Things I Liked: So dumb
Things I Disliked: Could be even dumber

Colors weave into a spire of flame, distant sparks call to a past still unnamed, bear this torch against the cold of the night, search your soul and reawaken the undying liiiiiiiiiiight

This song is so stupid that it loops around to being great. Its exactly the kind of stupid nonsense I love: a woman breathlessly belting out lyrics, all of the words being so laced in metaphors that theyre applicable to any scenario, and epic instruments in the background behind her. I love this kind of dumb crap, I listened to this song like ten times after the original video was uploaded to YouTube.

Im on the fence about whether or not it could go dumber. It certainly could, but should it? Any further and its entering intentionally stupid territory, which is always risky. Very few intentionally bad things are good-bad, good-bad is almost always the result of someone trying to be serious and failing. I dont really know how clever the people behind this song are, is the thing.
