![]() Even on the chorus, in which Lennox stresses the title like he's yawping it over the roofs of the world, the band never falters from its steady composure-proof that even at their most passionate, Bonny Doon never lose their cool. His lyrics have the sobering sadness of Bill Callahan: “Shine like a dime in the dirt/Hard to tell what it’s worth/But I work hard, I am kind.” That subtle touch of melancholy, almost hesitantly divulged, is quite moving in its reluctant candor it’s as if he wants to spill his guts while maintaining quiet dignity. “I Am Here (I Am Alive),” the first single from their upcoming album Longwave, brings that emotion forward a little more: Singer Bill Lennox confesses longing for a place in the world, of feeling restless and adrift. The breezy, understated alt-country of their 2017 self-titled debut sounded so laid-back at times, it was easy to overlook the emotion coursing beneath it, the deep reserves of loneliness and heartache the music drew from. The music video will come out Friday at 1 PM.The Detroit quartet Bonny Doon are a pretty nonchalant bunch. "She then held my hand and invited me into the beautiful world of chromatica and together, we got to express how beautiful and healing it feels to mothafuckinnnn cry ! i hope this makes u all feel as uplifted as it does for us both. she immediately felt like a sister to me," Grande tweeted. who cried as much as i did, drank as much wine as i did, ate as much pasta as i did and who’s heart was bigger than her whole body. i met a woman who knew pain the same way i did. When the song came out, Grande reflected on her experience with Gaga. I'd rather not be drinking, but I haven't died yet. And you know what it's also a metaphor for, is the amount of drinking that I was doing to numb myself. Rain on me.' This is about an analog of tears being the rain. I'm totally hiding.' And then this friendship blossomed and this song 'Rain On Me,' the lyrics that I wrote right here in this studio, 'I'd rather be dry, but at least I'm alive. "She was, 'You're hiding.' And I was, 'I am hiding. "And eventually she called me on my shit," Gaga continued. And I was too ashamed to hang out with her, because I didn't want to project all of this negativity onto something that was healing and so beautiful. She would try over and over again to be friends with me. Call me, here's my number.' And she was so persistent. ![]() And she was like, 'You're going to be okay. When she came into the studio, I was still crying, and she was not. And being able to be with her and hold her and be like, 'Anything that you feel chains you, any pop cultural construct that you feel you have to live up to, I'd like you to please forget about it and be yourself.' That woman has been through some really tough, really hard life-testing stuff, undoubtedly. She was, 'I'm going to just trust you.' And it was this beautiful, I think, very healing process for me… not necessarily a female artist that mentored me as I came up. "She was so open to trying things that she hasn't done before. Gaga also discussed the music video, which has not yet been released. I go, 'Make it unsafe, make it super fucking unsafe and then do it again.' And it was just awesome to watch her." ![]() ![]() And I always challenge artists when I work with them. We all do things to make ourselves feel safe. We create things that make us feel comfortable. It was the joy of two artists going, 'I see you…' Humans do this. Okay, okay.' And then I did it and she sang, and she started to do things with her voice that different. And by the way, while you're doing that, I'm going to dance in front of you,' because we had this huge big window… And she was like, 'Oh my God. "I remember I said to her, 'Okay, now, everything that you care about while you sing, I want you to forget it and just sing. Gaga spoke about collaborating with Grande and the many layers behind the lyrics of "Rain on Me" in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music. "Rain on Me." is an empowering pop song about persevering through hardship, healing, and finding beauty in the pain, heartbreak, and life. Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande released their big duet tonight at midnight. They have sent you a letter, To come back home to play, But to your dismay This isnt your day For the happy fun time Has begun to fade Watch as we reanimate Our corpses you abandoned Were dismantled Were mishandled But we wont be skipped and swayed Trapped within these walls You left our souls to drip away The ink decays The walls at bay But the reckoning has come today You say Borris has. ![]()
