I Wanna Get To Know You [Janet Jackson Edit]

The debut single from LAPIS – a singer, musician, and producer from Auckland, New Zealand

Maxi-single with instrumental and single edit out now: freshselects.bandcamp.com/album/blue-in-orange

"I recorded the first version of this song in 2013 when I was turning 18. I came back more than once over the next 1-2 years. 

At the 2:57 mark I back come in to look back on what happened from a different perspective. In doing so I was able to process the story, that period in my life again, on a deeper level. 

At 2:57 it is like a reality check.. “Shit, this is what was really going down..” And the rest of the song – with the extended dance section and the darker tone – is really a grieving process, both for what was, and the dreams that never really were – the dreams of idealised love that never held any water. It is also a catharsis and transformation, of the pain and confusion. 

This reflective and retrospective process, captured as ‘Blue in Orange’ allowed me to tie this up and move on –> from blue into orange!"

"Girl, I left you a note, 
What it said - I don’t even know 
But can't you reply? 
Even if you say no...

Girl, I left you a note, 
What it said - I don’t even know 
But can't you reply? 
Even if you say no...

See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone..
See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone.. 
See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone.. 
See my rap game counting down, all along, all alone..

Ooh, ooh, ooh, my love 

Girl, I left you a letter
What it said - I didn't know better.
What I wrote - down I blush, 
Now when I think about it.

Girl, I wrote you a play, 
Starring me and you in the way, 
In which I thought it should be. 
But I didn't give you no say..."

Lyrics:

Oh, why do people do nothing?
Scrambling to take
Not thinking what to bring

Oh, why am I still scared to share?
Catch me acting fake
Protecting my estate
I’m scared
 
And I should really bite my tongue
Run outside and jump
Jump into the lake
 
And you’ve got everything to give
No need to be afraid
It’s not what it is,
It’s how it’s made
 
Before, before, before…
What’s going on…?

2,000 years ago
Before, before, before…

Ascension…
Jump into the lake

Run outside and jump
Jump into the lake

LAPIS "Why am I still scared to share?"

Stream 'My Visitor' : https://boysage.fanlink.to/myvisitor
Pre-save next single : https://backl.ink/142974683

No one can remember how it started, least of all Kazunari Muto himself, but amongst the rage towards the desolation of human life that has been bubbling in him for ten years or more, Muto’s bedroom recording project, under the moniker of Boys Age, has been steadily creating a genre of music he calls “HolLo-FI”. “HolLo-FI”, a term coined by Muto, combining the words “hollow” and “lo-fi”, embodies the work of an artist coming full circle to where he began, finding an esoteric universe of musical possibilities that he was unable to touch in his earlier works. Still recording in a small thin-walled apartment in suburban Saitama, his music keeps following the path his recent singles pointed at, towards a much deeper, darker place than ever before.

'My Visitor' is the first single of the new Boys Age album coming later this year, stay tuned...

Boys Age - My Visitor

say something
so i know what this is 
say something 
seal your words with a kiss 

say something
i don’t know what you want
say something
stop acting nonchalant 

well
i’m not one to play games, no
i like when your feelings show 
hold me tight
in your arms tonight
tell me in the morning 
things will be alright

i could love you if you say so
but first i have got to know
do you see me when i am out of sight?

maybe i should give it time
i just wish that you were mine
i wish that you were mine

say something
wear your heart on your sleeve
say something
so i don’t think you’ll leave

say something 
if i should let you go
say something 
it hurts more not to know

maybe i should give it time
i just wish that you were mine
i wish that you were mine

Wish That You Were Mine
