A song by Brooke Murphy entitled Something That Happened is the subject of my blog today. Created as an entry for the ever popular Minneapolis-based Immersion Composition Society Lodge "Bullet Lodge", this song screams coolness and color. Well thought out, put together well, it for sure has my ears stuck to it.
It is a song about something that happened. Exactly what happened, I dunno. Perhaps you can decifer the words and come up with an explanation. But, as for now, and for me, it is a song about color. I see colors, shapes, textures when I listen to the song. I love the vocals, the drums, how they smack once in a while, and the almost grainy flavor of the piece.
It also has a mucusy, anatomical feeling to it.
Enjoy.
Something That Happened
Lyrics:
Once there were green enzymes in the distance
They were tackling brown proteins and off-white carbohydrates
My pink eyes could see them through the black binoculars
That I held with my yellow hand
And red stomach acid melted down on them
This was the beginning of the end
