Title: Unorthodox Life
From: Paper Light
Released: July 10, 2015 (Digital/CD) / July 3, 2015 (Stream)
Format: Digital Download / Stream / CD-Single
Recorded: Stockholm (SWE) | Las Vegas (US)
Genre: Pop
Length: 3:15
Label: Warner Music
Writer(s): Medina, Erik Zullo & Max Martin
Producer(s): Shellback & Paul Epworth




Unorthodox Life is a collaboration recorded by Danish-American recording artist Medina and Erik Zullo. The single comes from her Debut Album "Paper Light" which will be released on July 23rd announced via Medina on instagram. The single was released on Streaming services a week before the actual release (July 10th), this is Medina's second attempt to reach the mainstream acceptance she has been working for after her failed attempt "Just Stay" charted low in many countries but sold a significantly large amount thanks to her strong Scandinavian fan base. Medina has also been working on the music video and perhaps a celebrity reality show many of our insider tell us.


The song lyrically is very folkish, Many of the lyrics sound like their telling a story of a warrior couple struggling to find their own love while they fight their own personal demons. The song can possibly be about that since Medina is from Denmark which is the capital of vikings and Medina does have a major viking blood line on her hands, many Danish News agencies have reported before. The lyrics aren't cheesy and are fairly easy to remember and this can potentially be a major hit with the correct promotion.

The songs production came from Swedish pop producer Shellback and British producer Paul Epworth who has joined Medina's production team in Sweden after countless talks between Median and Epworth. Epworth has stated:

Quote:
The song was fairly easy to produce and the vocals were great, I was also intrigued how Medina put so much attention into the production of the song, most artist I work with pre-record their vocals and send them to me where I can synchronize them to the instrumental, but this was fairly weird due to Medina actually being in the studio everyday to work on the track and the album. The album is being produced with great care and the lyrics are of high quality, I'm excited were Medina will end up going and I hope to produce a whole Album with her one day.

In this unsatisfied life, nobody as hope
Always denying just to cope
But you came and changed the scope
To fight, but love the unhopeful
For a life that's undoubtful
You gave a meaning to my life
I Need someone to shine
But be disciplined and not regretful
To join a fight that defines an Unorthodox life

You got the nice eyes, got the nice lips
But do you have the long horns to fight for
I want a type of love, that is climbable
So I can reach the top and be delightful


This unorthodox life, This unorthodox life
Shining into the eye of the man above

(We believe-e-e-eve)
We won't give up
(We achieve-e-e-eve)
For the coming fight
That deprives life, we shall stand above

(We believe-e-e-eve)
This tough love
(We achieve-e-e-eve)

Sometimes I believe I have lost hope
But I come out and fight
For a love that will be delightful
I have found the one that doesn't keep his eyes closed
When the battle and death aren't accountable
We fight together for an unorthodox life
That is never regretful
I will always be the tide
That raise the shores of your life's hope

I got the eyes, I got the lips
I have the long horns to fight for
I got the type of love, that is climbable
So we can reach the top and be delightful


This unorthodox life, This unorthodox life
Shining into the eye of the man above

(We believe-e-e-eve)
We won't give up
(We achieve-e-e-eve)
For the coming fight
That deprives life, we shall stand above

(We believe-e-e-eve)
This tough love
(We achieve-e-e-eve)

The Day comes
Our love has finally perfected
For the ones who doubt it
We came down and shouted
The cry of battle that will start
The fight of an unorthodox life
That will have our hears impacted

This unorthodox life, This unorthodox life
Shining into the eye of the man above
We won't give up
For the coming fight
That deprives life, we shall stand above
This tough love


This unorthodox life, This unorthodox life
Shining into the eye of the man above

(We believe-e-e-eve)
We won't give up
(We achieve-e-e-eve)
For the coming fight
That deprives life, we shall stand above

(We believe-e-e-eve)
This tough love
(We achieve-e-e-eve)
