“A monochrome of sound and art that fails the criteria of mediocrity.”
Over the years, this phrase has defined the music of Saydie, a five piece rock band formed in April 2003. Indeed, the band is best known for being pioneers in female fronted heavy music in the Philippines, with their debut self-titled album being one of the first to showcase a unique take on the genre in the local music scene of their home country. Over time, Saydie’s raw, aggressive and authentic approach to their music has earned them a huge and dedicated following.
In the 2010s, Saydie has managed to stand the test of time and continuously evolve its sound. This evolution is apparent with the band’s upcoming second album “Belita” from which the singles “Austine”, “Heather’s Prayer” and “Onyx” have been released – the first two singles gathering over 100,000 views on YouTube combined and the latter single topping the Rakista Radio charts for three consecutive weeks. Now a stronger band than ever, Saydie continues to aspire to greater heights of musical expression and success, with mediocrity being ever absent from the band’s vocabulary.
Saydie is Kat Taylor, Josh Madrid, Kurt Corpus, Monx Arguelles and Karl Kliatchko.

Saydie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
come and see what you made me do
Your cruel smiles are keeping me blind
look what you made me do
now that its over we're not
make no exceptions, when painful suggestions get too far
when you're alone do you lie?
read between these lines I.
bring us back to where we were, bring us back to where we were.
This damage comes in cycles

"Motion picture perfect monsters are acting up in silence" could be interpreted as how society and social media can paint a perfect image of someone, but in reality, they could be dealing with their own issues or struggles that they keep to themselves. "Come and see what you made me do, Your cruel smiles are keeping me blind, look what you made me do" could be about how people, specifically those close to the singer, have pushed them to a breaking point and caused them to act out in destructive ways. The line "now that it's over we're not" could indicate that the damage done cannot be undone and has permanently affected the relationship. "Make no exceptions, when painful suggestions get too far" could also refer to how people in the singer's life have offered suggestions or advice without truly understanding the extent of the singer's pain.
"When you're alone do you lie?" could be a reflection on the singer's own thoughts and actions, questioning whether they have been honest with themselves and others about their feelings. "Bring us back to where we were, bring us back to where we were" is a plea for reconciliation and a desire to go back to a time before the damage occurred. "This damage comes in cycles" implies that the pain caused by these issues is not something that can just be fixed or forgotten about easily, but rather it is a recurring cycle that the singer has likely been dealing with for some time.
Overall, "Heather's Prayer" seems to touch on themes of inner turmoil, betrayal, and the desire for resolution and healing in relationships. The song paints a picture of how societal pressure and personal struggles can lead to destructive behavior, but also highlights the importance of understanding and empathy in preventing further damage.
