1) Diorama is a darkwave band founded in 1996 in Reutlingen, Germany by Torben Wendt. His music was soon recognized by Adrian Hates of Diary of Dreams, so with his support and the support of Rainer Assmann (Daf/ Fad Gadget), a debut-album “Pale” was released in 1999. It was received very well both by the critics and the audience.
In 2000 Torben’s friend Felix Marc joined Diorama as a keyboard player, co-producer and backing vocalist. The second album “Her Liquid Arms” was released in April 2001. Despite its stronger rhythms and more forceful electronic sounds, the music preserved its distinctive atmosphere, established with the first album. The song “Advance” became one of the leading club hits and the band was becoming increasingly popular. The second album was followed by club-oriented single “Device” (December 2001).
Bassist Bernard Le Sigue joined the band the following year, and together with Torben and Felix saw the release of the third album, named “The Art of Creating Confusing Spirits”, the album was released in October 2002. During November and December of the same year, Diorama supported Diary of Dreams on tour.
After a long break and another addition to the band’s line-up (guitar player Sash Fiddler joining in 2003), the long-awaited fourth album "Amaroid" was released in April 2005. For the promotion of the new album, the band joined VNV Nation, on their “Formation” tour. In October 2005, Diorama released two more albums: A re-release of their first album “Pale”, with three new songs (“Don’t Be There”, “You and Ice” and “Crop of Illusions”); and “Re-Pale” – a collection of new versions of earlier songs, remixes and some previously unreleased songs. At the same time, the band went on their first headline tour throughout Germany.
At the end of 2006, Bernard Le Sigue left the band. On the 23rd of February 2007, a new single was released: “Synthesize Me”, a prelude for the next album, which was released 4 weeks later. “A Different Life” can be characterized as a criticism of the society ruled by artificial, deviant system of values. With his lyrics, Torben portrayed the revolt of the individual against the imposed principles and general degradation of true values and virtues.
"Cubed" is their seventh studio album, released on 19th March 2010. The figurative picture of a cube is the guiding theme of the album - a confined area serving as a living space be it as a stage, as a prison or as a shelter. This concept consequently features throughout the band's artwork and stage setting.
2) Diorama is an Italian folk rock band formed in 2003 by Antonella Colucci, Richard Rhodes and Alexander Sgura. Over the years the line-up has been slightly changed, and so far the band has released three albums. More information can be found on their website: http://www.dioramamusica.it
3) Diorama is a post-rock / math rock band from Peru, formed in 2011. The band invents post-jamming psychedelic landscapes with a math rock feel, very chill and very textured.

Diorama Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come on, dance with me, to the end of the world... yeah.
You...
Come on, dance with me, to the end of the world... yeah.
Still remember your smiling face, in the big crowd.
Laughing, shouting and waving your hands...
Staring at me, instead of turning away to the show.
Yearning for a solution, while the dance is returning...
Faster, and faster towards me.
The words in your letters, I couldn't decipher...
Never allowed to fall for the sun...
For, the rain is intended for me...
Come on, dance with me, to the end of the world... Yeah...
You...
Come on, dance with me, to the end of the world... Yeah...
Absorbed in the lips, of a graceful dancing princess.
Too deeply affected too bright the sun...
But my shadows have always loved you.
Empty stage, now, peace of mind...
Rememberance of the times instead...
Save another dance, only for me...
Only for me...
You...
Come on, dance with me, to the end of the world... Yeah...
You...
Come on, dance with me, to the end of the world... Yeah...
Unvoice my swaying promises, unproved the impossible...
I cannot fall for the sun, the rain is intended for me...
Come on, dance with me to the end of the world...
The song "Belle" by Diorama is a melancholic yet rousing track that speaks of dance, memories, and unrequited love. The opening lines invite the listener to dance with the singer, to the end of the world. The idea of dancing together in the face of inevitable doom speaks of a desire to live life to the fullest, regardless of whatever might happen. The second verse recalls a past experience where the singer saw a smiling face in a crowd, someone who stood out and captured their attention. Despite being blind in one eye, the singer stood still instead of turning away to watch the show. This person could not be deciphered, and the lyrics speak of rain being intended for the singer and not the sunshine.
The chorus repeats the invitation to dance to the end of the world, with "you" being the focus of the invitation. The third verse speaks of being absorbed in the lips of a graceful dancing princess, deeply affected but still holding love for someone who loves them not. The empty stage brings peace of mind and memories of the past. The singer asks the person to save another dance, only for them. The final lines ask to unite in dance, to the end of the world - an expression of finality, unity, and surrender to fate.
