Behind … Read Full Bio ↴Wangel is a Danish artist with Peter Wangel as the frontman.
Behind Peter Wangel stands the producer and co-composer Kasper Ejlerskov Leonhardt.
Wangel draws inspiration from Peters own at times tumultuous life, which can be found everywhere throughout the lyrics and the melodies. From fragility and yearning, through the promiscuous and grandiose. These songs all mirror Peters external and internal challenges in life so far.
The first single from the EP is called ‘’Seoul’’. The primary source of inspiration for this particular song came from a trip to South Korea in the summer of 2014. Wangel was hired to play two gigs at Koreas biggest music festival Pentaport, and played in front of thousands of new fans. This was before anybody in Denmark had ever heard a word about Wangel.
In the fall of 2014, Wangel also began to make a name for himself in Denmark, with radio appearances and support-jobs for fellow dane Kill J at sold out gigs in Aarhus and Copenhagen. In 2015, Wangel is ready to follow up the success of 2014 with the release of his first EP and shows booked at important festivals like Roskilde Festival and SPOT Festival.
Sun
Wangel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never been thinking of what you know about me
Making a maze in my mind
Never been thinking of what you like about me
Save me a place in your heart
I couldn't see it
I never get the time to be it
Couldn't see it
I Never get the chance feel it
Be cool around the sun
A part of me
Trying to make sure I'm strong enough to be
Taking the steps to your world
Never been thinking of what you feel about me
Making a maze in my mind
I couldn't see it
I never get the time to be it
Be cool around the sun
Couldn't see it
I Never get the chance feel it
Be cool around the sun
The lyrics to Wangel's song Sun describe the desire to be accepted and loved by someone. The first verse describes a sense of introspection, with the singer acknowledging that they don't always consider what others know or like about them. Instead, they create a mental "maze" as a way of coping with their insecurities. Despite this, they hope to be saved a place in someone's heart.
The second verse describes a feeling of frustration at not being able to fully express themselves or be around the person they desire. The lines "I never get the time to be it" and "I never get the chance feel it" suggest that there are external obstacles or circumstances preventing the singer from fully experiencing love or acceptance. The chorus repeats the idea of being cool around the sun, which could be interpreted as a metaphor for remaining calm and collected despite external pressures or insecurities.
Overall, the lyrics to Sun seem to convey a sense of longing and uncertainty, with the singer expressing a desire to be loved and accepted despite their flaws and insecurities.

Close to see
I am near but unaware
Never been thinking of what you know about me
I do not ponder on your perception of me
Making a maze in my mind
I am creating a labyrinth of thoughts
Never been thinking of what you like about me
I do not concern myself with your preferences
Save me a place in your heart
Keep a special spot for me in your emotions
I couldn't see it
I was blind to it
I never get the time to be it
I do not have enough moments to experience it
Be cool around the sun
Remain composed while basking in radiance
A part of me
A fraction of my being
Trying to make sure I'm strong enough to be
Attempting to confirm my resilience
Taking the steps to your world
Advancing towards your existence
Never been thinking of what you feel about me
I do not ponder on your emotions towards me
Making a maze in my mind
I am creating a labyrinth of thoughts
I couldn't see it
I was blind to it
I never get the chance feel it
I do not have the opportunity to sense it
Be cool around the sun
Remain composed while basking in radiance

This song is by a Canadian group called "Vinyl Sun" hailing from British Columbia. The album is called "Life Inside Lucy" released in 1995. It is definitely not Nine Inch Nails or Trent Reznor solo, Creed or Tool, or anyone else it has been miscredited to. Great song! The rest of the album is really good as well.
@48sharksOfficial
i panicked when i didnt see it by nin wondering it this was a fever dream
@U2SaxFan
I once downloaded this song, being credited to Nine Inch Nails. But I knew right away it wasn't NIN. For YEARS, I've been dying to know who did this song. And now, thanks to this, I now know. Always loved the guitar solo at the end. Great song, and, from what I see, great band (Vinyl Sun, I mean, even though NIN's a great band too).
@TheGildedStar
I'm a NIN fan who found this (due to the mislabeling of course), and I LOVE this song...
@cabelitostos
same thing, lol
@User.Google1
Love this song! It came up as NIN when I was downloading a while back. I think it got mislabeled because it was early on and it sounds very similar to Trent. Especially the beats. But I keep it under NIN in my iTunes.
@carlschurman5084
Definitely one of the best albums of all time. No. The best.
@chupathingy5862
Last time I heard this song, I had pulled it off of Limewire, recorded it to tape, and played it while playing Tony Hawks 2.
@carlschurman5084
Carl's bassline rushes a bit in the breakdown near the end. Other than that, the song is a masterpiece. This James Justin guy is brilliant. Lots of memories floating around the old noggin right now. Missing old friends.
@Kerunou
I hear some INXS + Orgy influence in there, man! Every song these guys do sounds like someone else! They're brilliant!
