At 17 the story moved to England/Birmingham. there, practically overnight Zeebee became involved in the spectacular pig bag tour. Chris Lee & Roger Freeman from Pig Bag planned a tour of North America's clubs, staying in one hotel room together with Zeebee. Unfortunately, Zeebee's parents exercised a minor's veto...
Someday Zeebee had to return to Austria, where she was able to overcome the German culture shock, refusing to speak German and instead preferring to sing in English. Zeebee meets KREML, Austrian techno-freaks, and together with them establishes D-SIRE. With D-SIRE, Zeebee gains many indie fans in Switzerland, Austria and Canada. The D-SIRE LP "Moving back and forward" becomes a classic for many electronic-minded music fans. D-SIRE was produced by "Eisbär" productions Off Course Records in Switzerland. The single release was on the playlist of the then magnificent DRS 3 radio station for almost a whole year.
Zeebee has to start thinking seriously about earning some money. She devotes herself to copywriting. starts her own career, so to speak, and works with D-SIRE on a second LP, which never sees the light of day. Zeebee opens her own writing agency, takes flying-lessons, dreams of a career as an acrobatic pilot and still carries on giving music the Zeebee treatment in private, teaching herself how to record and produce tracks using Pro Tools and other great facilities. For pure personal pleasure she joins the jazzy "Anabolica" and the funky "Orange Coffee".
In the year 1999 Zeebee starts to work via the internet with the most diverse songwriters from all over the world. Drawing from many influences, Zeebee creates hypnotic soundscapes that push the boundaries of all kinds of electronic and acoustic music.
Chemistry
Zeebee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are some feelings dangerous
And revealing
To share a passion
Might be healing
And if I try to realise
What this might be
What if might be true
If there ain't such a rule
The chemistry
Between you and me
It's the chemistry
Between you and me
And if I try to
And if I try to realise
And if I try to
But if I try to realise
What this might be
What if might be true
Am I supposed to change the world
If there ain't such a rule
It's the chemistry
Between you and me
It's the chemistry
Between you and me
In all my heavens best
But if I try to realise
What it might be
What if might be true
Am I supposed to change the world
If there ain't such a rule
It's the chemistry
Between you and me
Chemistry
Chemistry
It's the chemistry
Chemistry
But if I try to realise
What this might be
What if might be true
Am I supposed to change the world
If there ain't such a rule
It's the chemistry
Between you and me
The song "Chemistry" by Zeebee explores the idea of dangerous and revealing feelings when it comes to sharing a passionate connection with someone. The lyrics suggest that the chemistry between two people can be powerful and potentially life-changing, but also comes with the risk of being dangerous and unpredictable. The singer seems to be questioning whether she should try to understand and pursue this chemistry, even if it means breaking the rules or changing the world.
The repetition of the phrase "And if I try to realize / What this might be / What if might be true / Am I supposed to change the world / If there ain't such a rule" highlights the uncertainty and complexity of grappling with intense emotions and desires. The repeated lines also create a sense of urgency and anxiety, as though the singer is struggling to make sense of her feelings and the potential consequences of acting on them.
Overall, the song captures the excitement, fear, and ambiguity of falling for someone and feeling a powerful chemistry with them. It suggests that these feelings can be both exhilarating and dangerous, and that navigating them requires a willingness to take risks and challenge the rules.
