One day, he decided that it was high time that he made some pop music that was a little different. Through a combination of retro synths, Commodore 64 samples, fast chunky drum riffs, and tried and tested lyrics, Frankmusik decided to get the ball rolling in 2007 and was signed to Island/Universal December of that year. His debut album "Complete Me" was released on 3 August 2009.
Frankmusik went on to changing his stage name to Vincent Did It in January, 2012, however he reverted back to Frankmusik in March, 2012.
The album, Do It in the AM, was released in September 2011 and peaked at number 178 on the UK Albums Chart.
On 19 October 2011, Frankmusik announced via his official Twitter page that he had parted ways with his UK label, Island Records.
Wrecking Ball
Frankmusik Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm closing the door
I can't bear to see
Your sweet eyes anymore
Every second that I stay
I'm sinking further in
To your clever little games
And the heartache that they bring
Don't you know by now
When I scream out loud
That I'm done with you
And the things you do
I can't run or hide
From your love or lies
Can I win a war
When you're changing sides
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it apart
It's like
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it, tear it
Picking up parts of me
Scattered on the floor
Reckless love is strong
I wish my soul was more
Terrified and scared to death
I'm searching for a way
To keep you more in check
Hear what I gotta say
Don't you know by now
When I scream out loud
That I'm through with you
And the things you do
I can't run or hide
From your love or lies
Can I win a war
When you're changing sides
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it apart
It's like
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it, tear it
Baby now I'm taking cover
You're my destructive lover
Baby you are like no other
Wrecking all of us
Baby now I'm taking cover
You're my destructive lover
Baby you are like no other
Wrecking all of us
Wrecking all of us
You're wrecking all of us
With a wrecking ball
With a wrecking ball
Do you really want to wreck us all
With a wrecking ball
With a wrecking ball
Wreck it all
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it apart
It's like
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it apart
It's like
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it, tear it
Don't you know by now
When I scream out loud
That I'm done with you
And the things you do
I can't run or hide
From your love or lies
Can I win a war
When you're changing sides
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it apart
It's like
Every time you tear me down down
Tear me down down
With your wrecking ball heart
Baby tear it apart
The lyrics to Frankmusik's song Wrecking Ball seem to tell a story about a tumultuous relationship, one where the singer is constantly being torn down by their partner's actions and emotions. The first verse sets the stage for this, with the singer closing the door on their partner and refusing to subject themselves to the heartache that they bring. The second verse paints the picture of a desperate struggle, with the singer feeling like they are being torn apart piece by piece as they try to hold onto their sanity and keep their partner in check.
The chorus is the most striking part of the song, with the repeated phrase "Every time you tear me down, down, with your wrecking ball heart, baby tear it apart" serving as a powerful metaphor for the destruction that the partner is bringing to the relationship. The use of the wrecking ball imagery is particularly effective, as it connotes a sense of chaos and destruction that is almost impossible to control or resist.
