Behrens’ vocal style and stage performances are unique and uncompromising, and he has drawn early comparisons to Freddie Mercury and Prince. They are not a band, but an agreement between two friends to create something that not only heals their beat-driven hearts, but pleases their rock ‘n roll souls. Turner is heavily influenced by electronic artists such as Daft Punk, Laurent Garnier and Green Velvet, as well as rockers such as The Animals, David Bowie, and The Clash. With their spectral blend of electronics, drums, guitar and vocals, they have emerged with a sound that is the culmination of past influence and present inspiration, and can only be described as BALLSY (with an intrinsic HOTNESS).

Ghostland Observatory is perhaps most famous for their energetic live show, which more often than not features seizure-inducing light shows, stage dives, uncontrolled rave pits, interpretive dancing, back injuries, pigtails, ominous capes, and thousands of dedicated fans who have traveled from far and wide to experience the madness since the band's conception in 2004.

Not to mention they're from a little place called Austin, TX.

Miracles
Ghostland Observatory Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, it's a strange time
Full of doubt and fear
Well, it's the right time
For anything my dear
The stone cold killer
Hasn't lost control
And the big bread winners
Playing with your dough

Miracles can happen
The fortune teller screams
The future's like the weather
Baby, there ain't no guarantees

White lies
Had enough

Wolf cries
Feeling stuck

The godless sinners
Have all changed their ways
The doomsday dinners
They're all making bank

Miracles can happen
The fortune teller screams
The future's like the weather
Baby, there ain't no guarantees
That's a guarantee

Miracles can happen
The fortune teller screams
The future's like the weather
Baby, there ain't no guarantees
That's a guarantee
That's a guarantee

That's a guarantee
That's a guarantee

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ghostland Observatory's song "Miracles" paint a picture of the tumultuous times we’re living in. The first stanza suggests that this is a strange and uncertain era, where fear and doubt have taken the forefront of the human psyche. However, the chorus offers a glimmer of hope, with the fortune teller screaming that miracles can happen. It seems to be a message of optimism that no matter how uncertain things seem right now, there is always hope for something miraculous to occur.

The second stanza contrasts the first one by painting a picture of people taking advantage of the situation, from "big bread winners playing with your dough" to "doomsday dinners making bank." However, the chorus is repeated to remind us once again that in the midst of all this, miracles can happen. The song ends on a repetition of the phrase "That's a guarantee," hinting at the assurance that even in these uncertain times, the possibility of a miracle is something that should never be doubted.

Overall, this song encourages listeners to remain hopeful no matter what challenges they may face. It speaks to the idea that we never know what the future holds, but the possibility of something miraculous coming out of it should never be discounted.
