Stolen Dance: Music Analysis

Decent Essays
In the song “Stolen Dance” be Milky Chance which was released in the late 2013 in the album “Sadnecessary” became a hit this one of a kind song stayed at the top ten in over twenty countries (Stolen Dance - Milky Chance). This song is definitely a hit. The German composer Celmens Rehbein, was not even sure the song would make it way to the U.S. However, with the posting of Youtube the song and the composer got some great notice by the catchy beat the smooth lyrics. The first couple of lines from the song sound very lugubrious for example “no sun is shining anymore.” It sounds like the singer is very depressed, but it get worse in the line after “ The only thing I feel is pain caused by… you,” I think that this song cannot get any more somber.

(Most shows go up in four to six weeks and run for one to two weeks, while contest pieces rehearse for six to eight weeks and can run for up to six weeks.)…
