“Music is my hobby,” says Victoria Duffield. “To think that this can be my job is amazing.”
Entertaining is not something Victoria has always wanted to do – it’s something that she has always done. The singer, dancer and actor from Abbotsford, British Columbia, is not afraid of being in the spotlight, as proven by her spirited debut single for Warner Music Canada, “Shut Up and Dance.”
The track, co-written by Victoria and Ryan Stewart (Carly Rae Jepsen, Suzie McNeil), is a brazen dancefloor anthem introducing an exciting new artist. “I want people to listen to the song and get lost in it,” she says. “I want to share my love of dance through songs that people can connect with, through both the lyrics and the beats that can’t help but make you want to dance.”
In the summer of 2010, Victoria caught the attention of Ron Lopata, Warner’s VP of A&R, after he heard some of her demos. “Not everyone has star quality but when you see someone who has it, it’s undeniable,” Lopata says. “Victoria has an unbelievable work ethic, mentality and love for music.”
Victoria, though a stage veteran, had to face a venue with which she was not yet familiar – the board room. “I just remained confident and sure of myself,” she recalls of her first meeting with Warner executives – a meeting that included a performance. “I showed them how hard I have been working for all of these years.”
The confidence is instilled through her experience. Victoria’s earliest performances included putting on shows for her family and friends, with a set list including the classic “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.” By age seven, she was singing and dancing to Broadway tunes in local competitions. Not long after that, Victoria, accompanied by backup dancers, started covering songs from some of her musical influences including Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue and Jennifer Lopez. Victoria was a Top 6 finalist on the third season of YTV’s The Next Star in 2010.
“The stage has always been very comfortable for me,” Victoria says. “I love engaging the audience and feeding off of them.”
Victoria is not just a musician, but an accomplished actor and dancer as well. Her resume includes more than 30 movie and television show acting credits, including roles in Smallville, Supernatural, Cold Squad and The Haunting Hour. She began dancing at age two, and as she got older, found herself training 18 hours a week and competing across Canada and the U.S. She is professionally trained in jazz, hip hop, tap, ballet, lyrical, contemporary and theatre.
Before she gets tagged with the “triple threat” label, understand that her skills go even beyond singing, acting and dancing. Victoria, a classically-trained pianist, co-wrote many of the songs she performs, including the songs “Red” and “Unpredictable” with Rob Wells (Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez) and Jodi Marr (Mika, Jonas Brothers). And she’s smart – real smart. Duffield’s average in school is an astounding 99%, almost incomprehensible considering her typical day consists of school, dance practice, dance training, voice lessons and home work.
“I set a very high standard for myself,” she says. “People don’t have to push me; I push myself even further.”
She pushes herself, not worrying about how many songs she can sell, or how much money she can make. Spoken like a true performer, Victoria’s measure of success will be the size of her audience. “The amount of fans that come to see me will make me realize that I am doing something right.”
Bulletproof
Victoria Duffield Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Right through the walls, I'm listening
You keep calling out my name
I'm running, running against the wind
Just to be closer to you again
I feel alive when we're face to face
Make it blast and last until I fall
Even if love is a memory
Doesn't matter now ‘cause you're here with me
When I'm with you, I'm bulletproof
Don't wanna' wake up if it's just a dream
I could stay forever and never leave
When I'm with you, I'm bulletproof
I'll fall into your gravity
Fill up on all the air you breathe
Nothing can pull me from this place
Don't go, protect me from everything
Push, pull me out of reality
I don't feel safe when you're far away
I feel like crashing
Make it blast and last until I fall
Even if love is a memory
Doesn't matter now ‘cause you're here with me
When I'm with you, I'm bulletproof
Don't wanna' wake up if it's just a dream
I could stay forever and never leave
When I'm with you, I'm bulletproof
I could stay up here forever
Higher than I could remember
And I don't wanna' come down
Now, now, now, now
Even if love is a memory
Doesn't matter now ‘cause you're here with me
When I'm with you, I'm bulletproof
Don't wanna' wake up if it's just a dream
I could stay forever and never leave
When I'm with you, I'm bulletproof
The lyrics to Victoria Duffield's song Bulletproof describe the powerful feeling of being with someone who makes you feel invincible. The singer hears the voice of someone she loves calling out her name and feels compelled to run towards them, even against the wind. She feels alive when she's with this person and like nothing can bring her down. The song is about the security and strength that can come from being in a deep connection with someone.
The chorus of the song repeats the idea that with this person, the singer feels bulletproof. She doesn't want to leave this person's side, even if it's just a dream. The song seems to be about the adrenaline and passion that can come from being deeply in love, but also hints at a fear of losing that feeling or losing the person.
Overall, the lyrics to Bulletproof suggest a feeling of complete surrender to someone you love, and a willingness to let them protect you from the dangers of the world.
