Krystl (her real name) is a happy 28-year-old singer who, as a child, focused on dancing. When she was seventeen she noticed she could sing and found an even bigger passion in singing than she had previously found in dancing. She got accepted to the conservatory in Rotterdam,Netherlands by accident: she went along to sing at the audition of a friend. One of the teachers was so impressed by Krystl's voice that she offered Krystl an education on the school. After a year Krystl switched conservatories and started studying in Enschede, where she graduated.
Meanwhile Krystl got a lot of experience from singing with multiple bands, especially being the lead singer in the band L.I.N.E. The band split up a few days before they were supposed to sign their recording contract. Thankfully Universal offered Krystl the chance to sign a contract of her own so she could pursue a solo career.
Krystl has spent the past two years figuring out what musical style fitted her best. The first result was the single 'Golden Days', which immediately entered the charts. The song became 3FM Megahit which resulted in Krystl becoming one of 3FM's 'Serious Talents' and two nominations for the 3FM Awards. 'I couldn't have wished for a better start with 'Golden Days'. The song is a good representation of my album 'Rolling', which features songs that are easy to listen to, just like 'Golden Days''. After 'Golden Days', Krystl released two other successfull singles, 'Bottles' and 'Fool For You'.
Krystl's record reminds of summer. 'It definitely has a summer vibe; I'd play it on a warm evening with the windows open. Or in the car, to cheerfully drive towards your destination. It's not a record that's meant to be played as background music, the songs are too catchy for that. I suggest people dance to them!'

Krystl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I fell in love like a girl,
Living in a picture perfect world!
Something can't sneak in underneath…
And we bottled it up,
'Till we both had enough and we make a scene!
Chorus: (x2)
That we all torn up,
Look at all the glass on the floor!
Bottles, bottles, yeah we mess things up,
And I don't even know what we're fighting for!
Love is for empty hearts,
Why you give your heart away?
You never know how they bring me ...one day!
All I wanted was for us to have trust,
But I guess it wasn't good enough
The only way ...wasn't meant for us
Even though we tried!
Chorus: (x2)
All these broken bottles, bottles
That we all torn up,
Look at all the glass on the floor!
Bottles, bottles, yeah we mess things up,
And I don't even know what we're fighting for!
Look at us now,
Fighting more!
Look at us God,
We fight so more!
It's all we do,
Not all that's left of me and you!
Chorus: (x2)
All these broken bottles, bottles
That we all torn up,
Look at all the glass on the floor!
Bottles, bottles, yeah we mess things up,
And I don't even know what we're fighting for!
Can't remember what we're fighting for!
In Krystl's song "Bottles," the lyrics touch on the complexities within a troubled relationship. The song's theme revolves around the idea that even the most perfect relationship may face issues, and these problems may be bottled up instead of being addressed. The singer of the song had fallen in love with someone who seemed cool at first, but as the relationship went on, things became challenging.
The lyrics talk about how despite trying to keep everything contained, sooner or later, it all boils over, leading to a messy end. The chorus talks about the broken bottles, which are a metaphor for the turmoil and destruction within the relationship. The song's bridge emphasizes the pain and sorrow that comes with fighting in a relationship and the absence of trust between the two people involved. Finally, the lyrics express the frustration that comes when things go down the drain, and the characters realize they do not even remember why they were fighting in the first place.
In summary, Krystl's "Bottles" discusses the struggles and complications that can occur in a relationship, highlighting how bottling up emotions and problems can lead to an explosive end.
