because i'm a girl i tend to focus on things that speak more to me when i write about my musings/thinkings/essays etc.
however, one of my FAVORITE bands of the 80s is new musik and this came on while i was cruising the earwaves and reminded me of an amazing moment i found years ago.
back then i found this LIVE VERSION of the song world of water. i don't know what happened on the streaming service i used but something changed within last year or this year and the version is different. the distorted and tweaked out voices aren't a beat off...so when they modulate it, the effect is really weakened because we freakin already hear the regular version on top of it...and i kept looking for this original version i heard years ago but couldn't find it. le sigh.
regardless of that hiccup, these boomers were definately tribe vibes mermaid quirky probably starseeds as well. from the lyrics to the looks to the weird twist and turns and deep philosophical layers to the songs they wrote. and i appreciate all areas of the tribe men women and the third gender/fluid/nonbinaries out there. we all make it work one weirdo at a time.
the cool thing about this song though is truly the video.....i can't do gifs because it's more of the full presentation than little moments.
we start out with an audience member wearing a shirt that says SCENE and boy does it set the whole SCENE of the film.
i mean it doesn't get much cooler than that. this boomer knew what was up.
starting out with whack a doodle whimsical childish keyboard music and that quirky ass smile.. and why are we all in lab coats??? not quite sure but obviously whatever journey we're going, it's going to get good. strap in mutha fucka.
the body bob, i resonate. some people call it hyperfocus, some people call it a 'tsim' all i know it's a deep feell good in the body where you just gotta rock super fast and get super zoned into whatever it is that's going on. right now it's the vibe and the music. same dude, same.
this is the part of the tribe that tries to blend in with normies and be atypical......which is always an emphasis of try and that another weirdo with this frequency and energy will sniff you out in seconds ma boi. but cool attempt sort of vibe i get from this.
at this point of the video it always becomes a tag yourself, who is you in here and i'm always this weird ass piano guy. doing the most, making the whackiest of faces, being the most LOUD in the room, and bein the most spastic super in the moment super in the zone in my own little world thing.
salute to you.
because ain't no way you need to lean all the way back just pressing your fingers on a key like that..but i respect and acknowledge the commitment to the wonder and the intensity.
and then the camera zooms in on the drummer and the intensity of his eyes is just priceless. i'm sure he was not even thinking about it when they did it..but capturing the awkwardness and focus is just what people of this vibe/frequency do me included. this is just how we be often fucking awkward but dedicated to the cause.
at this point as i'm reviewing the play by play of this glorious video i realize there are gifs to be made and had and shared to highlight the guys of the soul tribe. and here they are.

and then the best part is, if littletwinstarspeace was a 15 second clip...what would she be like? this..this is who i am in 15 seconds or less.

if i was a guy...i'd be this keyboard guy right here.
but i'm also the keyboard guy at this moment..the focus is supposed to be on the lead singer..but instead the keyboard guy is feeling the vibes and the moment so much he's wilidin out in the background..and even when the camera closes up on the lead singer you can still see a crack of the keyboard guy in the corner cause he's just doin the most livin his life obvious to everything.
salute to my mirror.

i'm sure at this point some people are watching this thinking is piano guy ok?
oh he's more than ok. dude is riding the energetic frequency channel plugged in seeing in his eyes some technicolor dreamworld that the viewer has no idea is going on. he's living his best life and i applaud him for that.
really this video is such a gem a deserves as usual way more views on the tube than it has. i also contest that if the sunglasses bass player was a normie that at least to me he keeps trying to give off no wayyyyyyy he'd be gravitating amongst the misfits this close. the frequency levels would be too disjointed for them to be around each other.

the lyrics are great too. i akin it to the surface level of what i know about the dora animated movie..or that fish movie..the just keep swimming one. my little girl isn't interested in animation nor kids shows of that nature so i tend to be not up or engaged in something i'm not into. i know it was very popular but i just know the peripheral of it.
but it gives the original just keep swimming and the journey through the ocean of life and even through some of the challenges, unseen, unknowns...no matter what happens as it says you'll stilllllllll uh sur vivaaa veee.
the additional words to try to imitate the modulation.
"These waters have frozen
Can't break the ice no more
It's raining so hard now
Can't seem to find a shore
World of water
Where you swim for the other side
World of water
But you're swimming against the tide
This all goes so much deeper
Than some would like to say
Soaked in this world of water
Until it's washed away
World of water
Where you swim for the other side
World of water
But you're swimming against the tide
World of water
You can drown but you still survive
No colour no feeling
No time to sit around
No living no dying
No one here to be found
No entry no exit
I like to be beside the sea
The tide comes in once more but
I'm safe on higher ground
The water here still rising
It's come to drag me down
World of water
Where you swim for the other side
World of water
But you're swimming against the tide
World of water
You can drown but you still survive
World of water
Where you swim for the other side
World of water
But you're swimming against the tide
World of water
You can drown but you still survive"
so a little more rare moment on my little space of reddit to shout out to the male mermaid alien energy out there and namaste to them.
i don't have a guy gif or video that i've made that i feel really reflect this so no intro meme or gif at the moment.
