ask me in the morning what the fuck I was thinking It didn't seem like such a bad idea back when I just kept on drinking And tonight, I'm breaking the rules, gonna pull some crazy stunts Tonight, all I'm ever gonna be is drunk, drunk, drunk I'm ashamed, had to call you up, you didn't give me the blame If I could, I would have gone back and poured it all down the drain Cause this morning, I'm all undressed and I look a mess And the two of us are embarrassed to death Swore that I'd behave, but I just couldn't control it And I'm a mess, I hold my hands up and admit That I'm a lightweight who just can't handle it I'm a drunken fool, and now I'm paying for it Pain in the head, and that ain't my lover in my bed Whoever invented aspirin, I'm truly grateful You're making this all just a little less painful This morning, all I see are empty bottles on the table So close to being unfaithful, I'm forever shameful Tonight, I'm getting drunk, gonna do something I'll forever regret Tonight, I'm getting drunk, do something I'll never forget So when you ask me in the morning what the fuck I was thinking It didn't seem like such a bad idea back when I just kept on drinking And tonight, I'm breaking the rules, gonna pull some crazy stunts Tonight, all I'm ever gonna be is drunk, drunk, drunk Just for that one night, if only alcohol was banned Cause now, I'd do anything but to have another drink in my hand Just for that one night, if only alcohol never existed Cause it just seemed to make everything twisted People end up looking more attractive than they really are So you walk away arm in arm with someone ugly from the bar And when you're that intoxicated, so damn wasted It's just better than anything you've ever tasted Tonight, I'm getting drunk, gonna do something I'll forever regret Tonight, I'm getting drunk, do something I'll never forget So when you ask me in the morning what the fuck I was thinking It didn't seem like such a bad idea then when I just kept on drinking And tonight, I'm breaking the rules, gonna pull some crazy stunts Tonight, all I'm ever gonna be is drunk, drunk, drunk

Loaded with catchy hooks and stuttered vocals, it definitely gives "Drunk" a run for its money for the most radio-friendly song on the album. Sonically, it's got a more European vibe to it, taking on a more electro-pop sound, blending in very light hints of dubstep and adding a slight reggae feel to it. It's likely to be the one to become your guilty pleasure from the album, and it's definitely the type of track you could imagine being played at a holiday resort by the pool. Nadia: "I was scared about this song, as well as 'Drunk', because I feel like I built up a solid reputation with the last album; I didn't want people to think I had suddenly turned into a manufactured puppet who was forced to go back to pop and was no longer making credible music. I picked up a lot of new fans from the last album who probably won't enjoy these tracks as much, but the second half of the record will be more to their taste. I've had so much input for this album, and it's these more fun, carefree songs that I wanted to make to show where I'm at in my life. I wrote this just after coming home from Cabo, I just felt really calm and peaceful after an amazing holiday. I knew how I wanted it to sound from the moment I wrote it, thankfully, we managed to capture that in the end. It sounds just like the perfect summer anthem that I wanted, I wanted to listen to it and have it take me back to those amazing moments when I was on holiday, and we achieved that." SOUNDS SIMILAR TO: "Bikinis & Martinis" We'll be singing woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh You got me singing woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh If only everyday were a day like this Long days on the beach, getting martini flavoured kisses Lipstick on your cheek, you play it cool Laugh it off, acting like lovestruck fools Your hand in mine, we intertwine You give me that look, and I can tell We're about to throw our halo's into hell Key in the door, it's like we're racing against time We're like two criminals running from a crime And the risk of getting caught makes it so much more fun Come, lean in closer under burning candlelight, I said come And we'll be locked in our room from noon till night Yeah, you already... kno-o-o-o-ow What I'm thinking, we've gotta... go-o-o-o-o We've been taking things... slo-o-o-o-ow Now we're full speed ahead, we're gonna... go-o-o-o-o What happened to the times that we spent under the covers? Remember when we couldn't keep our hands off one another? You in those shorts, and me in that bright bikini I'm longing for the taste of those sweet martinis And you've got me craving for an escape from today Just for a little while, thinking of our getaway You got me dreaming of bikinis and martinis Yeah, you got me dreaming of bikinis and martinis Wearing designer, uh, smoking marijuana Fill my skies with stars and stripes, so Americana And I don't see the fuss, what's all the drama? We filled our glasses up, drinking all summer Then you carried me back, turned off all the li-igh-ights Probably made too much sound during the lo-o-ong nights Bottle of the finest at our bedside And then you spun me round, took me on a ride Yeah, you already... kno-o-o-o-ow What I'm thinking, we've gotta... go-o-o-o-o We've been taking things... slo-o-o-o-ow Now we're full speed ahead, we're gonna... go-o-o-o-o And you already... kno-o-o-o-ow We're not gonna do this... slo-o-o-o-ow Loved you from the st-a-a-art You are the owner of my he-a-a-art What happened to the times that we spent under the covers?

With a light and airy feel to it, Nadia keeps the mood high for the first half of Hera, the sound fitting perfectly to the lyrical content that deals with escaping from your stresses for a little while with the one you love. Featuring a sweet-sounding 80's inspired synth-led beat that glides smoothly throughout the song, the song further shows that Nadia is great at adapting to a variety of genres, whether it be rock/indie or a cute pop track like this one. Combined with Nadia's soft, gentle vocals, "Runaway" is a nice and relaxed track, but still with a little bit of kick to it that gives it an upbeat feel that you could dance to. Nadia: "Aside from the two singles, 'Runaway' has to be my favourite on the first half of the record. Me and Logan were gathering ideas and it originally started off as this really stripped back acoustic guitar track, but I didn't feel like it captured the mood of the song well enough. A few days later, I had this sudden melody just come into my head and luckily enough, Logan totally got me and brought it to life and it turned into this amazing 80's throwback that I had in my head all along. And there's nothing greater than having ideas in your head come to life exactly as you had hoped. This is the ultimate escapism track, one of those songs to just take you far away from your troubles, and I hope people love the peaceful, upbeat vibe to it as much as I do." SOUNDS SIMILAR TO: "Runaway" Bottle of whisky and an open road We're looking to get the hell outta here ASAP My hand in yours, adrenaline in the air Let's just slip away tonight, forget about everyone else Run wild for the night, foot on the pedal and we'll be outta sight Don't ask when we'll be back, but just to let you know My phone's off and I'm fading away for a little while For now, I'm living under the sheets in a presidential suite And even if we never find our way back home again It's enough to just have you near To imagine a time where you're not there Oh baby, don't tell me, it's a life I fear I just wanna runaway, getaway Don't know where, we don't even care Wind in my hair, feels like I'm walking on air And I just wanna runaway, getaway Leave everyone behind, your lips give me such a rush We're driving blind, going wherever the road takes us Let's just slip away forever, there's no one better Than you, yeah, I could get lost forever with you Take the wheel, this world is ours Let's jump in your car and go wherever, whenever Cause I wanna show you how much you mean to me We don't even have to tell a soul, all I know is I'm ready to go We've got cash to blow, we shoulda done this long ago Just get lost with each other, we don't ever have to look back As long as it's with you, it's a place that I can call home Rooftop down, let's sing aloud, let our wild hearts roam La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la I just wanna runaway, getaway Don't know where, we don't even care Wind in my hair, feels like I'm walking on air And I just wanna runaway, getaway Leave everyone behind, your lips give me such a rush We're driving blind, going wherever the road takes us Let's just slip away forever, there's no one better Than you, yeah, I could get lost forever with you So take my hand, tonight, I'm gonna make you understand That all I care about is running free, with you beside me Let's live a little, let's runaway, getaway And we'll wake up in a new place everyday Ready to do it all over again And even if we never find our way back home again It's enough to just have you near To imagine a time where you're not there Oh baby, don't tell me, it's a life I fear I just wanna runaway, getaway Don't know where, we don't even care Wind in my hair, feels like I'm walking on air And I just wanna runaway, getaway Leave everyone behind, your lips give me such a rush We're driving blind, going wherever the road takes us Let's just slip away forever, there's no one better Than you, yeah, I could get lost forever with you

Although sonically, it's got a slight electro-ballad feel to it that you'd expect from someone along the lines of Robyn. Having a hard-hitting beat behind Nadia's slightly whispered vocals for the verses, the song truly shines when it builds up to the chorus where her vocals become bold and confident. Despite the sound, the message of the song still remains uplifting and joyful, lyrically dealing with the troubles in a relationship and breaking through them to get where you are today. At number six on the track listing, the song takes a perfect place on the album to begin a gentle transition into the second half. Nadia: "I like to call 'Runaway' and 'Glue & Glitter' the two candy-floss tracks on the album, because they're so sickly sweet in both sound and lyrics that they just pair together so well. That's the obvious reason why they come one after the other on the track listing. I think a lot of people in a relationship could relate to this one, because it's natural to hit walls in your relationship, but the important part is breaking those walls and moving past them to get to the point you're at now. It's got a sweet message behind it, about sticking together and continuing to outshine whatever hits you." SOUNDS SIMILAR TO: "Glue & Glitter" It's never easy to find the one to stick by And it's never easy to admit you've told a lie Love's about overcoming every little challenge And fighting through it all, no matter what happens Everyone has highs, everyone has lows And at the end of the day, you're my place to go Run into arms of comfort and a place to find shelter Lips like medicine that'll make me feel better Everyone has ups, everyone has downs And you're that someone that turns my life around Sometimes things ain't perfect, but I know we're strong Like true fighters, we battle and we carry on When I'm asleep, I always look forward to waking up As long as you're next to me, holding me tight When we fight, I always look forward to the making up Cause look at how we are when we stick together Me and you, we sparkle like glue and glitter After all this time together, and we're at our best Now look at how we shine brighter than all the rest Like glue and glitter, glue and glitter, glue and glitter Look at how we sparkle like glue and glitter Glue and glitter, glue and glitter, glue and glitter Now look at how we sparkle like... It's never easy to find the one to stick by And it's never easy to admit you've told a lie Love's about overcoming every little challenge And fighting through it all, no matter what happens When we're low, I always know It's best to wait for the storm to pass Because when we're not falling apart, you ignite a spark From deep inside of me, that's just how our love grows We fill up picture frames, our memories protected by glass That could break so easily just like my heart, I'm like a spirit in the dark Searching for an escape, searching for the light Tell me you're the one who could find it in the night Yeah, you're the only one who could shatter me into pieces Watch me fade, and I'll be glitter no more Yeah, you're the only one who could shatter me into pieces Watch me fade, and I'll be glitter no more When I'm asleep, I always look forward to waking up As long as you're next to me, holding me tight When we fight, I always look forward to the making up Cause look at how we are when we stick together Me and you, we sparkle like glue and glitter After all this time together, and we're at our best Now look at how we shine brighter than all the rest Like glue and glitter, glue and glitter, glue and glitter Look at how we sparkle like glue and glitter Glue and glitter, glue and glitter, glue and glitter Now look at how we sparkle like... When we fuse as one, when I've got you so close I could die happy there and then When I kiss you once, I need to kiss you twice You could easily become my habit I could easily become an addict Said you could easily become my habit I could easily become an addict I just want another dose of you tonight Yeah, I just wanna overdose on you tonight When I'm asleep, I always look forward to waking up As long as you're next to me, holding me tight When we fight, I always look forward to the making up Cause look at how we are when we stick together Me and you, we sparkle like glue and glitter After all this time together, and we're at our best Now look at how we shine brighter than all the rest

It is far too happy for his taste. Cutenandez though, thinks this extremely catchy music. Glue & Glitter is a very cute song, lyrically, and I like the slower tempo it begins to take the record in. I am most looking forward to the second half of the record. The first half all I can smell is, 'hit, hit, hit, hit, hit, hit.' I think I may need to hire Nadia to be my ghostwriter.

You're so gifted at writing fantastic songs back to back. It simply makes me wonder how anyone could ever dislike you with such talents as yours. Keep up the good work. :)

The video has a more raw and home-made feel to it, beginning with a vintage clip of a vinyl record being put on. Random low quality snippets of Nadia performing on stage follow, taken from her current tour with Katie Coyle. Other scenes featuring Nadia follow throughout the video, such as her talking to the camera, as well as her on set of a photo shoot, giving it a slight "day in the life of" feel. However, this contrasts with the vintage stock footage that is chopped up between these clips, taken from the original black and white version of the It's a Wonderful Life film, showing romantic scenes between the characters of George and Mary. Although the video is rather a collection of clips instead of the typical high-budget affair that you'd expect from her, there is some message to be read behind the short pieces of film scenes that are included. Showing the clip of Mary breaking a vinyl record near the end of the video maybe suggests that the song isn't as sweet as Nadia wants you to believe, the vinyl record smashing to the line of "tell me you love me at the end of this song". At the end, Nadia is seen with her dog Boots, simply laughing while the video fades to black. Nadia: "This was probably the video I had the most hands-on approach towards, I came up with the concept and what I wanted to feature in the video, and I edited the whole thing. I think the great thing about a music video is that it can make you see a song in a completely different light, and I wanted to play around with that fact and make people wonder about why certain stuff was put in, and why certain stuff happened in sync with specific lines of the song. I think It's a Wonderful Life is one of those feel good, sweet films, and the clips taken from it suited the song perfectly. Aside from those clips were just random ones of me on tour and on set of a photo shoot and simple stuff like that, they're not completely relevant to the song, but I felt it made for a nice contrast to constantly switch it up from colour to black and white. And why not include myself in the video of my own song? I'm the editor! I know it's a huge difference to the cinematic feel of the videos from the last album, but I felt having a video like this just kept it more real and stayed true to the minimalistic feel of the song."

Dramatically switching up the sound of the heavy electro-pop tinged first half of the record, "Hands Up" sticks out like a sore thumb, but in all the right ways, stopping the album from possibly becoming boring, and it injects life when you were least expecting it. Nadia goes back to her more rockier roots heard on her earlier few solo albums with the track, and it shows she hasn't lost her touch with the alternative rock genre. Nadia has never sounded so American on the verses as she delivers them slightly-talking-slightly-singing in a fast paced manner, whether it's on purpose or not, it certainly gives the track a quirky feel to it. Intense drums begin before the insanely catchy chorus, and her vocals effortlessly soar over a huge razor sharp guitar riff that serves as the noisest moment on the album. Despite the more alternative rock throwback to her earlier material, the song still has that upbeat, slightly pop feel to it that you could expect to hear on the radio, and shows Nadia should maybe stick to this genre for her future material when it works so well for her. Nadia: "I think there always needs to be a moment on an album where you can let your hair down a little and not care so much about explaining a certain meaning behind a song, and this is one of those tracks. I wrote this track one night and I knew it was a little out after I had finished it, especially compared to the rest of the lyrics on this album. Admittedly, I looked back at it and thought 'Wow, did I really write this? I'm one crazy bitch' because it was just totally unexpected, I don't even know why I wrote it! I guess I just felt a little rebellious one night. I called Jared Nevo up who was still on Chaos at that time, I signed Hey Lolita myself so we had definitely spoken before and I knew he was a talented producer, I asked if he'd be willing to work on me with it and he jumped at the chance, and thank god, because it turned out perfectly." SOUNDS SIMILAR TO: "Hands Up (Shot the Sheriff)" Don't cry for me, I made a mistake My heart's just too easy to break I'm a little unhinged, a little off the edge But I've got no excuse for why I shot him in the head I guess I just can't learn to say goodbye I wanted more and more, and how time flies And how it slows in the worst possible times Cause now I'll never see a day again out of this jail Yeah, I was told justice will always prevail Said he liked the smell of my perfume And then we made love in the back of the room Yeah, didn't seem like such a bad idea, back then When he went to go and leave, back when He kissed my lips for the final time And that's when I committed a crime We were bad, baby, we messed around I got too attached and I throw my hands up, up, up That's when I shot the sheriff down, down, down Don't show me mercy, I knew exactly what I was doing When I got that gun out, I knew exactly who I was shooting Aimed for the head, you've made me such a mess After you told me it was nothing more, nothing less Maybe I fell in love, you laughed once I confessed Got it off my chest, maybe I turned out to be obsessed Now what have I got to show for it all? I lick my lips to taste our final kiss Staring over a bloody man on the floor, handcuffs around my wrists Grab your clothes and just to try to walk out of that door I'm about to be a criminal, I can't help it if you leave me wanting more Bullet fires from the gun, and your life flashes before your eyes Oh baby, you shoulda just told me pretty, pretty lies Said he liked the smell of my perfume And then we made love in the back of the room Yeah, didn't seem like such a bad idea, back then When he went to go and leave, back when He kissed my lips for the final time And that's when I committed a crime We were bad, baby, we messed around I got too attached and I throw my hands up, up, up That's when I shot the sheriff down, down, down Told me I was all he ever wanted (So why'd he go to leave?) Now I'm left standing broken hearted (Are you happy with what you achieved?) Tears in my eyes, and he's about to die It's what happens when you make a love sick girl cry Grab your clothes and just to try to walk out of that door I'm about to be a criminal, I can't help it if you leave me wanting more Bullet fires from the gun, and your life flashes before your eyes Oh baby, you shoulda just told me pretty, pretty lies Said he liked the smell of my perfume And then we made love in the back of the room Yeah, didn't seem like such a bad idea, back then When he went to go and leave, back when He kissed my lips for the final time And that's when I committed a crime We were bad, baby, we messed around I got too attached and I throw my hands up, up, up That's when I shot the sheriff down, down, down I got too attached and I throw my hands up, up, up Said I got too attached and I throw my hands up, up, up Yeah, that's when I had to throw my hands up, up, up And that's when I shot the sheriff down, down, down Yeah, that's right, I shot the sheriff down, down, down Edited by user 01 December 2013 23:14:49(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified
