More than a decade after her thrillingly close third-place Eurovision finish as part of the faux Lesbian duo t.A.T.u, Lena Katina has a new solo single. The Russian beauty has released “Silent Hills”, which highlights her haunting voice along with a modern electronic beat.
Back in 2003, Lena was one half of the t.A.T.u, along with Yulia Volkova. They represented Russia in Riga and gave a memorable performance. But despite being one of the biggest bands in the world at the time, they had to settle for third place.
The t.A.T.u days are gone and Lena has been busy with her solo career in recent years. Her newest single “Silent Hills” is out and it is sizzling. With Lena’s haunting voice and a soft but pounding electro beat, not much can go wrong with this piece of musical art.
The song tells the story of a woman who is saying goodbye to her significant other, and moving on with her life, after facing the fact that they simply weren’t as compatible as she thought.
It starts off on a rather sad note, but in the end, the protagonist is looking towards the future with a smile on her face, knowing that one does not go through life without a few minor bumps along the way.
The song is not without humour. At one point she tells her ex, “You lost our wedding ring, Frodo”. When a woman is dishing some Lord of the Rings shade, you know it’s over!
“Silent Hills” lyrics – Lena Katina
I am happy, I’m all smiles
Just the grieving in my style
Just a problem I enjoyed
No more crying on my boy
Be afraid the things in your eyes affect me
You can’t feel air too electric
You lost our wedding ring, Frodo
I had a great fall like Humpty Dumpty
Seems like we are not on one team
Surely, it was all just a dream
Silent Hills
I know we were not real
I know we were not real
I applaud, you played the role
Just a killer in my soul
Now I’m frozen in a black hole
People can’t see I’ve gone cold
Be afraid the things in your eyes affect me
You can’t feel air too electric
You lost our wedding ring, Frodo
I had a great fall like Humpty Dumpty
Seems like we are not on one team
Surely, it was all just a dream
Silent Hills
I know we were not real
I know we were not real
I know we were not real
I am happy, I’m all smiles
Just the grieving in my style
What do you think of Lena’s new single? And better yet, shouldn’t Russia start to consider sending her as a solo act? The girl has got style all the way! Please express your thoughts in the comments below.
I have a feeling that Hideo Kojima might have something to do with this. Some might even say that this song has some sort of link to Death Stranding. After all Silent Hills was a game that got canceled and was directed by Kojima and starring Norman Reedus just like Death Stranding of course. The songs lyrics reference black holes and this is something that could potentially play a big role in Death Stranding, if you look at one of the posters, Norman’s character wears dog tags with physics equations related to black holes.
Loved It! I prefer her than the homophobic bitch. Lena is so underrated, that’s not fair.
Gosh, I always forget which one is the one that we still like.
Its Lena the red head one the other one Yulia with Black hair is the hideous one
Why is Yulia hideous? She is not ugly.
So Lena is the curly one? The brunette is Yulia, right? Which one was in a relationship with their manager while pretending to be lesbians? And Kirkorov can make Liberace look like a monk. Is he straight too?
About Kirkorov I know only one thing-that he was a teenager when he fell in love with the russian-star Alla Pugacheva (older than him) and he said ”this woman will be my wife” and years after they were married and then divorced. Is he straight?
