rockyourlyricsRYL: Let’s start with a good news …”DNA” just reached gold in Italy! Amazing! Can you tell us what inspired this song?
ANNA F. : People, who don´t want to commit themselves to anything. neither to a common idea about love and life, nor to an emotional base.
That´s why the lyrics in the verses are totally weird, just a stream of consciousness
I wrote those lyrics with jimmy harry from L.A. in a drunken late night Skype session.
RYL: Is there a common meaning, a link,between the songs of the new album “King in the Mirror” ?
ANNA F. : It´s all about my personal experience and reflections within the past 3 years, e.g. about self-image versus how other people perceive yourself and the gap between those two things.
RYL: We love “Lost in Perfection”, what is behind its lyrics?
ANNA F. :it´s about human beings who become more and more similar.
I mean what are people striving for? they adjust, they even have surgeries….in the end you won’t find yourself within all those similar-looking people. individualism is at a loss.
