about

EN // “Bad Land Alley” is a luminous folk ballad and is the second single taken from “Hang Tight”, the forthcoming album from French artist Vadim Vernay, which will be released on the 14th of October 2022. It is a complete contrast to the first single “How” which was a breathless trip-hop in line with his electro remixes of Camilla Sparksss. This time the acoustic guitar and intimate vocals confirm Vadim Vernay’s skills as a songwriter. Without any artifice, it’s a song full of moving nostalgia.

FR // Ballade folk lumineuse, “Bad Land Alley” est le second single extrait de “Hang Tight”, prochain album du français Vadim Vernay à paraître le 14 octobre prochain. En prenant le contrepied de “How”, premier single et brûlot trip-hop dans la droite ligne de ses remixs electro pour Camilla Sparksss, ce guitare-voix acoustique et intimiste confirme la capacité de songwriter de Vadim Vernay. Sans artifice, une chanson habitée à la nostalgie touchante.

BAD LAND ALLEY

The ladder in flames
Watch the signs !
Watch the signs !
Suspended in the air
Hold the line
Hold the line
Ain’t any ground in here
Nevermind
Cos’ as long as it’s standing
It’s alright
It’s alright

The little cracks in the ice
Under our steps
D’you hear that ?
Bellow it’s deep and dark
See how that hell
Of a land lies
Ain’t any sun in here
Nevermind
Cos’ as long as it’s standing
It’s alright

The rust in our kisses
Cold and tired
Cannot lie
Crooked love in the ditch
Caught our shine
Caught our shine
Ain’t any backdoor here
Nevermind
Cos’ as long as it’s standing
It’s alright
