Nobody Understands: An epic tribute to the 2000s alternative/emo/party/rock bands of the era. F87 teams up with the fictitious SKU293 to create a classic tale of a young man who's ever-misunderstood by his parents, his girlfriend, pretty much everyone.

Recorded, mixed and mastered by F87 with special guest vocalist Marco Corva using Macs running Reason Studios 13 and lots of VSTs from Arturia, Waves Audio, Neural DSP, UVI, Native Instruments, IK Multimedia, Toontrack, Impact Soundworks and more.

Nobody Understands

Text:
Verse 1:
Kicked the dust off my busted wheels,
Got a full tank and a head that feels —
Like fire in a broken frame,
I’m born for noise, not for fame.

Pre-Chorus:
They told me slow down, find a plan,
But you can’t cage a rock’n’roll man!

Chorus:
I ride the line — between sin and soul,
Burnin’ gas, takin’ control.
Don’t need no crown, don’t need no sign,
I’m free tonight — I ride the line!

(solo)

Verse 2:
Devil’s laughin’ on the radio,
Angels watchin’ but they don’t know.
Every red light’s just a dare,
If you ain’t scared — you’re halfway there!

Pre-Chorus:
Can’t stop the thunder in my veins,
I live for sparks and highway flames.

Chorus:
I ride the line — between sin and soul,
Burnin’ gas, takin’ control.
Don’t need no crown, don’t need no sign,
I’m free tonight — I ride the line!

Bridge:
Yeah, life’s a road with no rear view,
No one’s drivin’ it but you!
Hit that gear, and don’t look back —
Just ride that storm till the sky goes black!

(Guitar-Solo)

Final Chorus:
I ride the line — between sin and soul,
Burnin’ gas, takin’ control.
Don’t need no crown, don’t need no sign,
I’m free tonight — yeah, I ride the line!

Outro:
(Guitar solo outro, big drum hits fade into feedback)
