1. PLAZA is an emerging R&B artist from Toronto, Canada. His first EP, One, was released in 2016 by Gold Sound Entertainment.
2. Os PLAZA surgem em 2004, e reúnem as forças criativas dos irmãos Simão e Paulo Praça (com carreira feita nos Turbojunkie, Grâce e Amália Hoje)), com a genial energia científica das electrónicas e artes finais de Quico Serrano (com percurso assinado em diversos projectos nacionais, dos Poke aos Ban, dos Três Tristes Tigres a Pedro Abrunhosa).
Em Abril de 2004 editam o 1o cd-“MEETING POINT”, conquistando de imediato a imprensa especializada (9/10-Blitz;5/5-Diário de Noticias;8/10-Publico, etc). O single “OUT!ON THE RADIO” antecipa a saída do cd, e em Junho de 2004 é já o tema mais votado pelo público no top da Antena 3.
Ao mesmo tempo é o single escolhido pelos responsáveis do marketing da empresa de comunicações TMN para a campanha de verão. Duas semanas depois a campanha começa a fazer efeito e a melodia “Listen to the sounds on the rádio”, torna-se a mais ouvida do momento (verão).
No mesmo mês de Julho sai o 2o single “IN FICTION”, que tal como o 1o single, entra directamente para a Play-list da Antena 3, chegando a 1o lugar do Top de preferências duas semanas depois. Por esta altura, o 1o single ”out on the rádio”começa a invadir as principais rádios nacionais.
Desde Abril que os PLAZA andam em digressão pela Peninsula ibérica, a promover o aclamado cd ”MEETING POINT”. Destacam-se as passagens por: Festival Tejo; Festival Sudoeste; Aniversário de Serralves, Fantas Porto, entre muitas outras. Como consequência deste sucesso os PLAZA são convidados especiais de Herman José no programa “Herman Sic”. Anteriormente passam pelos principais programas de televisão do momento: -Musicas do Mundo; Sic Noticias; Curto Circuito; Sic Radical; Magazine(Rtp2); Top +(Rtp1); O homem que mordeu o cão(Tvi); Sms(Rtp1); Ultra Sons(Rtpn); entre muitos outros.
A culminar um ano em cheio, são nomeados para os GLOBOS de OURO na categoria de Melhor Banda Nacional (ao lado dos The Gift, Humanos e Da Weasel).
Sete anos depois do sucesso de “Meeting Point”, os PLAZA estão de volta aos discos e á estrada. Com o single de apresentação “High on Stereo” a rodar em algumas das rádios mais influentes a banda de Quico Serrano, Simão Praça e Paulo Praça promete corresponder à expectativa que tanto tempo de espera provocou nos fans. O vídeo conta com a realização de João Rei Lima, mas o disco só deverá chegar ás lojas no final deste verão. A produção é dos próprios Plaza contando com a inestimável ajuda de Rick Webster dos Unkle Bob. Ao vivo, a formação também esta renovada com Pedro Martins a assumir a sua posição na bateria e Miguel Barros no baixo.
3. Plaza is a dreamrock band formed in Hartlepool. They released their first single, Blood Orange in June 2016. They released their debut album, A different state of mind, in January 2024.
4. PLAZA - True Wendigo forest Skintaker of Dying 4 Nothing Rap Collective with TRUCKR REAL, WITCHGOD, GELBOTT, & lil Boodang!

Plaza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You want to feel me all down your body (your body)
And I see the lights all behind you
Yeah, that silhouette lookin' fine too
I lean back on it, she gon' lean back on me
Can't pass on it
Yeah she got that ass on it
Wish you want me
Poppin' bottles plans go up, go up
Ride around the city with you, with you
Got me movin' down, yeah
Ride around the city with you
Night, sometimes
Different man in the night, sometimes (sometimes)
Same face and it's so
Someone tell her don't get too [?], no no
Saying you gonna see me fall, no
I just wanna move that, no
Faded with the purple light on
And it's 3AM to 5, you
Notice what I do
Too much and down
Yeah, yeah, you call me now
The lyrics of Plaza's song "Hold Up" describe a sensual encounter between two people who are in a mood. The singer expresses his desire to be felt all over the body of the person they are addressing. He admires the silhouette of his partner and leans back on her while she leans back on him. The singer is captivated by his partner's curves and cannot resist her seductive body. He asks his partner where she is and wants to pop bottles and go up with her.
However, the song takes a darker turn in the second verse where the singer reveals that sometimes he feels like a different man at night. He recognizes that he has a problem with substance abuse but does not want to stop. The purple light is a metaphor for the mood-altering effects of the drugs he is taking. The singer seems to be aware of his self-destructive behavior but does not care as long as he can keep moving. He also mentions that someone has told his partner not to get too close to him because he will fall. However, the singer does not want sympathy or interventions. He only wants his partner to be with him and accepts him for who he is.

Yeah, I'm in a mood, so
I am feeling a certain way today, so
You want to feel me all down your body (your body)
You want to physically experience me all over your body
And I see the lights all behind you
I can see the lights shining behind you
Yeah, that silhouette lookin' fine too
I must say, your silhouette is quite attractive as well
I lean back on it, she gon' lean back on me
I lean back on something, and my partner leans back on me
Can't pass on it
I cannot resist the temptation
Yeah she got that ass on it
She has an ample buttocks
Wish you want me
I wish you desire me
Tell me where you are hold, hold up
Please tell me where you are, hold on a second
Poppin' bottles plans go up, go up
Celebrating with champagne, our moods get higher and higher
Ride around the city with you, with you
I want to traverse the city with your company
Got me movin' down, yeah
You got me feeling low
Night, sometimes
At times, during the night
Different man in the night, sometimes (sometimes)
Occasionally, I am a different person in the night
Same face and it's so
However, I remain the same person on the outside
Someone tell her don't get too [?], no no
Someone should advise her not to overindulge
Saying you gonna see me fall, no
If you think I will fail, you are mistaken
I just wanna move that, no
I simply want to dance and move my body
Faded with the purple light on
Drunk and under the influence of purple lights
And it's 3AM to 5, you
It is somewhere between 3 and 5 in the morning
Notice what I do
Observe my actions
Too much and down
Excessively sad and depressed
Yeah, yeah, you call me now
Yes, yes, you are calling me now

@SaneMillennial
I agree that they're definitely up there for my fave sensual artists. You should check out Tender, Always Never, and Cigarettes After Sex too if you like them. I found them all around the same time. :)
