new from Destinee and AdeleOriginally Posted by: snap_itshannah   TITLE: Tapdance
BY: Adele Gillet
GENRE: Indie rock, emo, alternative rock
LABEL: Liberation/Nomad RecordsAdele takes the wheel in the writing of this song, showing the almost drastic difference between her writing and Destinee's. Destinee's music can said to be much more upbeat and happy, but Adele has the ability to properly mix their voices together for the perfect sound. This song is considerably slower than the others, which seems odd since the other songs deal with much more depressing topics than this one does. While the other songs mostly deal with topics of loneliness and pain, this song is much more about the daydreams you have to get away from the world, and the people that you think about when you have those daydreams. Adele and Destinee's voices act as one voice throughout the song, with Adele singing the lower notes and Destinee singing the higher notes. Throughout the song, they often finish each other's scentences or sing parts of each other's, giving the song a feeling of one person singing with a very large range. The song starts with a single acoustic guitar, played by Adele, who has played for years. There is a thirty second intro played only by the guitar, introducing both the slow rhythm of the song and the depressing state of it. When Adele and Destinee begin singing, their voices are strong, but emotionless, almost monotone. In the third verse, a piano, played by Destinee, begins to play along with the guitar. The piano plays the same slow rhythm, but at a much higher note. The guitar and piano seem to be almost mimicing their player's voices as they go on. When Destinee and Adele sing together, their voices go up, Destinee's voice remaining a very high soprano while Adele takes on a high alto sound, both of their instruments mimicing that as well. They continue on this same rhythm until they are about to begin their seventh verse, beginning with "And I scrape you." There's a break between the sixth and seventh verse, where the piano and guitar suddenly are joined by a drum, with speeds up the rhythm quite a bit, although the guitar and piano's melodies have not changed. When Destinee and Adele sing with the drums, their voices are full of emotion and strength. The song goes out with a blast as they sing with all their hearts the next lines. Destinee sings, "What if that's true, and I'm the only one who knows it?" and there's a crash of the cymbals as the song fades out, her voice fading out with it.Destinee

BothYou get back here
You do it slowly
Do it calmlyNow don't be so angryI have somethingI've been chasing every daySince I started walking
It just sits there
In the distanceIt always flirts with the tips of my fingers
You thought that
You could love it
Until it touched you
And now you just want to stop itWell, I'm sorry
It's not likelyIt was here when you got hereAnd it'll be here when you're not here anymoreAnd then some days
I get lucky
I can focus and things are less shakyAnd I scrape you
Off the pale moon
And I slip you
Into soft shoes
And we tapdance
To a jazz band
On a cruise ship
Near an islandAnd my hair's upI wear a short dress
And a wide smile
Our movements are carelessIt's a daydreamI keep having
To make the clocks moveWhile I'm workingOr a bad jokeI can't sit throughAnd I smile because I feel like I have toBut if you'd look under the table
You'd see I'm playing with my knife
I'm slicing stripes into my kneecapsAnd I'm struggle just to come off as politeWe could be a snapshot framed and hung like a portraitWhat if that's true, and I'm the only one who knows it?SOUNDS LIKE:
