3) A rapper from New Zealand
1) The Finnish band Negative started as three piece during 1997 in Tampere, Finland.
Current line-up: Jonne Aaron (vox), Hannu "Hata" Salmi (guitar), Antti Anatomy (bass), Jay Slammer (drums) and Snack (keyboards). Negative's long time guitarist Sir Christus is no longer in the band. The band has decided not to replace him. Also Larry Love left the band (may 2011). He is replaced by Hannu "Hata Salmi".
Negative's debut single The Moment Of Our Love and the first album War Of Love has sold gold in Finland. War Of Love has also been released in Scandinavia, Italy, Russia and Japan.
Negative has already played a huge amount of shows in Finland and the band has performed in Japan, Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well.
The first single from Negative's second album, Frozen To Lose It All, went straight to number one in the official Finnish charts.
Negative's second album Sweet & Deceitful was released in September 2004 and the band toured extensively after that.
In May 2005 the album was also released in Germany, Switzerland and Austria and a tour in those countries followed in September 2005.
Their latest record Anorectic has been released in September 2006 and from November to December Negative are on tour in Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Finland.
Negative-guys have always loved the bands like Guns 'N' Roses, Hanoi Rocks, Mötley Crue, Kiss, W.A.S.P. and Finnish 80's rock/pop legend Dingo so it's not very big surprise that band have set their ultimate goals outside the borders of Finland. And this has been the case since the Negative's day one...
Negative's current line-up has been gathering together slowly. Jonne tells some examples.
Negative signed a record deal with Tampere-based Gbfam Records in 2002.
The band started the recordings of War Of Love in Cosmic studios with the highly acclaimed producer Lex Luthor (who has previously worked for example with Paleface and Ezkimo).
Negative toured extensively in Finland after the release of War Of Love. The band saw all the corners of their homeland, from fjelds of Lapland to the shores of southern Finland.
Negative's second album took shape under the overseeing eye of veteran producer TT Oksala (HIM, The 69 Eyes, Lordi etc.) during the spring 2004.
Their third album "Karma Killer" was released on May 7th 2008.
2) Negative is a Serbian rock band formed in 1998. After the singer Ivana Pavlović (now Peters), known as one of the best female vocalists in Balkan, left the dance quintet Tap 011 in 1999, she joined Negative and the band started working on their album. The first single, "Ja bih te sanjala" ("I'd Dream of You"), turned out to be a great success and the self-titled debut album followed in December 1999. During the next three years, the band had a string of successful singles, including "Svet tuge" ("World of Sadness"), "Ti me ne voliš" ("You Don't Love Me") and "Vreme je" ("It is Time"). In May 2000, the band had their first live act in front of several thousand people. The concert was recorded and released on a CD later that year.
In 2001, Negative was featured on the soundtrack to a Serbian thriller-drama Apsolutnih sto with the song "Kraj" ("The End").
Following a series of successful concerts in Serbia and Montenegro, as well as other former Yugoslav countries, the band released their second album entitled "Ni ovde, ni tamo" ("Neither Here nor There") in December 2002. The album introduced a new, heavier sound with a completely new, somewhat neo punk visual style of the band. The album helped the band gain popularity among alternative audiences. Single releases included "Bez promene" ("No Change"), "Tuga nema kraj" ("There's No End to Sadness") and "Konačan početak" ("The Final Start"), dedicated to Ivana's late grandmother. Negative continued to tour all over former Yugoslavia.
In May 2004, Negative won the festival Beovizija and ended up 4th in the final selection of Serbia and Montenegro's Eurovision Song Contest representative with the song "Zbunjena" ("Confused"). The song became one of the biggest hits of the year and announced the band's third album entitled "Tango", released later that year. Just like the title suggests, the album introduced a "softer", more romantic Negative than on previous two albums. "Tango" was a great success, with hit singles including "Tango", "Ljubav" ("Love") and "Čarobni napitak" ("Magic Potion"). The band continued to do what they are best known for - terrific concerts all over the region.
In May 2007, only several weeks after Ivana gave birth to her daughter Sara, Negative took the 3rd place in the national Eurovision Song Contest finals, the first one since Serbia became an independent country. The song "Prava stvar" ("The Real Thing") was festival jury's favorite, but viewers decided in favor of Marija Šerifović, who would eventually win the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 in Helsinki, Finland. Negative's last concert to date took place on July 15, 2007 on Exit Festival's Fusion Stage.
In May 2009, the band released their newest album "Spusti Me Na Zemlju" ("Land Me Down On The Ground") which again has a bit more powerful and heavier sound than the previous album. As to this date it still not known which single will be taken out from this album...
Creeping Inside
Negative Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She burned me out
I felt to protect myself
From her smile so divine
And I'd like to save her
But I think it's too hard
Too hard for her and for me
And she makes me feel
My heart is creeping inside
Together we can see all incompleteness
On a different way
She keeps on staring straight and true
It makes me weak
I felt to protect myself
From her eyes too divine
And I'd like to save her
But I think it's too hard
Too hard for her and for me
The lyrics in Negative's song "Creeping Inside" are about a complicated relationship that has left the singer feeling overwhelmed and struggling to save his partner. The first few lines of the song talk about the singer's partner and how her love is simply too much for his heart. He is overwhelmed and feels burned out, leading him to consider how he can protect himself from her divine smile.
Despite his feelings, the singer wants to save his partner, but he also realizes that it may be too difficult. This realization is something he wrestles with and it makes him feel as though his heart is creeping inside. In other words, he is struggling to deal with the various emotions he is feeling.
In the second verse, the singer notes that when they are together, they can see all that is incomplete in their lives. His partner keeps staring at things straight and true, which makes him feel weak. Again, he reiterates that he feels he needs to protect himself, this time from her divine eyes.
In the end, the singer wants to save his partner, but he understands that the relationship is too complicated, and it may be too hard for both of them. He struggles to find a way to protect himself while also being there for his partner.
Line by Line Meaning
Her love is too much for my heart
The intense affection she has for me is unbearable
She burned me out
Her love consumed me to the point of exhaustion
I felt to protect myself
I had to put up walls to defend myself from her overwhelming emotions
From her smile so divine
Even her simple expressions of happiness can be overpowering
And I'd like to save her
I wish I could alleviate her pain and struggles
But I think it's too hard
It may be impossible for me to make a difference
Too hard for her and for me
Trying to make things better may end up hurting us both
And she makes me feel
Being around her elicits a certain emotion in me
My heart is creeping inside
There is a feeling of unease or discomfort within me
Together we can see all incompleteness
As a team, we can recognize and address flaws in ourselves and our relationship
On a different way
We can approach these issues from a unique perspective
She keeps on staring straight and true
She is honest and committed in her actions and words
It makes me weak
Her strength can be intimidating or overwhelming at times
From her eyes too divine
Even her gaze can feel like too much for me to handle
