"Mata Hari"
The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

Mata Hari (meaning "sun" in Malay) reimagines the sound of the 80s in the year 2080. The song is told through the eyes of an artist, who creates a painting as a declaration of love and as a testament to the intensity of emotions and feelings (for another) when words and actions were inadequate.

Released on October 16, 2020, “Mata Hari” is the fourth single of The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS). The track forms part of the independently produced album ‘Full Spectrum'.

About The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara

The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS) are a London-based duo comprising Andrea Papi and Daphne Ang. Coming together in early 2020 to record their debut album FULL SPECTRUM, the duo are fast establishing their niche in music as pioneers of a new form of expression, through the performance of poetry in music, and as an act that traverses between the wide-reaching spectrums of music. 

Drawing inspiration from TOOL and Kraftwerk, as well as the poetry of Sylvia Plath, Virginia Woolf, and Jim Morrison, TCOMAS brings literature, art, and history together into a space where rock and metal meets electronic.

Lyrics

So you said to do it for feelings
Feelings for you
So I decided to put it to the test
In the way I know best

It was catharsis
A spectacle
A supernova
Paint drops like teardrops
Falling rain on a November’s day
My heart cries out
My soul implodes
A violent meeting of sea and stars on stretched linen
I have made a mess
But oh what a glorious mess

Mata Hari
Pagi Bintang
With you I burn so bright
Incandescent light
You and me
We will become
The brightest stars in the sky

Mata Hari
Hati Saya
Deep and precious are the experiences we share
The mundane, the sublime
All of time, intertwined

You bring out the best in me
And the rest of me
You have the best of me
Take the rest of me

Take the rest of me
Take the rest of me
Take the rest of me
The best of me

Mata Hari
Pagi Bintang
With you I burn so bright
Incandescent light
You and me
We will become
The brightest stars in the sky

Mata Hari
Hati Saya
With you I burn so bright
Ablaze like stellar light
You and me together we are
The brightest stars in the sky
The brightest stars in the sky
For all of time, intertwined
All the time
Together, entwined
