ENGLISH:
Hey everyone, shemZee here! Just wanted to drop a quick post about my latest song, "Under the Rain." I recorded it with the hwlp of my mate Yavor, a great musician and a very talented guitarist as you `ll see and hear. It's been such a journey creating this piece specially for WEEK 3 of the VIBES contest, and I'm excited to share a bit about it with you all.
First off, let me say that the lyrics are something special. They delve deep into the complexities of love, painting a picture of two souls intertwined yet struggling to find harmony. It's a beautiful exploration of emotion, with each line carrying its weight in sorrow and longing. The imagery of being "equal under the rain," both physically and emotionally, is both powerful and poignant.
Now, let's talk about the sound. I know many of you have been asking about the guitars and the recording setup, so here it is: we recorded "Under the Rain" using a combination of a 12-string and a six-string guitar, both from the renowned French brand LAG. These guitars brought such depth and richness to the music, perfectly complementing the raw emotion of the lyrics. And to capture every nuance, we used a studio microphone from SHURE, ensuring that every strum and every word was crystal clear.
Overall, "Under the Rain" is a melancholic song that I'm incredibly proud of. It's a testament to the power of music to convey the depths of human experience, and I hope it resonates with each and every one of you.
Keep listening, keep feeling, and keep sharing the love.
Peace and melodies,

ENG TRANSLATION OF THE LYRICS:
We're equal under the rain's pour,
Equally soaked, barefoot on the floor.
The forecast for this love, alas,
Is a tale of sorrow, a forecast of bad.
My soul, like strings torn asunder,
An interrupted song, a pitiful blunder.
Yours, hidden in words missing, unseen,
An ellipsis at the end of the screen.
You can't speak, I can't sing, it's all a haze,
We hang disjointed in these darkened days.
You carry colorless waves, numb and still,
While I clutch tasteless shores, without thrill.
We're equal under the rain's pour,
Equally soaked, barefoot on the floor.
The forecast for this love, alas,
Is a tale of sorrow, a forecast of bad.
The mirror conceals the impossible "we",
Unrhymed words won't form a melody.
Can we, without a chorus, drink from this source,
Of sweet notes, with you, in our course?
We're equal under the rain's pour,
Equally soaked, barefoot on the floor.
The forecast for this love, alas,
Is a tale of sorrow, a forecast of bad.
Is a tale of sorrow, a forecast of bad.
Grief sometimes is the lack of rhyme,
Grief sometimes is the lack of your time.
We won't emerge dry, I say to thee,
We're equal under the rain's decree.
We're equal under the rain's pour,
We're equal under the rain's pour,
We're equal under the rain's pour,
We're equal under the rain's pour.
ESPANOL:
¡Hola a todos, aquí shemZee! Solo quería dejar una breve publicación sobre mi última canción, "Bajo la Lluvia". La grabé con la ayuda de mi amigo Yavor, un gran músico y un guitarrista muy talentoso, como verán y escucharán. Ha sido todo un viaje crear esta pieza especialmente para la SEMANA 3 del concurso VIBES, ¡y estoy emocionado de compartir un poco sobre ella con todos ustedes!
En primer lugar, permítanme decir que la letra es algo especial. Exploran profundamente las complejidades del amor, pintando un cuadro de dos almas entrelazadas pero luchando por encontrar armonía. Es una hermosa exploración de la emoción, con cada línea llevando su peso en tristeza y anhelo. La imagen de ser "iguales bajo la lluvia", tanto física como emocionalmente, es poderosa y conmovedora.
Ahora, hablemos del sonido. Sé que muchos de ustedes han estado preguntando sobre las guitarras y la configuración de grabación, así que aquí está: grabamos "Bajo la Lluvia" usando una combinación de una guitarra de 12 cuerdas y una guitarra de seis cuerdas, ambas de la renombrada marca francesa LAG. Estas guitarras aportaron una profundidad y riqueza tan necesarias a la música, complementando perfectamente la emoción cruda de la letra. Y para capturar cada matiz, utilizamos un micrófono de estudio de SHURE, asegurándonos de que cada rasgueo y cada palabra fueran cristalinos.
En general, "Bajo la Lluvia" es una canción melancólica de la que estoy increíblemente orgulloso. Es un testimonio del poder de la música para transmitir las profundidades de la experiencia humana, y espero que resuene con cada uno de ustedes.
Sigan escuchando, sigan sintiendo y sigan compartiendo el amor.
Paz y melodías,
shemZee 🎸
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo,
Empapados por igual, descalzos en el borde.
El pronóstico de este amor, ¡ay!,
Es una historia de pena, un presagio de mal.
Mi alma, como cuerdas rotas en desdén,
Una canción truncada, un triste desdén.
La tuya, oculta en palabras sin ver,
Un suspenso al final de la red.
Tú no puedes hablar, yo no puedo cantar, es un enredo,
Colgamos disyuntos en estos días sin luz, sin credo.
Tú llevas olas sin color, entumecidas y quietas,
Mientras yo agarro orillas sin sabor, sin fiesta.
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo,
Empapados por igual, descalzos en el borde.
El pronóstico de este amor, ¡ay!,
Es una historia de pena, un presagio de mal.
El espejo esconde el "nosotros" imposible de encontrar,
Palabras sin rima no pueden armonizar.
¿Podemos, sin coro, beber de esta fuente,
De dulces notas, contigo, en nuestra corriente?
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo,
Empapados por igual, descalzos en el borde.
El pronóstico de este amor, ¡ay!,
Es una historia de pena, un presagio de mal.
Es una historia de pena, un presagio de mal.
La tristeza a veces es la falta de rima,
La tristeza a veces es la falta de tu tiempo encima.
No saldremos secos, te digo con fe,
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo, aquí, con pie.
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo,
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo,
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo,
Bajo la lluvia, igual estamos tú y yo.
Original Bulgarian lyrics:
еднакви сме под дъжда
еднакво мокри и боси
прогнозата за тази любов
е за бедствие...
душата ми - скъсани струни
оскърбена прекъсната песен
твоята - скрита във липсващи думи
многоточие в края на текста
не ти се говори не мога да пея
висиме откъснати в черните дни
ти носиш безцветни вълни онемели
аз стискам безвкусния бряг без вълни
еднакви сме под дъжда
еднакво мокри и боси
прогнозата за тази любов
е за бедствие...
огледалото крие
невъзможното "ние"
неримувани думи
не правят куплет
нима е възможно
без припев да пием
от сладкия извор
на нотите с теб...
еднакви сме под дъжда
еднакво мокри и боси
прогнозата за тази любов
е за бедствие...
е за бедствие...
тъга понякога е липсата на съответствие
тъга понякога е липсата ти
няма да излезем сухи
казвам ти
еднакви сме под дъжда
еднакви сме под дъжда
еднакви сме под дъжда
еднакви сме под дъжда
