His synth-driven pop creations command the dance floor with funky grooves and bass-heavy vocals.

10) BEAR is a Belgian Metalcore band from Antwerp.
Face BEAR, an Antwerp-based 4 piece. Conspired in 2010 they set out to bring audible fury to the masses.
About 103 twisted breaks and turns later their first cub saw the burning rays of sunlight in the form of a 5 track MCD 'ABSTRACTIONS' which was self released. And later on became digitally available on Conspiracy records.
BEAR spends the rest of 2010 playing numerous shows, including a UK tour with While She Sleeps. The band recieved loads of great reviews in
Metal Hammer/Rocksound/Mindview on their MCD and dropping jaws on the way with their high energy driven and destructive live performance.
By the end of 2010 their efforts got rewarded with a record deal!
BEAR is VERY proud to announce they signed with LET IT BURN RECORDS, who re-released ABSTRACTIONS which was re-mastered for extra heavyness and fitted with new artwork.
The band recorded their debut album DORADUS in March 2011 @ Red Left Hand studio with Sven Jansssens and was mastered by Alan Douches (Converge, Dillinger Escape Plan, Mastodon, ... ) @ West West Side Music.
DORADUS will hit the stores begin October. Packed with high calibre screaming, raging drums and twisted riffage, it promises to be one of the heaviest albums of 2011.
'WRECKTHINGS', the first single of the record, hit the internet a month before the release of DORADUS. Along with an epileptic videoclip it gives a taste of the mayhem to come. Check it out online NOW!!!

Out of My Head
Bear Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I don't know what this feeling is
Some say love some say lack of control
Since the day that you walked in my life
I've got a new lease of life in my soul
Hell the stars have been shining so bright
All the dark clouds have been blown away
And it's you that I owe it all to
Yeah I'm hanging on each word you say

I've never known this before
I barely recognise myself
If this isn't love then I guess
I better get me some help

I can't get you out of my head
No I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head
Out of my head

No I've heard that you might play the field
So baby tell me just how do you feel
When you hold me it feels oh so right
I'm convinced that this time it's for real
Yeah I'm putting my money on you
Baby please tell that I won't lose
I've been searching for you all my life
Yeah I'm totally rid of my blues

You pull the strings to my heart
Like no other has done
I can't beleive that I'm wrong
Yeah I'm sure you're the one

I can't get you out of my head
No I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head
Out of my head

You pull the strings to my heart
Like no other has done
I can't beleive that I'm wrong
Yeah I'm sure you're the one

I can't get you out of my head
No I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head
Out of my head
I can't get you out of my head
No I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head

I can't get you out of my head
I can't get you out of my head

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bear's song "Out of My Head" convey the intense emotions and infatuation that the singer feels towards someone they have recently met. The opening lines express the singer's confusion about their feelings, as different perceptions, like love and lack of control, seem to overshadow their thoughts. However, since this person entered their life, the singer feels revitalized and alive, as if darkness has been replaced by the brightness of the stars. They attribute this newfound happiness to the person they're infatuated with, hanging on to their every word.

The second verse reveals some doubts and fears that the singer has heard regarding the other person's tendency to explore romantic relationships with multiple people. Despite this, the singer sees a genuine connection and believes that this time it's different. They are willing to invest their emotions and trust in this person, desperately hoping they won't be let down. The singer expresses that their search for companionship has finally ended, and they are now free from any sadness or melancholy.

The repetitive refrain, "I can't get you out of my head," emphasizes the obsessive thoughts and fixation that the singer experiences regarding this person. They are unable to stop thinking about them, illustrating the all-consuming nature of their infatuation. The reference to pulling the strings of the singer's heart suggests that this person has a powerful influence over their emotions, causing them to question their own convictions. Ultimately, the singer is convinced that this intense attraction is genuine and that they have found their soulmate.

@Richard Bruton I disagree that Shameless was subpar. Maybe the last season but not the previous seasons. This role is very similar to Lip. I actually loved the way they wrote Lip even though it was frustrating seeing him make the same mistakes and keep coming back to Karen and then later on that blackhole of a marriage to Tami. Ultimately Lip is the unrealized genius and a cautionary tale. Out of all the Gallaghers, he was supposed to be the one who would rise above it all and he didn't due in part to his own demons. Hits close to home for a lot of people.

@helenem.4572

I like that next line he says "I was a cook. I still am..." Which I found interesting, because he's so fast and definite about the "death" of his career, but can't think of his brother as dead. And he continues describing his work, his success only to realize that it meant nothing. His only goal was to be back at his brother's plan. And in the weirdest way he does it in the end. The pasta recipe is such a beautiful ending for this monologue.

I've been cooking for the last 10½ years and have been a sous chef for about the last 4½ years. The way that this series depicts a chefs lifestyle really hits home in multiple ways. The way that anxiety, stress, depression, social isolation, etc. is portrayed is literally down to the T. Even the small details like drinking out of a quart container while sitting on a stack of pallets and smoking a cigarette right outside of the backdoor of the kitchen. Or a having a bottle of Tums in the bathroom to snack on because of stress related IBS. I really hope the main thing that people take away from this show is how much people in the culinary arts field have to put up with and sacrifice in the name of our passion.

This is exactly how people speak in AA style meetings. the writing and delivery are spot on for this.
They don't know what to say or how much to let random people in, they go off on tangents, stare at the floor, and they pause exactly like he does. It's almost like you're talking to yourself about this stuff. you're explaining to yourself as if you're someone else a sequence of events and often times it leads to epiphanies like him trying to fix his brother's restaurant to fix his brother.

I've never seen this show other than this one monologue, but man this is some quality stuff.

carmen is a special character and its proved clearly in this scene. every other show you have a main character who has friends, has partners, isn't overall miserable while doing what they love, but carmen is realistic. he never had girlfriends, doesn't have close friendships, avoids his family like the plague, and it takes him until his breaking point to realize somethings not right.

Huh. I just realized that this being almost 7 minutes in length, is maybe like an ode or symbolic for the seven stages of grief you go through when you’ve lost someone. White does a fantastic job at navigating through all the emotions. The silence in between the dialogue is perfect, the timing, the portrayal of all the emotions, you can really feel it. But going back to the silences you really see the difference between the emotions. Man, i can’t say anything bad about the show. I am already waiting for season two.

From someone who has worked in the industry as a chef for many years in both high and low, michelin and bar restaurants/establishments the monologs and the show as a whole is a great representation of a little bit of what goes on. Love the show. Hope for a season 2.

I see myself in Carmy so much it’s ridiculous, I lost my brother 9 years ago to an accidental overdose and every single trait he shows is embedded in me. The outbursts of anger, putting his needs aside, pushing people away. The only pain that comes close to losing a child is losing a sibling. A part of you dies too, and no one understands that pain till it happens to you. I feel heard and seen with this show, thank you.

It requires a different mindset. I’m willing to bet that this isn’t word for word what is written. The best actors have key points they hit on and the words between are their own. That’s how you get the real emotion. The real feeling. It’s how you keep from being wooden.

I just write it down by hand a couple of times, after that its repetition x100. It helps to break it up into chapters, honestly 7mins isnt that long for a monologue, ive seen solo evening performances, just think of Fleabag for example. The longest Ive done was 30min, skipped a couple of lines, mixed some up, but the audience will never know.

When i saw "7 minute monologue" before i watched the episode, i thought, "man, this is going to feel like forever." But it doesn't.

I've got to say, this is a great monologue with lots of power and emotions. I saw a guy use AI to have Jeremy's eyes face forward instead of looking to the side with a distant stare.

This is exactly how it feels to overcome something. Reminds me of pure math. I had blisters on my hands from writing so much. I studied 7 days a week. Never even went to a party for 4 semesters. I finished up until Multivariable in Highschool. I was 2 courses ahead of my Valedictorian in math. What most people don't know is that I failed Algebra I my freshman year cause I cared more about soccer, but I lost that when I got injured. People used to call me stupid and make fun of me. In fact when I started taking honors courses none of the other students wanted to be my partner and they mocked that I would quit the class in a number of weeks. Math was all I had. It became everything to me. It consumed me. Eventually I had to start taking courses at the college near my highschool. I took a 2.5 to a 3.9 by the end of my senior year.

The only difference I saw in my experience vs his was that once I reached that feeling of comfort, I didn't see the new people as competition. I saw them as victims, entering a cold and harsh world. I always wanted to help them. Just enough so they can find some comfort in it all. Just enough so they don't give up. If they can stand on top of that single mountain, then that fear will dissipate when they climb another.

I knew what they didn't coming into college. Which was the undeniable truth that they had been lied to. Highschool did not prepare them and their professors will not save them. In fact many will take pleasure in looking down on them and excluding them based on declared inferiority. I knew once I got to college that rigorous mathematics in itself is a battle of wills. It is the willingness to face countless failures and not be swayed by them. To walk calming into the abyss. It is the Agony and Ecstasy of balancing passion with emotional restraint. And all the change that can occur, will only occur within.
