1. Shoegazers Pia Fra… Read Full Bio ↴There are two bands performing with this name:
1. Shoegazers Pia Fraus started in 1998 in Tallinn, Estonia when six art school students (Kärt Ojavee, Kristel Loide, Rein Fuks, Tõnis Kenkmaa, Reijo Tagapere, and Joosep Volk) came together. Their first gig was in spring 1999.
After some concerts they started recording their first album Wonder What It's Like which was released in spring 2001 by themselves. Then they sent some demos to different labels and the next full-length album (In Solarium) was released under Clairecords (Sacramento, CA, United States) in summer 2002. Kristel Loide left the band and Eve Komp replaced her. Before the release of their next album, Margus Voolpriit replaced Joosep Volk. In autumn 2003 Clairecords released Plastilina EP which included tracks from Wonder What It's Like. At the beginning of 2004 Vinyl-Junkie released In Solarium with bonus tracks in Japan. In September later that year Mooie Island EP was released under their own label SekSound. In spring 2005 Vinyl-Junkie Recordings released compilation CD Sailing On A Grapefruit Lake in Japan which also includes two videos. Winter 2006 saw the birth of Pia Fraus's next LP Nature Heart Software released by SekSound.
2. A belgian industrial band formed in Aartrijke. They have 2 CDs. The band split in 2006 not long after the second cd was released
Chromatic Nights
Pia Fraus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You were so mysterious taking them to be around
Goodbye, I'm floating in space, tonight I see look you near
I can see behind your eyes, tell the truth not to the lie
You were so mysterious taking them to be around
Goodbye, I'm floating in space, tonight I see look you near
Telling stories from today what we did and what we said
You were happy and I just know we're scathing heather with every day
The lyrics of Pia Fraus's song Chromatic Nights is open to interpretation. However, the following is my take on the lines mentioned. The song seems to be about a relationship where one person is trying to see through the other person's facade. The line "I can see behind your eyes, tell the truth not to the lie" suggests that the person singing is trying to get the other person to be honest and not hide behind pretenses. The phrase "You were so mysterious taking them to be around" implies that the other person is seen as aloof and hard to read by the singer.
The chorus repeats twice with the lines "Goodbye, I'm floating in space, tonight I see look you near." This can be interpreted in various ways. Perhaps the singer is saying goodbye to the relationship, and the line "floating in space" implies that they feel untethered or adrift. The next lines, "tonight I see look you near" could mean that despite the goodbye, the other person is still very much a presence in their mind.
The next lines "Telling stories from today what we did and what we said You were happy and I just know we're scathing heather with every day" can be interpreted as reminiscing about the past. The phrase "scathing heather with every day" suggests that the relationship is not well, and everyday interactions become more and more uncomfortable.
