Never Take Us Alive review by MelodicRock.it

By Denis Abello, MelodicRock.it

Groove, when empathy flows like a placid river between Artist, Music and the listener… meaningless words?

It might seem like this at first glance, but in reality they are words that find their interpretation by listening to a song like Never Take Us Alive, the new official single taken from the debut album Live Your Life by Michael Kratz, a Danish artist out on March 3 with his first solo work for the homegrown Art of Melody Music / Burning Minds Music Group.

An unconventional and overbearingly hypnotic voice, pure, direct and velvety guitar riffs by Dominic “Dom” Brown (Duran Duran) that play sensually with a bassline with a lethal charm.

The most magical and radio-friendly westcoast regains its place of honor at the table of great music thanks to an improbable Danish (Michael Kratz) Italian (Art of Melody Music / Burning Minds Music Group) axis.

The song Never Take Us Alive will be available from February 9th, thanks to Michael Kratz and Art of Melody Music / Burning Minds Music Group for this exclusive preview.

Lyrics

Never Take Us Alive

Look what we’re running from
They don’t know what’s about to come
They’ve been tryin’ to keep all of us
(In this) prison cell – it’s so obvious

But we’ve been growing in numbers
Enlightened and unafraid
And now the walls are starting to crack
Yeah, it’s time to react

This machine’s been controlling our world
But now it’s time to take it out
The truth about you will soon be unfurled
No matter how much you scream and shout

Wait one minute – the window is closing
And I’ll get us out of here
Wait one second – this party is over
(And) I’ll promise you this:
You’ll never take us alive

You’ve been infected by greed
Yeah, it’s like a sickness – How much do you really need?
And have you got anything left to show?
No, I didn’t think so

This machine’s been controlling our world
But now it’s time to take it down
I’ve got this match and I’ll burn
Your house right to the ground

Wait one minute – the window is closing
And I’ll get us out of here
Wait one second – this party is over
(And) I’ll promise you this:
You’ll never take us alive

SOLO

Wait one minute – the window is closing
And I’ll get us out of here
Wait one second – this party is over
(And) I’ll promise you this:
You’ll never take us alive
