On the Album, Aren sings main songs about his relationship to his Dad, Karekin Emirze, who died unexpected, on May 9th in 2003. On the AGKOD Album, Aren invited several music friends for the recordings; playing Piano, a Cello or singing duett with him, like his brother Saro did.
An old Tape from his Dad, recorded in the Kitchen of Arens Childhood Home, is one of the Highlights of this outstanding Album.
During Arens career; which started at the end of the 1980`s with a Band named INTO THE VOID, where Aren and his mates reproduced Metal Songs, such as from Black Sabbath, Prong, etc., Karekin was,in most of the times around. He had a very intense and emotional influence on his son, giving him the space to do, what Aren wanted to do and helping him, to go this way.
ITV was in 1991, the source for changing their Bands Name into HARMFUL. Arens Bandmates from ITV, except the former Singer stayed the same. Being Nico Heimann on Drums and Chris Aidonopoulos on Bass
In 2006, they are still in Rock Business and recorded, a few weeks ago, their 7 th Album called "7",which will be released in February 2007. On this new Album, BILLY GOULD (Faith No More) was the main producer who got even, last week ago, the new Bandmember (2nd Guitar) for their next Years TOUR (www.Harmfulweb.com) throughout Germany and Austria.
Aren was even one of the founders of German Lyric Hardcore Band RINDERWAHNSINN, which toured Germany for over 12 Years, recording 4 Albums.
A GENTLE KIND OF DESASTER Shows us a new musical Spectrum of Aren. Here, his Armenien Roots explode into a goosebumping accoustic spectacle, where not to much singer/songwriters have a key to, writing songs like Aren did.
Wide Awake
emirsian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It’s time to dream on now
Monday you sign on
Tuesday you fight all the doubts
A sip of wine and then it’s time
Start all over again
Just le me know
If you can help me explain
I’m wide awake
Find out where you belong
Ask yourself whose mind was it on
A sip of wine and then its time
To start all over again
Just le me know
If you can help me explain
‘Cause now I live in wait for dawn to break
I’m wide awake
