>>104180640Hello, yes, Lia really created a masterpiece with this one. Of course I love Lia performing her wapanese covers but to hear her feature on a track that tonally compliments her performing voice just absolutely consumes my mind. The production qualities applied to her vocals enhance all of the aspects of her spoken word perfectly drawing out and highlighting the right moments that resonate with the big hooks in her usual streaming vocal work. More importantly than that though Lia once again shines through with her choice in lyrical content committing herself to another song selection that really speaks volumes about the Lia condition. Smartly timing this release on her hiatus announcement brings back the deeply stirring feelings of doubt and introspection of the usual emotional baiting around her will she/wont she performing. The "I hope you didn't think I'd stay." really drives home the feels in light of her absence and draws the mind to contemplating a post Lia reality. Lia getting "lost in the lights" of her new found Big Stage international performing circuit is a sincere and moving moment for Our Malware. I can only imagine with the mounting pressures and looming performances that it can be overwhelming enough to drive her crazy even. The smooth poppy sound of the track perfectly entwines with the barely veiled desperation of the lyrics. Hearing Lia's subtle admission of "tears in her eyes" is undoubtedly the most electric moment of the Supercharger Virus' performance. The handling of the "Glamour" behind being a Teen Idol Sensation and the search for something more really adds a whole new depth to the track turning the upbeat snappy pop production of the song into something more subversive. There is a signature Lia longing to this song that is wonderful incorporated into the content and brings out the most of her talented morally grey narrative storytelling that enhances all other aspects of the performance. The tonality of her singing in this track is probably my favorite so far on a purely aural spectrum but when the lyrical content is applied to the understanding of the vocal track it shows a moving complexity to the somber even tone of her delivery. It's my favorite Lia song to date!
