Coridian is ready to release their first single of 2021 with their debut cover of Chris Isaak’s iconic 80’s classic Wicked Game.
While there have been several versions covered and released over the years, Coridian takes the song in a whole new climatic direction. Keeping the understated beauty and sadness of the original yet putting Maharaj’s signature spin on the vocals, with the Raven’s solid backing of progressive soundscape.
The Band states “We really wanted to add our own spin to the songs meaning by including the love we have for our whenua & Aotearoa. We follow the mantra, always leave something better than you found it”
You need to listen to Coridian’s Wicked Game to fully capture this ballad and epic rock ascension.
‘Wicked Game’ represents the first of many singles to drop from the 4th and final elements full length album, ‘Hava’.
lyrics
Wicked Game
[Verse 1]
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't wanna fall in love
No, I don't wanna fall in love
With you, With you
[Verse 2]
What a wicked game you play, to make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna fall in love!
No, I don't wanna fall in love! With you
(this world is only gonna break your heart)
[Verse 3]
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
