Tamara Qaddoumi - Over Fire

-
"Over Fire" by Tamara Qaddoumi opens with a stark contrast: a steady electronic tone that swiftly plunges into a deep, unforgiving bassline, mirroring the conflict between the yearning for something new and the fear of leaving the familiar. The sultry vocals paint a picture of a seductive yet uncertain path. This altpop song progressively builds, incorporating haunting guitar riffs and harmonic vocal arrangements, evoking a sense of foreboding and intrigue. The darkness and mystery symbolize the unknown territory ahead, both exciting and daunting. Qaddoumi's lyrics, filled with vivid imagery and introspective themes, further create the song's atmosphere. The repeated chorus, "I've been traveling over fire," emphasizes the determination and resilience despite the fear. It's a journey of self-discovery, pushing boundaries and confronting personal demons.As the narrative unfolds, themes of desire, exploration, and existential contemplation surface, adding depth to the sonic journey. The final lines, "we all lie here, we all die here," could be interpreted as accepting the impermanence of life and the inevitability of challenges. It's a somber reminder that living fully includes confronting fears and venturing into the unknown.
