Lost in Paradise (Synthesis)

[AeternusAmatorius]

Here we can discuss the Synthesis reworking of Lost in Paradise.

I’ve been believing in something so distant
As if I was human
And I’ve been denying this feeling of hopelessness in me, in me
All the promises I made
Just to let you down
You believed in me but I’m broken

I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We’ve been falling for all this time
And now I’m lost in paradise

As much as I’d like the past not to exist
It still does
And as much as I’d like to feel like I belong here
I’m just as scared as you

I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We’ve been falling for all this time
And now I’m lost in paradise

Run away, run away
One day we won’t feel this pain anymore
Take it all away, shadows of you
‘Cause they won’t let me go

Till I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We’ve been falling for all this time
And now I’m lost in paradise
Alone and lost in paradise

Gorgeous as usual. This song always gets the water works going.

I don't think there's anything that really stands out to me to mention.

I've been waiting for this one.
This feels like the release of EV3 again... I remember this song especially caught my attention back then. I will always love it and it's always been one of my favorites. It disappoints a little... I wish the piano parts stayed in it. What made the song originally so great was that beautiful piano sound, the deep low notes. I think the orchestra itself failed to capture that essence. What did make up for it though was "Run away, run away" until the end of the song. Great sound.
Amy's voice sounds desperate in the chorus - in a good way - you can hear the emotion. It's beautiful.

It's not really one of my favorite songs, but I think this is some of the best work on Synthesis. There are moments in other songs that feel like they don't sit quite right, but Lost in Paradise is a smooth ride from start to finish. And "run away" manages to be one of the biggest moments on the whole album.

Okay this is probably completely a coincidence. I just listened to Lip and I was like... wait that sounds soo familiar where have I heard that beat before? And then I remember my crapy Remix's of LIP that I did 5 years ago:

Play from about 1:12

(Those hi hats are awful what was I thinking)

Obviously the synthesis version is a way better polished attempt at the same idea - which is probably coincidence unless programer Will Hunt heard my remix?


But OMG I can't stop smiling.
