1.OLIVIA (OLIVIA inspi' REIRA (TRAPNEST)) is stage name for japanese singer Olivia Lufkin, born on December 9, 1979 in Naha, Okinawa, Japan. She is the daughter of an American father and a Japanese mother. Olivia attended the Okinawa Actors School, alma mater of famous artists like 安室奈美恵 (Namie Amuro). She was discovered there and signed to Avex Trax in 1996 as part of the idol girl group D&D, which had an Eurobeat sound. When the group disbanded, OLIVIA became a solo artist. In contrast to her work with D&D, her first single, I.L.Y. ～欲望～ (I.L.Y. ~Yokubou~), released in 1999, had a driving rock sound. Her first two singles were written by others, but she wrote her third single, Dear Angel, and all her singles since then.
In 1999 and 2000, she released six singles altogether, all with a pop-rock or alternative sound, and at the end of the year, released her first album synchronicity, containing all her singles to date. In 2001 and 2002, she released two more singles.
Although critically acclaimed, her solo singles were not chart toppers; her biggest hits, her second and third singles, both peaked at #29 on the Oricon, and her successive releases charted lower and lower (her final single peaked at #99). Avex Trax switched her from the main label to their "indies" label cutting edge. Rather than chase after mainstream success, OLIVIA continued on her own path. In 2003, she released 4 mini-albums instead of singles with macabre yet whimsical titles such as Comatose Bunny Butcher. Likewise, her music became both darker and cuter. These mini-albums contained only English songs.
In 2004, she released her second album, The Lost Lolli, which was also all in English. This album peaked at #111 on the Oricon. However, Avex Trax released an overseas version of this album, reflecting OLIVIA's increasing success outside of Japan (typically, only chart-topping artists release overseas versions of their albums).
After releasing The Lost Lolli, OLIVIA went on an unofficial hiatus (except for a performance at the Halloween of the Living Dead hosted by HYDE on October 30, 2005) and worked as a fashion model and designer. In 2006, it was announced that she would be recording the closing song for the new NANA anime under the name OLIVIA inspi' REIRA (TRAPNEST). The show debuted on April 5, 2006. The single was released on June 28, and debuted in the Top 10 of the Oricon daily charts, her first single to do so.
OLIVIA confessed that the hiatus was because at the time of The Lost Lolli's release, she was "feeling pretty depressed", and "started to notice and realize a lot of her faults". Her musical tastes had changed and she realized her need for help in making music.
In the fall of 2006, OLIVIA anounced that she would be releasing a new mini-album on January 2007, entitled The Cloudy Dreamer. In addition to the several songs she recorded for the NANA anime, the mini-album featured a new song called Dream Catcher, which was used as the ending theme for the live action television drama series of 地獄少女 (Jigoku Shoujo).

2. Olivia (Olivia Theresa Longott, born on February 15, 1981) is an American R&B singer. In 2000, she became the first artist signed to Clive Davis' J Records. Her self-titled debut album, Olivia, was released in 2001 and featured the singles Bizounce, which made #15 on the charts, and Are U Capable. The album debuted at number fifty-five and was RIAA certified Gold on November 2002. At the time of the album's certification, Olivia had already been released from J Records, signing to Interscope Records.
In 2004, Olivia re-emerged as the first woman signed to G-Unit's label, G-Unit Records. She contributed vocals to the trio's debut album Beg for Mercy and to 50 Cent's The Massacre, including the album's number-one single Candy Shop.
Her first solo single released via G-Unit Records was Twist It, featuring fellow G-Unit member Lloyd Banks, followed up by So Sexy in the summer of 2005. Both songs failed to debut on the charts due to little promotion. Olivia briefly attended Hofstra University in New York and planned her second album, Behind Closed Doors, which was slated for a 2007 release on Interscope and G-Unit Records. Around the same time, Olivia contributed vocals to Shaggy's single Wild 2Nite. Olivia released her single Best Friend, featuring 50 Cent, in 2006. In 2011, Olivia embarked on a Reality Show venture with VH1 titled "Love & Hip-Hop" which lead to the itunes release her 1st single in over 5 years titled "December". This time around Olivia has hung up her gangsta swagger, singing about the promise of love.

3.Brazilian psychedelic-progressive rock band fronted by Olívia Byington. Psychedelic and art-rock styles are strongly mixed with Bossa Nova creating an unusual sound.

5. Olivia was a French pop singer, considered to be part of the yéyé genre. She released just one single/EP: Moi je ramasse des coquillages in 1966. The record contained four songs.

6. Polish DJ/producer Olivia initially known for being a key resident DJ at Unsound festival in her hometown, Krakow, has also played at clubs and other festivals such as Berghain, De School, Tresor, Golden Pudel, Dekmantel and Nachtdigital.

Denial
Olivia Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Little owls bring me messages
Transparent envelopes
Given by black daisies
and through enormous telescopes
Addressed the white crow
Sent it out
Was it meant to get to me?

I can hear you
I'm just playing it cool
Bones quiver gently
Vexing blood river
flux to the tip of my feathers
I laugh at your eagerness
Fruitful dandelion heartache is repelling you yet
How am I to turn around on my own?
Who's to blame
for what has become?

Do you wanna be in denial?
You wanna be in denial?
Must I sacrifice this heart
to live this life, the picture?
Keep on holding on
I want to be around love

Wondrous wondrous
stars of the night
Make all the fury go out of sight
Accord me the strength
Send it out
Send it out
Send it out

Your violence is trickling inside me
Yet I'm to remain halcyon

Do you wanna be in denial?
You wanna be in denial?
Must I sacrifice this heart
to live this life, the picture?

Keep on holding on
I want to be around love

Overall Meaning

In the opening stanza, the singer mentions receiving messages from little owls in transparent envelopes, given by black daisies, and sent by the white crow through enormous telescopes. She questions whether this message was meant for her. The image of owls, daisies, and crows suggests a mystical or supernatural quality to the message. The singer references bones quivering gently and blood vexing like a river, evoking a sense of emotional agitation. She laughs at the eagerness of her intended recipient, acknowledging their interest but perhaps not fully reciprocating it. She wonders who is to blame for what has become and how she can turn around on her own.

The chorus - "Do you wanna be in denial? / You wanna be in denial? / Must I sacrifice this heart / to live this life, the picture?" - portrays the internal conflict of the singer. She feels as though her heart must be sacrificed to make the picture of her life work, yet also desires to be around love. She asks the listener if they really want to be in denial, perhaps suggesting that they are not fully acknowledging their feelings towards her.

In the second stanza, the singer calls upon the stars of the night to make the fury go out of sight and to accord her strength. She questions how she can remain halcyon, or calm and peaceful, despite the violence she feels trickling inside of her. The repetition of "send it out" at the end of the stanza could refer to the need to release this violence, or to send out a message of strength and resolution.
