With a name like Prema LaNay (pronounced Pree-mah Lah-nay) there’s not much you can grow up and be, other than a star. Really, can you imagine writing that on a job application or signing it on doctor’s prescription?

“As a kid, I didn’t hate my name, but it was odd introducing myself to people,” admits the Atlanta-based performer whose first name means “the loved” in Sanskrit (Indian) and middle means “awakening” in Hawaiian. “It wasn’t until I got older that I understood the meaning.”

Now that her identity is secure, the eccentric singer/songwriter is indeed looking to live up to her name and give music a much-needed awakening with her Interscope records debut The PREfix.

Described by Interscope co-founder Jimmy Iovine as “a marvelous writer,” Prema got her start penning personal short stories, that eventually turned into melodies and songs. Her talents didn’t go unnoticed for long as she began writing for small independent artist. Soon after, with some encouragement from fellow studio rats, Prema stopped letting people demo her words, and started singing them herself.

“The most difficult part of that transition was putting myself up front,” reveals the soft-spoken Prema who refers to herself as a “musical actress.” “I always wrote songs in third person for other people. When I had to focus on me, I had to find my signature amongst various styles.”

Whatever struggles she had, none of them were apparent on her first project, The Pre-Album. Powered by what she calls “theatrical” R&B, the CD caught like wildfire through industry circles, with her music reaching as far as London, Japan, the Dominican Republic and Canada. Prema’s international buzz lead to her signing with Interscope in April 2007.

Already being described as a cure to what’s become a stagnant music industry, The PREFix showcases Prema’s knack for writing Oscar-worth visuals. Songs like the mind-stretching “He Beats Me” depicts a victimizing emotion while tracks like “Loving a Junkie” and “He Got Blown Away” highlight her passionate creativity.

“I want my music to make you feel like you’ve been taken to another world,” explains Prema about her penchant for storytelling. “I want it to feel like I’m giving the listener a fix. Some people have drugs for that, I want them view my music the same way.”

On second thought, Prema Lanay probably could make it as a doctor.

Listen to the lyrics and watch the video.
Dry lightning cracks across the sky, those storm clouds gather in her eyes.
"Those storm clouds" = Her Tears. Dry lightning signels something bag, and she is crying. Why? She knows whats about to happen.
Her Daddy was a mean old mister', Momma was a angel in the ground,
Angel = Dead. Carrie's video Mother is dead and her father is probably so upset that he abuses her.
Alright, i won't go through the song.

Carrie says a twister is coming, but she plans to blow it down. Carrie plans to let the Twister help her, by blowing away every bad memory.
You can see her try to get her father awake before the twister, but she ash no choice but to flee otherwise they would both die.
She also says to blow away every brick, board and slamming door. These signal her bad memories and to blow them away.
When she talks about not enough rain to wash out the sins, she's saying there isn't every holy water to wash out every sin trapped inside the house, and not enough to rip the memories of her bad past out like nails.

Shattering every window means her escape to freedom.

She says nothing must be left standing, nothing of yesterday. Why? Because it will return those memories.

Quick break, it IS obvious carrie loved her video father, dispite everything, as you can see when she tries to wake him up, and looks around for something to protect him, but remembers the cellar. She even sits on the couch crying.

Every WHISKEY memory, blown away, means that everything bad with the whiskey must be "blown away"

Carrie hears someone screaming "Out" to her, possibly her dead mother.

Lockied herself in the cellar, and she listens to the wind screaming. She is listening to her father screams.

Carrie says that some call it taking shelter from the twister, but Carrie calls it "Sweet Revenge" Why? This makes you think she's okay with her father dying, but its not. carrie can finally hear the sins of thr house finally being lifted from her.

We also see her upset no the cellar bed. Showing she's not happy.

Finally, we see her screaming and shaking her head after running from the spot where her house was. The open field shows her freedom, but her running shows that she is accepting the freedom. Her head shaking as she stops shows the pain gets to her, and she still can't be free.

despite everything he's done and all of the pain he's caused her, in a moment of merciful human compassion, she tries to save him, not because he deserves it, but because it's a reflection of her character. But he's still passed out, not responding, and the storm is almost right on top of them. Yet she realizes if she tries any longer to save him, she too would have been swept away. Thus, at that moment she realizes she has to totally prioritize her life over his. She can't save him because he is beyond saving. In other words, you just have to let the abusers go, or they'll (quite literally, I'm afraid) drag you down with them.

It is really sad. That is actually how Madonna grew up. Her mother died when she was around 5 years old. She had two older brothers who seem like jerks and she was the oldest girl. And she is named after her mother so then her Mom dies, it must have been tough for her Dad to have this daughter with her mother’s name. I think eventually her Dad remarried but I don’t think Madonna likes her stepmother that much. Anyways, enough about Madonna. My Dad isn’t an alcoholic but he’s very verbally abusive and I’m sick of him. My Mom is in the hospital right now for some surgery she had to have done. I think both my Mom and I have had it with him. But she won’t leave him. I’m tired of all their drama, I need to get away from all of it.

Then, several months later he grabbed my arm in anger & I said ..never do that again, but he did.. second time I thought of this video. I ran away and he promised he would get help, but he didn't. 2 years and body scars later, it escalated to the point he almost suffocated me.😞

I do think we are better for coping and we can weather the worst storms in life because we had to learn . Some people like my children who never got smacked or In my case punched and beat on and they can’t cope with the smallest of things because they were always protected from adversity .

***** The way, they do it. Is songwriters send Carrie songs, but they don't put their names on it, so that way, Carrie and her label don't know who wrote it. And when Carrie writes a song, she puts into the pile, then she leaves the room, when they are deciding whether it goes on the album or not. She said that in an interview in Country Weekly in 2008.

As a kid about 8 years old I watched my father slap, punch, push and eventually knock my mother's front teeth out. My mother never fought back. I tried to help but was too small. He was a mean son of a gun. It still haunts me even today at 63 years old. This song somehow helps. Thank you Carrie.

As someone who spent 7 years in Nashville as a songwriter, this song almost gets me choked up at how well-written it is. The craft is impeccable. The lyrics leave little breadcrumbs to help the listener piece the story together. Such a unique concept for a song. What a masterpiece.

@michaellovely6601

3y↑8

I also really appreciate the music video for "Blown Away" because it was a slight tribute to "The Wizard of Oz." Carrie Underwood had a few easter eggs sprinkled throughout the video as allusions to "The Wizard of Oz." Carrie's dog Penny Jean is a nod to Dorothy's dog Toto. Carrie is wearing a blue plaid shirt and ruby red boots as a nod to the blue plaid dress and ruby slippers worn by Dorothy. For me personally I couldn't bring myself to listen to "Blown Away" after the devastating nonstop tornadoes in Carrie's home state of Oklahoma; particularly after the violent and destructive EF5 tornado that devastated Moore, Oklahoma on May 20th, 2013 wherein seven of the twenty-four fatalities were children who were killed at Plaza Towers Elementary School. When I learned that seven innocent children lost their lives at Plaza Towers; I couldn't keep myself from crying. This was the second time in my life that I have cried over the loss of young children; the first time was when I heard that twenty children were murdered by a deranged madman at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut on December 14th, 2012. If there's a silver lining to the tornado that hit Moore on May 20th; it's that the residents of Moore adopted a mentality of "Never again!" after the tornado and learning about the seven deaths at Plaza Towers. This galvanized the city council of Moore into voting unanimously in favor of tougher building codes that require a lot of safety features that can better ensure the safety of the residents of Moore and prevent future loss of life. These building codes require all new structures to be bolted to the foundations, less space between the bolts, reinforced garage doors, stronger windows, consistent plywood reinforcement of walls, hurricane clips to hold down roofs, and above ground storm shelters. In addition; all of the schools in Moore now have storm shelters because after the tornado that hit Moore on May 3rd, 1999 only two of the schools in the city had storm shelters: Kelley Elementary School and Westmoore High School. This was due to the fact that both of these particular schools took a direct hit by the May 3rd tornado. The residents of Moore never imagined a storm as strong or as violent as the one on May 3rd, 1999 could ever strike their city again. Unfortunately, the storm on May 20th, 2013 proved them wrong. I personally admire the strength and resilience of the people of Oklahoma because they know how to get back on their feet after a disaster, pick up the pieces of their lives, and rebuild their communities. This particular phenomenon is known as the Oklahoma Standard. You put yourself last and everyone before you comes first.

My maternal grandmother was an abusive alcoholic to my mother, and my grandmother loved my mom's brothers more than she loved my mom. I never had to endure the abuse of an alcoholic relative, but my mom told me how my grandmother tried to run my mother over with her car, and at the time, my mom was pregnant with my older brother, so she was 18. My grandmother even had the nerve to tell my mom she was lying after my mom told her that she was raped by her step dad. My mom had a rough upbringing and wasn't wanted by her alcoholic mom because she wasn't a boy. My mom didn't have a loving mother. My grandmother was mean. So I feel for those who have to deal with alcoholism in the family. My mom decided to break the cycle of alcoholism when she grew up and had us kids. I'm glad she did. All my grandmother's siblings were alcoholics as well.

I like country music (the newer singers are trash though), and I like Carrie not only because of her music, but I appreciate that she actually puts thought into her songs and how she interprets them. Like this song, about how alcoholism can destroy a family, Little Toy Guns is about confronting marital issues, The Bullet is about the struggles of the shootings that happened last year and Carrie's three miscarriages, that's why I love her and her music so much

Why even bother saying “I’m not a fan of” any genre of music. It’s ok to enjoy music from select artists and bands and not care for the whole community of that genre.

+Iheartpokemon I agree with most of you interpretation. However, in my interpretation, based on my personal experience, I interpret her mother being ''an angel in the ground'' as a mother living with an alcoholic father to a child (who is the one singing), and so he is abusing her (the mother) physically or/and verbally and diminishing her angelic personality so that she is ''an angel in the ground''. This is how I interpret it, probably because it relates so much to my own family situation with an alcoholic father.
