1. Mayumi Ya… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least four artists under the name "Cindy":
1. Mayumi Yamamoto (山本真裕美, born May 5, 1958), known solely by her stage name Cindy, was a Japanese singer-songwriter, active as a singer from 1984 to 1997 and as a songwriter from 1984 to 1998.
She is probably best known for her song "私達を信じていて", and composing multiple Number One hits for Miho Nakayama, namely "人魚姫", "Witches" and "ROSÉCOLOR".
She passed away due to cancer at the age of 42 in Los Angeles, on January 12th, 2001.
2. A pop punk group from Auckland New Zealand
3. Kai Hugo, the dutch house producer rebranded himself as Palmbomen II in 2015 and released an ace album of psychedelic acid jams on Beats In Space. He named all the tracks on that record after various minor characters from episodes of The X-Files, but one of them – ‘Cindy Savalas’ – stuck somehow.
His next album, Memories of Cindy, filled in a fictional biography. Cindy lived in the small Californian town of Carmel Vista and died in mysterious circumstances. Hugo hired actor and model Blue LoLãn to give a face and voice to the character, and she sang on a few of the tracks – notably its blistering highlight, ‘Are You Friends with Amber?’.
Now Cindy has her own album – a pretty good, shoegaze-tinged dream pop record, recorded before the character’s ‘death’, with a loose narrative about her life, loves, and heartbreaks. LoLãn is front and centre, singing and talking on every track, breathing life into a character that has become an uncanny avatar for both LoLãn and Hugo.
4. San Franciso based group fronted by Karina Gill, together with Aaron Diko, Jesse Jackson and Simon Phillips. They released their first self-titled album in 2018, followed by Free Advice in 2020 and 1:2 in 2021. They are due to release a new album, Why Not Now?, on 14th April 2023.
Fixed Idea
Cindy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In "Fixed Idea," Cindy expresses her struggle with moving on from a past relationship. She ponders what actions she can take to change her mindset and forget about the person she's trying to let go of. Despite knowing that she could be content on her own, a glimmer of hope lingers in her heart, burdening her like a heavy stone. This hope interrupts her peace of mind and consumes her thoughts, causing her inner turmoil.
Cindy recognizes that the world seems to be on her side, with time passing by and life moving forward through the division of cells. Nature itself speaks of tranquility and harmony, yet for her, these reminders of peace only amplify her conflicting emotions. The desire to move on and find closure weighs heavily on her, as she yearns to abandon the sense of longing and infatuation that continues to occupy her thoughts.
The repetition of the phrase "oh if I could just give up" emphasizes Cindy's desperation to break free from the spell and release herself from this emotional entanglement. She wishes she could relinquish her desire for closure and move on like her rational mind knows she should. However, this longing persists, wasting her precious time and preventing her from fully embracing the present.
Despite having all that she needs in life, Cindy's heart continues to nag her, reminding her that she remains emotionally invested in the past. This persistent desire causes her mind to become overwhelmed, wreaking havoc on her overall well-being. The lyrics draw attention to the internal conflict she experiences as she desperately seeks to find peace and let go of her fixation on the past.

I wonder what it is that i can do to change my mind and forget you
I am uncertain of how to free myself from thoughts of you and move on
i'd be fine alone but hope weighs like a stone
Although I could be content on my own, the weight of hope burdens me
wrecks my mind all the world is on my side
My thoughts are scattered as the entire world seems to support me
time slips on and cells divide
Time passes by and life continues to progress
all nature speaks of peace but it brings me to my knees
Even though nature appears calm, it overwhelms me with emotions
this desire oh if i could just give up
This strong longing, oh how I wish I could let it go
break the spell and drain the cup
End the enchantment and remove the source of my desire
i have all i could need but my heart keeps nagging me
I possess everything necessary, yet my heart incessantly bothers me
wastes my time this desire wrecks my mind
This desire consumes my time and causes great havoc within my thoughts

But hope weighs like a stone, wrecks my mind
All the world is on my side
Time slips on and cells divide
All nature speaks of peace
But it brings me to my knees, this desire
Oh, if I could just give up
Oh, if I could just give up
Oh, if I could just give up
Break the spell and drain the cup
I have all I could need
But my heart keeps nagging me
Wastes my time
This desire, wrecks my mind
