Escaping to a Modern-Day Paradise: A Journey of Love and Resilience
Nicky Romero's song "Paradise (feat. Deniz Koyu & Walk off the Earth)" is a vibrant anthem that explores themes of love, resilience, and escapism. The lyrics paint a picture of two individuals who find solace and joy in each other's company, regardless of the chaos and negativity surrounding them. The repeated refrain, "When we're bringing back paradise," suggests that their love creates a personal utopia, a sanctuary where they can escape from the world's troubles and judgments.
The song's verses delve into the idea of ignoring societal pressures and criticisms. Lines like "People talk, just let them talk, we're better than that" and "People hate, just let them hate, we're better than that" emphasize the importance of focusing on what truly matters—each other. This defiance against external negativity is a powerful message, encouraging listeners to prioritize their happiness and relationships over the opinions of others. The mention of meeting on a "high of Saturday night" symbolizes a time of freedom and celebration, further reinforcing the theme of escapism.
Musically, the collaboration with Deniz Koyu and Walk off the Earth adds layers of energy and emotion to the track. The upbeat tempo and catchy melody complement the song's optimistic message, making it a feel-good anthem for anyone seeking a break from life's challenges. The imagery of being "million miles away" and "way up high" evokes a sense of transcendence, suggesting that love can elevate us above our struggles and bring us closer to a state of blissful paradise.
