Weekend Of Mass Destruction

Multi-chart-topping prodigy Daniel Baron is no stranger to pushing the envelope of pop music, and holds nothing back in his latest offering. 16 June 2017 (Youth Day) marked the worldwide release of his highly anticipated third studio album 'Weekend Of Mass Destruction', which debuted in the Top 10 of the iTunes album chart. The monumental radio hit singles ‘Beautiful Noise’ and ‘Children Of The Sun’ (SA TOP40 #1 Hit) form only the ‘tip-of-the-iceberg’ in this explosive culmination of genre-jumping acrobatics he is famous for. Cinematic string sections unveil hard- style drops and collide with African deep house beats. Addictive pop-infused hooks belted out by Baron's metallic vocals form contrast to an array of organic dance with a near Middle-Eastern flare erupting in cross-cultural fireworks. It's an intricate but fearlessly crafted masterpiece as apt as the lyric "I like to play with fire" in the untamed rock/EDM hybrid 'Pyromaniac', and as honest as the hip-hop inspired soul-baring 'Piano Off The Roof'. Baron's signature youthful choirs echo through-out the alluring intro ‘Pink Atomic Symphony’ as well as the anthemic title track 'Weekend', which delivers the album's constant parallel theme of celebrating love and destroying hate in one colossal earth-shaking party. "Love is the reason that we can Armageddon on the dance floor", sings Daniel, adding a pertinent and prophetic message of biblical proportions: "If we don't love there's gonna be a rapture." Daniel speaks about his experience creating his latest work: “I have never been as proud of anything in my life as I am of this album. I have never worked this hard. I’ve put everything behind this project, and I have all faith in it. My only goal with this, is prove that music can create peace and love, and bring enemies together in one dance.” The chameleon of music — Baron remains a maverick on his love/war-path. “Weekend Of Mass Destruction” releases exclusively to Apple Music & iTunes, with 1000 limited edition autographed physical CD’s up for order.

LYRICS
[toggle title="Pink Atomic Symphony"] Don't think Love is atomic Paint the world (x2) Pink [/toggle] [toggle title="Weekend"] I've been tryna find an antidote A little hope A happy ever after But It's always been inside of us If we don't love There's gonna be a rapture When you see the fire in the sky Make love, don't fight Atomic hearts explode tonight Chorus This is the weekend, the weekend The one we've been waiting for Love is the reason that we can Armageddon on the dancefloor We gonna light it up Set the whole world on fire Oh woah So put your weapons down And let your love take you higher Send a message all around the world Africa to New York Broadcasting on all radios When they hear the sound of hate no more And loves runs to the core There's gonna be a rainbow When you see the fire in the sky Make love, don't fight Atomic hearts explode tonight Chorus [/toggle] [toggle title="Piano Off The Roof"] Check my pulse, I don't feel a thing I've been flying without my wings Found some songs inside of my soul (Back when) 808's killed rock n roll Now I'm living my symphony Dreaming in melodies Running from obscurity All my life I'm psycho-analyzing Defying gravity Girls are surrounding me Ebony ivory Am I a celebrity? Now I can hardly breath Chorus Sometimes I wanna scream out loud And switch off all the music Throw the microphone to the ground Drop the piano off the roof God gave me the pain and the bliss There's no leaving this Rocket-Ship Sometimes I don't get what I want But still I keep on chasing the sun Im living my symphony Dreaming in melodies Tryna leave a legacy When I die will they make a movie of me Pay me my royalties Don't want no drinks free Jesus is watching me Once I've said my Grammy speech Imma be outta dreams Chorus I'm stuck in this symphony Don't know what is wrong with I can't break these piano keys I'm stuck in this symphony Life gets loud but I'm still free Music helps my heart to beat Chorus [/toggle] [toggle title="Beautiful Noise"] This is the sound of something real Two

Flying on a prayer Gravity can't hold me down Im staying up here here I got no fear Thirty thousand feet off the ground I'm walking on... air air air air x2 When I cry I'm gonna use my to tears to

Where all the wild things go The air is sweet and the musics slow Untie your lace No one has to know The lights are fading, and we're all alone And then you hit me like a tidal wave Then morning comes, you tease the more I crave Chorus Listen to the music Girl there's nothing to it No one has to know Let me take you home Draw the curtains This is our private show Cue the lights (x3) Turn the camera on Lets can make a movie now I'll be director you can teach me how We don't have to wait Skip to the matinee We'll keep it going There's no other way And then you hit me like a tidal wave Then morning comes, you tease the more I crave Chorus Rap Chorus [/toggle] [toggle title="Blood & Violins"] When words become machine guns When all these lies turn in to truth They cannot kill this symphony We will not run We are the youth Chorus The war is over This is the sound of, a changing future We are soldiers Marching along, singing Hallelujah The same blood runs through all our veins We are sinners we are saints Look above This is Love No more blood Let the violins play More tears will fall From broken skies When music bleeds out we will heal These songs will live forevermore Our hearts will feel Now we will rise Chorus [/toggle] [toggle title="Euphoria"] I can't get any higher in this place God knows that I'm here and heaven ain't faraway I don't want this to go to waste Hurt me 'cause I love the pain The mercury's rising in my veins Chorus Euphoria (x3) Now I'm stepping outside of myself With your heavenly body that I know so well Take my Heavy metal heart to melt Cos I don't want no body else This waves getting higher than I've ever felt Chorus Euphoria (x3) Bridge You for me Me for you Euphoria [/toggle] [toggle title="Touch You"] Never knew that I was made to be with you Till i touched you Now I wanna be with you again I've tried to getaway a thousand times But when our bodies touch we magnetize It feels just like x2 The first time Chorus It's not that I need ya It's not that I want ya It's not that I need ya It's not that I want ya I just wanna touch you Touch you (repeat) Never knew that I was made to be with you Till i touched you Now I wanna be with you again Chorus [/toggle] [toggle title="W.T.F."] (Talking) Chorus What the funk? (Talking) Chorus What the funk? [/toggle] [toggle title="Electro"] If my heart was a machine You would be my energy If the universe was in my bedroom Would you spend a lifetime here with me Pre-Chorus Every time we touch The lights go out around us Time and space surrounds us The whole world turns to dust Chorus Could this be electromagnetic love (x2) Electromagnetic love My Darling we are one I don't need no crystal ball To prove that we're forevermore God wrote our love story before we met Our grand kids will tell it when we're dead Pre-Chorus Chorus I will never understand Just How your mind ticks on the second hand But when our hearts explode in a million symphonies It's beautiful electricity Chorus [/toggle]
