Breakdown of the Single Illusion of Freedom
“Illusion of Freedom” reflects the troubles immigrants go through at the hands of immigration. This new single reflects Tarah’s moments of inconveniences with the law while seeking shelter as an immigrant. It also tells her experience of what other immigrants went through at the hands of the government’s immigration services. Growing up and spending most of her time in France, Tarah in this single relates to the predicament of many people, including some of her close friends and co-workers who were struggling to get their immigration papers. They live in fear of the authorities that would come and take them away and separate them from their loved ones, despite having lived there for more than 20 years, so they think.
The song “Illusion of Freedom” also tells a story about refugees who fled other crises to live in a foreign country, but not everyone welcomes them. The host nation’s government and some of its people don’t want to see.
The song starts with a very high tempo typical of the traditional rock song, with flaring metals and sporadic electric guitars. The instrumentals carry a touch of rage and pure determination that set this song apart from a host of other rock songs we have seen and heard this year. The song has exceptionally high octane and compelling guitar reefs that accompany the energetic vocals in its passionate flames. You can easily compare the duo’s music style with Foo Fighters, Alanis Morissette, and Pearl Jam. The drum beats are powerful, helping to unleash the sombre-feel lyrics that characterize the no-nonsense vocals. From the start to the end, it’s not difficult to tell that the song’s theme is significant and relatable, making you feel the people’s emotions and struggles. This is a very fiery, bold, and courageous song that every genuine lover of rock music will appreciate.
The “Illusion of Freedom” is available on Spotify and Apple Music, and similar other popular platforms where you can listen to the song and download it at will. It is a song that is worth adding to your playlist.
