SEASON 9 • EPISODE 1 It's all about you!
Send a song that describes your personality.
   Sylvie Vartan
La Maritza
I adore the fact that for the first week we can send whatever song we want. Like a blank canvas that is awaiting to be painted with the flavour we have to offer. As I have said, I did not come here to play safe and for the very first challenge I have decided to take what I regard as a minor risk.
The following song is very close to my heart, as I share a similar fate with the magnificent Sylvie Vartan. It is almost as if she wrote the lyrics for me. As a Bulgarian queen living and working abroad, it is my duty to spread and educate people about Bulgarian culture and everything related with my beloved Balkan country. It is even part of my name, like helloooo? Either way, for my first ever impression to Mama Daniel and the judges’ panel, I present to you La Maritza by Sylvie Vartan. Let’s start with a brief biography of Miss Vartan, for those unfamiliar with French chansons. The Bulgaro-French-Armenian singer was born in a small village near Sofia during Bulgaria’s socialist years. However, due to the uncertainty of life, she and her family moved to Paris when she was only 10 years old. Who would’ve guessed that several years after that that I would have followed the same steps? As a born and bred Sofian born in the 90s after the collapse of Socialist Bulgaria, me and my family had to emigrate to Paris. I was only 10 years old. I had difficulties settling in this new foreign atmosphere. But I did not give up. Little Miz Bulge Area powered through the difficulties of the Parisian streets. And I followed my dreams… But it came with a price - my lost Bulgarian heritage. It was a struggle to reclaim it. But I did. And this is why I am sending this song. The song is about longing for the motherland, something that was taken away from me and Sylvie. La Maritza is named after the longest river in Bulgaria - the Maritsa.
The Maritza is my river Like the Seine is yours But there is no one but my father Now, who remembers that Sometimes...
From my first ten years There is nothing more left Not the most poor doll
When the horizon became too dark All the birds were gone On the path of hope And we have followed them To Paris...

Season 9, Episode 1: It's all about you
For this very first challenge, I'd like to offer you a tasty pepper dish with "Paprika" by Japanese Breakfast.
When I think of challenges like this, where we have to present our personality, my first thought is to go fully negative. "Nobody likes me, I'm a burden to society, I'm anxious, I'm a flop" etc. etc. It's something I've done in past challenges like this and something that has worked well for me. However, I do feel like I'm a person that has something to offer to the world. I have my wishes, my hopes, my dreams and I have my personality, that may or may not vibe with everybody. And yet, of course I experience many moments of self-doubt and loneliness, in which I think to myself "why can't the world see me for who I truly am?" This sentiment is perfectly captured by the lyrics of this song. It deals with the wonderful feeling of expressing yourself to the world and showing your authentic colors while also combating times where it feels like nobody wants to listen and you're unworthy. The song is a great representation of ambivalent feelings that I also experience: to try and find your self-worth and own genuine way of expression, alongside all the struggles that come with that journey. I think a lot of people might be able to relate to the lyrics, as I'm sure we all just want to be ourself and be happy in the presence of others, but sometimes we just can't get all of that out and feel lonely, and that too is part of life.
Apart from the meaning of the song, I think it sounds simply beautiful. The combination of the vocals with the gorgeous instrumentation makes a great soundtrack for the lyrics of the song.
Lyrics:
Lucidity came slowly
I awoke from dreams of untying a great knot
It unraveled like a braid
Into what seemed were
Thousands of separate strands of fishing line
Attached to coarse behavior it flowed
A calm it urged, what else is here?
How's it feel to be at the center of magic
To linger in tones and words?
I opened the floodgates
And found no water, no current, no river, no rush
How's it feel to stand at the height of your powers
To captivate every heart?
Projecting your visions to strangers who feel it
Who listen, who linger on every word
Oh, it's a rush
Oh, it's a rush
But alone it feels like dying
All alone I feel so much
I want my offering to woo, to calm, to clear, to solve
But the only offering that comes
It calls, it screams, there's nothing here
How's it feel to be at the center of magic
To linger in tones and words?
I opened the floodgates
And found no water, no current, no river, no rush
How's it feel to stand at the height of your powers
To captivate every heart?
Projecting your visions to strangers who feel it
Who listen, who linger on every word
Oh, it's a rush
Oh, it's a rush

Season 9, Episode 1: It's all about you
First week, send in a song that describes your personality? Whew. That's a very difficult and very abstract thing to wrap your mind around. So, I sat around, and tried to wrap my mind around this. Who am I? What do I embody? What is it that I stand for? All of these things were rattling around my mind. Finally, I figured out what I am.
I am a person born into a nation where I was seen as unnatural. Many of the parents of my friends from preschool and kindergarten wouldn't let me play with them because I looked different from their children. It was heartbreaking. My appearance was the first thing these parents would see, and they refused to give me a chance, citing my appearance as unnatural, and something more akin to a demon in a child's body, as if I was some real version of Yamamura Sadako. I was too young to understand the intricacies of racism. All I could see were these parents dragging my friends away from me, without letting me have a chance. At the age of six, my family moved across the ocean to a new home, forcing me to say goodbye to these friends. In this new land, however, new issues arose. This time, xenophobia. The cries of "go back to your country" were hurled at myself and my immigrant friends. We were just children, forced to experience the worst of humanity head on. As I grew older, I discovered that I wasn't the cisgender, heterosexual child that my parents raised me to be. In this land that I immigrated to, people like these two halves of me are despised. I tried my best to hide both of these aspects of myself, but it all seemed to be in vain.
Over time, I learned to love these aspects of myself. I learned that my experience being born and raised in two separate nations, oceans apart, was nothing to be ashamed of. I learned that the child who wanted to do nothing else but just fit into the mold society prescribed to me was just someone who was never shown the greatness that comes with being unique. My story is one that I carry with me, and is something that makes up the vast majority of my being. I wanted to find a song that could highlight this aspect of my being, without compromise.
With this in mind, let me introduce the artist behind my song.    Gaika Tavares, known mononomously by his first name, is a rapper, vocalist, writer, activist, and sculptor born in Brixton, South London. GAIKA got his start as a member of the Manchester based arts organisation, Murkage Cartel. In the Murkage Cartel, he was one of the creative visionaries, as well as one of the primary vocalists of the collective as a whole. After the Cartel ceased opperations, he went on his own road, merging several genres together in a way that only he has done. Some magazines have dubbed him "electronic music's answer to Basquiat", while he simply refers to the style he creates as "ghettofuturism". He has written several articles as a political essayist, including one describing how important it is to honour the cultures behind major festivities in reference to Notting Hill Carnival, as well as an article bashing the London Metropolitan Police for essentially banning drill music, a style created predominantly by young black men.
I selected his track "Seven Churches For Saint Jude" for one main reason. In the Roman Catholic Church, Saint Jude is the patron saint of desperate cases and lost causes. When you are raised across multiple cultures, you have to neglect one of the cultures to have some semblance of self remaining. This is especially true in Anglophone nations. Often, the culture that is neglected is the culture of the parents, in order to fit in with the rest of the people you are around. A study by Portes and Schauffler note that the "preservation of parental languages varies inversely with the length of U.S. residence and residential locations away from areas of ethnic concentration". This often leads to the parents feeling as if their child is a lost cause. Prayers to Saint Jude are often given in this case. Not only this, but immigrants and people who exist outside the majority are often seen as lost causes. GAIKA chose to include this symbolism as a piece of irony. The prayers given to Saint Jude are often to try and correct what is seen as misguided people. Whether they be a person of colour in a white nation, or a member of the LGBTQIA2S+ community, these prayers are given to "fix" us, even when there isn't a single thing wrong with us. GAIKA wrote this song both as a critique of the stereotype of the lower class, often immigrant and people of colour occupying these stereotype, as well as a critique on the politicians who would rather make poverty illegal rather than actually trying to eliminate the issue at the roots.
"CAN HOLINESS BE BORN?"
GAIKA, 2:58
In this case, yes. If you are a cisgender, heterosexual white male, you are seen by the majority of people instantly holy. You could be the worst person on the planet, and there will be people who will revere you like a deity. And yet, the same cannot be said for anyone outside of this window. Ever wonder why there are always mission trips that churches put together that go to nations in Africa and Oceania, but never to Europe? Simple. They see us as lost causes. They want to try and correct us. But there isn't anything wrong with us.
I am an immigrant. I am a member of the LGBTQIA2S+ community. And no amount of prayers to Saint Jude can change that.
GAIKA - Seven Churches For Saint Jude

Every time I catch a plane I cross myself and pray
Who are you to judge my selfish ways?
Crew smiling [?] on the X-ray, who are you to judge?
Textbook wall [?] with a built face, who are you to judge?
Swap a cabriolet for your bag full of AKs
Move it by the window [?] hombres
Emigrees from a skinny man's state
Inner city gothic, and it's pray every day
We not wait, with the chops on, mate
Push flake with the cops on tape
Preacher man, we died for this mandate
Born in a heaven you found
Red diamonds, tiny parts are cut
Out the hearts of the women I love
Songs of praise when the raft was burned
Dollar bills from dawn to dusk
Red diamonds, tiny parts are cut
Out the hearts of the women I love
Songs of praise when the raft was burned
Dollars from dawn to dusk
Can holiness be born?
Consent to a golden cross
Preacher man, preacher man
Protect me from my sins
Can holiness be born?
Consent to a golden cross
Preacher man, preacher man
Protect me from my sins again
We got those who stand by to watch and to see what took place and to join in.
This, we asked you for your special blessin's over everyone, and, oh father, we give it all to you.
We pray, God, for special dedication, we pray now for special blessin's.
Nothin' shall vandalise this tomb.
Oh God, it shall be protected and preserved by your mighty hand.
Oh God, let no ting comes around to disturb the dead that lies here
Red diamonds, tiny parts are cut
Out the hearts of the women I love
Songs of praise when the raft was burned
Dollar bills from dawn to dusk
Red diamonds, tiny parts are cut
Out the hearts of the women I love
Songs of praise when the raft was burned
Dollars from dawn to dusk |

  Bow Wow Wow · Fools Rush In (Where Angels Never Tread)
GOOD EVENING.
my personality is very. idk. idgaf. to the core my ideology of living my life is just doing whatever i want and if it doesnt work, do something else. this is very much a flawed ideology and has gotten me in so much trouble. i do everything on a whim, i have a hard time staying on track because im fascinated by something else, very short term solutions instead of long term. BUT do not misunderstand, i do not fail at everything, i really do get what need be done done and what i want i get, i am a gogetter in my nature, a hunter really, not a gatherer. this song was written by johnny mercer for glenn miller and his orchestra in the 1940's, and has been covered by many artists. BUT THIS.... this version is so me. the whole production is so chaotic, the barking, the singer sounds like björk (im related to her thru my great-grandmother FYI), and the lyrics... mama i am a fool. "fools rush in where angels fear to tread" phrase of fool PROVERB people without good sense or judgement will have no hesitation in tackling a situation that even the wisest would avoid. here are the lyrics... they are so very me. Fools rush in
Where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you my love
My heart above my head
Though I see
The danger there
If there's a chance for me
Then I don't care
Fools rush in
Where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know?
When we met
I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in
Fools rush in
Where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know?
When we met
I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in
Just open up your heart and let
This fool rush in
Whoah open up your heart and let
This fool rush in

SEASON 9 • EPISODE 1
It's all about you!
Send a song that describes your personality.
So, week 1. Looking at this challenge there are so many routes to go. So many songs to choose, 'Simply The Best', 'Love Myself', 'Beautiful', 'I Don't Care' all so accurate and all really help sum who I am. But, I have decided to take a different root. Something that is more meaningful.
The song I feel describes my personality best is.
Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like A Woman
This song really shows who I am as, Man ... I really do feel like a woman, short skirts, colour my hair, going wild, doing it in style. I feel and look like a woman. Some may throw other words around, 'harlot', 'lady of the night', 'stripper'. They are all jealous of my Freedom!
Everything this represents is me. I am that person that wants to break the traditional roles and go wild and forget what is going on as sometimes you need that release from the negativity. "Raise my voice and scream and shout".
On a deeper level, this song broke boundaries and made such a statement for everybody who felt and looked a little different. The androgynous outfit she wears in the video allows us to bend the world to how we want it and how we want to live inside it. Like the video and lyrics say
"Oh, oh, oh, I wanna be free, yeah, to feel the way I feel."
"I ain't gonna act politically correct"
This song is the energy I am.
I am free, I can feel what I want and wear what I want and not have to be be someone else's ideal. |

Xhesika Luisa Nelson S09E01 - It's all about you!
"Send a song that describes your personality" - that is BROAD. It is no easy feat to pick just one song that encapsulates and embodies all THIS, you know? Ultimately, though, I knew exactly what I had to do. What better way to represent your personality than with a song that is already so close and so dear to my heart? Some may say that sadness and depression is a safe or predictable route for this challenge, but that is ME. I AM sadness and depression. It is what I do best and it is where I am thriving. Trust and believe I will deliver beats and oontz oontz and DIVERSITY in my long and extensive run in this competition, but the assignment this week is to describe myself. And that is what I am here to do…
CLEWS - "Feel"
CLEWS themselves say that "Feel" is about the feeling of "knowing that you're teetering on the edge of everything about to change". It was written at the age of 17; a piece filled with fear and unknowing both of what's to come in the future, and that the past and present have been/are being wasted. While this isn't necessarily a unique concept, the lyricism in this song conveys this idea + many other similar/associated ideas in a way I identify with very poignantly and this ESSAY will explain it kinda not clearly and absolutely not succintly. It is a mess and it is ME. Buckle up and "enjoy" the ride as I embark on this lyrical dissection of Australian indie rock band CLEWS' seminal hit piece "Feel". 
The song opens with "I don't wanna make you feel / I don't wanna make it harder and harder". I do not think it is a secret that I am a SERIAL people pleaser. I will go out of my way to not be a bother to people if at all possible and the fact that this song opens with these lines emphasises to me that, above all else, above everything else in this song, they do not want to be a bother. I do not want to be a bother. I just want to lie in a room and ascend and listen to my silly little songs and write my silly little essays and be in PEACE. But that is not possible and as you progress further into adulthood you really do HAVE to inconvenience people as much as you loathe the idea. Failure to do so results in missing opportunities and falling behind in life (more on THAT later).
Another particularly powerful lyric from the first verse is "it only gets harder and harder from here". And I mean I just think she spilled really. It DOES only get harder and harder from here. Life continues to pile up, and while maybe through childhood you are brought up with the optimistic idea that once you pass a certain point, or go through so much, eventually it will get easier, a part of progressing into adulthood is the acceptance that maybe that isn't the case and maybe it's only meant to get harder and harder and you just have to deal with it. This is something that especially at the moment is hitting me full force! Life is throwing many many things all at once and just as I think I have overcome it throws another obstacle into my face and while maybe in the past I would have given myself a checkpoint - a place in the future where I could say "from this point, it should get easier" - realistically with more adult based knowledge I know that is untrue. It may only get harder and harder from here, and that is something you have to deal with.
This is expanded on in the second verse, "see where I come from, it's not too bad at all unless you're looking for a light". I think this is an idea that is so normalised in society, that life is supposed to be endlessly difficult with no respite and all we can do is come to terms with it, adjust to it and say it's not too bad. In reality it is bad, and it's only not bad if you're lowering your standards for life. In childhood we are encouraged to always look for more, push for your dreams and reach for the stars, and eventually over adolescence and eventually adulthood often that light will dwindle or out entirely as we come to terms with the fact that for most people all dreams will ever be are dreams. So, all we can do it say it's not too bad, unless you're looking for the light. The light is not coming.
The second verse also presents a gorgeous set of lyrics with dual interpretations! You know I love a dual interpretation. "Everywhere's exploding, soon it will be in your head" is very powerful to me. First of all, you could interpret it as the dissipation of the childish idea that you can ignore the exploding adult mess - either on a global scale with political issues that you can only ignore in bliss for so long, or on a more local scale with all the domestic joys that come with adult life - so, from the perspective of a 17 year-old, there's an awareness that soon, these things you have been ignoring as a child for so long will have to be in your head. Alternatively you can read these lyrics as a representation of adult life in itself. Everything in life is so manic and messy, eventually instead of dealing with it healthily or methodically, because it just keeps coming you will let it overwhelm you and you will become swept away in it all, losing the sense of self you had as a child.
There is a lyric she sings in the third verse that speaks to my soul loud and clear - "she's never been in the air". I've never been in the air. I love the National Express because I feel like wherever I go I can express myself nationally. But ALSO you could see this as a metaphor. YES I said it stay with me I beg of you stay with me. You could see this as a metaphor for being in the state of limbo between childhood and adulthood - there are so many things you haven't yet done that on paper seem so dull and unremarkable but when it actually comes to approaching them actually seem so huge. I've never been in the air. The idea of being in the air is very scary, dealing with airports, luggage and then an actual flight fills me with dread. And yet it is something that fellow adults just… do. Some regularly just as a part of life. I don't get it!
On a more personal note, the lyric "I haven't left the house all year not yet" is another one that fits my personality very well. Not because I literally haven't left the house all year, but because it is often a massive struggle through fear and anxiety to venture out of places I am familiar and comfortable with, regardless of potential benefits. I isolate myself more than I should through various fears of disappointing people or rejection or a multitude of other reasons and miss out on good opportunities and moments because of it. And I wish I didn't very badly it is just very difficult when everything else is mounting up
You thought I was done? There are even MORE layers to my unhinged identification with this song. "How can I explain it, how some of us made it out and the rest just didn't care" is very powerful also, as it explores the idea of comparing yourself to people you grew up close with. Some of those people are now doing amazing things with their lives, whereas others are… surviving but not truly LIVING, reduced to living in apathy, and the distinction between the two feels almost random, like you can't explain exactly how some "made it" and some didn't, all you know is that it's happened and somehow that is what the situation is now.
All I have left in the song to explore and analyse is its stunning chorus. "All the time I have is on my hands, I just let it go" details the feeling of guilt for supposedly letting time slip away rather than making more use of it, mournfully looking back over time that you should've made MORE of in whatever way - whether it was to better yourself or just to enjoy it. It's a very typical and very common idea of not having enough energy or capacity to do more with your time because you're so tired and worn down from just surviving.
And FINALLY (you made it!!!), the second part of the chorus really drills the whole sentiment of the song home in a powerful moment that never fails to bring me to heaven. "All the hopes we have, they seem so strange, feels like years ago, so do I". Let that sink in for a moment. The dreams you have as a child of what you could make of your life, the opportunity, the joy, the love, the happiness, in retrospect all look so strange and unrealistic. Like… obviously it was all never going to be. Why did you ever think otherwise? And the closing line of the chorus "so do I" reflects that idea onto yourself - by losing thoes dreams in turn you feel as though you have lost yourself, to the point where you don't even really know who you are anymore. And maybe you never will.
In conclusion, I do think this song is a gorgeous encapsulation of my personality. I will not do a TLDR but I would like to also add that sonically this is SO me. Gorgeous feminine indie rock vibes with gorgeous vocals, starting off quiet and reflective and building to something louder, more powerful. A perfect piece to ascend and weep to. I hope you love it nearly as much as I do |

 MISS TOXIC 3000
Season 9, Episode 1: It's all about you
"Nonbinary" by Arca.
Content warning: this video contains images of near nudity as well as body horror/modification, if that bothers you: don't watch the music video!
First off, I relate to this song for obvious reasons. Because it sounds metallic and my queen is a robot, of course. Aside from that, I also obviously identify as non-binary and have now publicly for almost 2.5 years! When this song came out, I had publicly identified as such for only a few months and I genuinely craved constant affirmation from both myself and others that my identity was right for me, and looking back I feel like this song was incredibly affirming for me at the time and I definitely listened to it a lot at the time and really took in the lyrics.
I still struggle with impostor syndrome to an extent when it comes to my gender identity, but having important representation in artists like Arca has been incredibly special for me over the past few years, and while I may not be the biggest fan of absolutely everything Arca puts out, this song will always hold a very special place in my heart - just because of when it came out, at a time when I needed it, and what it stands for.
With regard to this specific challenge, obviously being non-binary isn't my personality, but the song itself also describes the feeling of freedom, and of self-confidence. Just being queer and non-binary has also had a tremendous impact on my personality as well, especially over the past few years I've felt far more comfortable expressing myself and my actual personality, and the song sort describes how it feels to get past putting on a facade of a fake personality and embracing and expressing yourself, regardless of what others may think. Therefore I feel this song is fitting to the challenge at hand.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I do what I wanna do when I wanna do it
Bitch, I got the bags to prove it
Hips to move it around and make shapes, yes
Trim the waste off and the waist down, girl, it's lift off
It's French tips wrapped 'round a dick
Do you want a taste?
I don't give a fuck what you think
You don't know me
You might owe me
But, bitch, you'll never know me
Ask me how I got here
Bitch, I worked hard
Ask me about my luck
Yeah, I've been lucky
And I've been unlucky
It's both
Don't put your shit on me
Bitch, I'm special, you can't tell me otherwise
That'd be a lie
[Verse 2]
Who do you think I am?
It's not who do you think you're dealing with, no
'Cause you're not "dealing with"
There's no deal
Bitch, it's real on my side
Go ahead, speak for yourself
Go ahead, speak for yourself
Cast the first stone
If you wanna be a puppet
Better yet—
[Interlude]
Speak for your self-states
Speak for your self-states
Speak for your self-states
Speak for your self-states
Speak for your self, self-states
Move for your self-states
Speak for your self-states
Speak for your self-states
Speak for your self-states
Move for your self
[Verse 3]
I can be friendly or I can be fake
I can be real or I can lick a taste
What's it gonna take?
I can be sexy or I could be sad
Act bad just to be sweet
What a treat
It is to be
Nonbinary
Ma chérie
Tee-hee-hee

A very Interesting yet Exciting challenge to start of this exciting Season! Many different Routes to go down. But ready to show the real, newer and improved ME!
MIMAA - Bailarina
MIMAA is a young French artist who can be inspired by their Spanish origins. You can definitely tell that with MIMAA in the song and Video, Latina vibes meets French Beauty.
There are a variety of Personality traits that I can relate to with this song
Ambitious - I love to be focused on the reaching the top of what my dreams are, no matter how out of my reach that may be or who is in my way to get there. In the song. MIMAA looks down at the little box of the Ballerina and she envisions that being her and she tries to achieve this goal no matter how hard it will be and no one will tell her away from that.
"But no one can extinguish the flame that she carries inside".
Passionate - I am very Passionate about things or tasks that excite me and want to make the most out of it. If its something you love you will go head first to work hard to get it. You can tell in the song that this Bailarina has a Passion for what she does, no matter who tried to stop her, she still followed her passion for what she loved and that was to be a Bailarina.
"She dances with all the stars"
Confident - For me, Confidence has been a Personality thats been the biggest grower for me. Never used to be so confident, but I jump into situations where I dont think I'll handle it, and want to push myself to be a more confident me. Then with this confidence comes being more outgoing and wanting to keep pushing that boundary more each time. Same goes for in the song, MIMAA has also grown the confidence to become a great Bailarina no matter the obstacles, she kept focused and with the confidence becomes a better performance vice versa.
"She does what she wants, she dances with the land, she dances with the mountains, she doesn't dance like just anybody"
This song is taking a more positive approach on this challenge, I love to Fight back from problems faced, being Positive and Optimistic. Just like I'm fighting back now going from KSR to DSR .
A we side note, It was hard to find lyrics for the song, Got a bit of help from fellow spanish forumers for co-operation in helping me in translation Jmain Fat Nepal
