4-5

Dat een liedje niet treurig is, maakt het toch niet gelijk vrolijk?

Ik heb de tekst erbij gepakt, maar die is voor het overgrote deel een beetje cliché, eerlijk gezegd. Muzikaal vond ik het niet echt treurig. Beetje duister, dat wel, maar ik miste een beetje emotie. In veel battles zou ik overigens voor dit nummer van O.M.D. gekozen hebben, ik heb me iets te sterk uitgedrukt.

Ik zal zo de nieuwe battles plaatsen.
