[MA GDPR YouTube] Invalid video id.Guitarist Ville Vesalainen has always been a fan of opposing the "you can't do that" attitude in music. This time a (male) blond sings Papa Don't Preach but now with a positive, thankful vibe to his supportive dad in all the big wind of change. Say it while you can attitude is still a key idea, and some things are easier to express through music. The track features Anu (Zippity Doodah, Achiote) in female vocals.
Say it while you can attitude is still a key idea, and some things are easier to express through music. So though the idea and the use of the phrase is conscious, the song is not a Madonna cover, more like use of sampling mostly done in other genres, but here just in the songs lyrical side.
- Ville Vesalainen
Video was shot on bands previous European Tour and in their home town Turku, Finland.
The band returns to studio this month to start finalizing their third, and yet most powerful album at Sonic Pump Studios, Helsinki. The production is done with Eero Kaukomies and Hannu Leidén, already familiar to Ville Vesalainen, to bring their vision of rock to a modern audience.
