Overall Comment
MARTINA:
"Each time I used to think about releasing a solo record, I always wanted it to be like this one. It is the sort of music that I love, the music that makes me dream. I like dreaming and it sets me free since it lets me escape from pain or from things I don't feel good about. In fact, there is only one song on the record that is about pain and is actually a song that keeps my feet on the ground, and it is the opening one - "Fairytale". It is about how much facing reality can be hard and just makes us escape into our dreams, which is why it opens the album. It also has one of those dramatic melodies you do not easily forget.
The other songs have more positive sounds and each one is different from each other, despite the cohesive sound that you can hear for the whole record. I do not have any favourite since they all mean something to me and I am sure that people who love retro music will enjoy this, even if it has a Pop sound, but I am sure that will only make it easier for everyone to like and enjoy their listening of the tracks, which is what I hope and want."



Track by track coming soon.

Fairytale
Motown, Ballad
Track 1
Written by Martina Downtown & Produced by Alicia Lena

The Song

It's a slow and emotional song, with some bitter and dramatic melodies that makes it the perfect opening track for the album. The song sounds very inspired by the '60s old sound with strings and horns being the leading instruments.
Martina's vocals are smooth and soft, but get melancholic through the chorus and in the post-chorus, where she hits the highest notes. The song gets the most intense and emotional in the bridge and frees itself of all the tension in the ending line, which is sang by Martina softly and in a exhausted, which represents her being tired of pain.



FAIRYTALE
Stars, so silent in the sky
Always there, waiting for us to fly
But then, we can't do it because
A dream is what an illusion becomes

Fear, here it comes with the truth
That hurts us, kills us inside
And so, there is nothing left to do
When you know how much pain is true

Shattered Dreams
No Happy Ending
This Is The Real Fairytale
It's Real Life


Oh oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh


Time, An excuse to get back what you lose
But when you do, you do
It will never come back
Nothing is meant to be forever like that

You, and I
Together, we wanted to make it
But we didn't know
We had to play the destiny's show

Shattered Dreams
No Happy Ending
This Is The Real Fairytale
It's Real Life


Oh oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh


With all our dreams over, turned into illusions
Turned into pain
All we can do is to hope and pray
But we will never forget


Shattered Dreams
No Happy Ending
This Is The Real Fairytale
It's Real Life


Oh oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh


The real fairytale, the real life

Beat sounds like:


COMMENT

MARTINA
"The opening track is probably the absolute gem of the album. I just love it a lot and is one of the songs that mean the most to me, since it helped me through the lonely time that came when I broke up with my boyfriend the last year because of the Teen Titans' world tour. When I wrote this song, I was so disappointed from life and everything, despite being in a band with some lovely and amazing friends and having my family always with me. I saw everything in black, even the most obvious white things. Love means a lot to me in my life and breaking up was for me like failing as a person and it definately was a nightmare that came true.
When I was choosing among the songs I wanted to record for the album, this one obviously came first because, like I said, when I wrote it I felt like I was freeing my soul of one of the heaviest pains I've had. Alicia did a wonderful job with the backing track also and when I explained her how I wanted it to be, how I felt the song, she immediately understood me."
