The Kolour Kult – Something Blue

The US band 'The Kolour Kult' show impress­ively with their song 'Something Blue' how mod­ern syn­thwave has to sound. The track is taken from the album 'Reception'. The acous­tic DNA con­tains a lot of clas­sic syn­thwave from the 80s, but the vocals and the use of the mod­ern kick drum make the whole thing sound very fresh. The song 'Something Blue' reminds me a bit of 'Scandroid' bangers like 'A Thousand Years'. Here it's also the mix­ture of music­al genres that makes the difference.

This song is part of our Spotify playl­ist ‘New Synth Pop Songs 2022‘. The playl­ist is updated con­tinu­ously. Follow this playl­ist now and don’t miss any of the latest synth pop hits in 2022.

Lyrics:

Five days until we do it all
You're not con­vinced you can go through it all
So very care­ful not to bur­den me
Leaving me happy with my certainty
And invit­a­tions go to all our friends
And all your joy is all pretend
Pick the loc­a­tion and we choose the date
Reception band, the price per plate
And, all this time, you're hav­ing second thoughts for sep­ar­ate lives and sep­ar­ate plots
Too many issues that we can't resolve
It's far too much
You call it off

I'm ready to throw away all of these things I've saved for you
I'm ready to sac­ri­fice some­thing old, some­thing loaned, some­thing new

Five months have passed and I'm a mess
You're with someone bet­ter if I had to guess
What mattered most is now a stu­pid thing
And I still can't take off this stu­pid ring
And though I felt like it was meant to be
So pos­it­ive; I couldn't see
I'm shed­ding everything and I'm okay
A brand new me for a brand new day

I'm ready to throw away all of these things I've saved for you
And I'm ready to sac­ri­fice some­thing old, some­thing loaned, some­thing new

And the third time feels like the second time
And the second time feels like the first time

In five years, he'll buy you some­thing wooden while my fears will keep me made of stone
Maybe I'll throw out five things I should have kept, but couldn't
Leave them lying on the grass out­side our home

And now I hardly can remem­ber you
I've built a life with someone new
I'm shed­ding everything and I'm okay
A brand new me for a brand new day

I'm ready to throw away all of these things I've saved for you
And I'm ready to sac­ri­fice some­thing old, some­thing loaned, some­thing new
I'm ready to elim­in­ate all of these things I've saved for you
And I've only this offer­ing of some­thing old, some­thing loaned, some­thing new
Something old, some­thing loaned, some­thing blue
