Consequence

The Notwist's "Consequence"



WHY IT MADE THE LIST:
I originally heard this song while watching the movie Push and thinking, "I kind of like that song! I should find it!" So after a little research, I happily found it! The gentle beat of the drum and the beautiful guitar arrangement seem to regulate any movement that I might be making at the time to fit into the song. It's a nice relaxing song with a dreamlike quality that flits through the mind and enters all corners and drowns out everything else. (Well, that's what usually happens when I listen to it... results may vary...) I'll be honest, the meaning of the lyrics escapes me, but the music and voice are so mesmerizing that I had to add it to the list.

Lyrics:
You're the color
You're the movement
And the spin

Never
Could it stay with me
The whole day long

Fail with consequence
Lose with eloquence
And smile

I'm not in this movie
I'm not in this song

Never
Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love

You're the color
You're the movement
And the spin

Never
Could it stay with me
The whole day long

Fail with consequence
Lose with eloquence
And smile

You're not in this movie
You're not in this song

Never
Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love

I've heard other people say they aren't sure about the lyrics as well. The lyrics are simply bout Love - you know what makes the world go round ( movement & spin )& it's what makes the world beautiful ( color ) Although people ( myself included ) look for it in movies and music - love is actually found in the giving of the self to others. Love is a call to action ( if one is paralyzed it's not love ) love is free will ( not hypnotized response ) If love fails there are dire consequences - but when it loses itself for another it speaks most eloquently.

About Us

What is music without words?
Even those songs that leave us with nothing but different sounds,they still paint a picture in our minds and hearts,leaving behind a legacy, a story
once heard.An impression is made and there's no going back

Dj Dostoy believed in a man's words and felt for his stories
so he chose to stand behind his name, Dostoyevsky. His words portrayed human nature and emotion in both suffering and joy. Lyrics and music in songs also strive to portray these elements of life.

For Madame Cymbeline, music is an expression of something deeper and
something felt but not always readily understood.
She chose a name that came from a man who created something deeper
and full of passion and which is commonly misunderstood, Shakespheare.

What we like most about music is that it is not always what it seems. To one person a song could mean something entirely different than it does to the person standing beside them. Music is abut life and a reaction to living that life. Perhaps a chance to let go and be free to feel something different or a time to reflect on the past while looking ahead to the future.

This can be done through rock, pop, classical, indie, broadway musical, and all kinds of genres. All of which will probably make it on here.


This is our music.

Enjoy,

DJ Dostoy and Madam Cybeline
