Place of Burning – “Carolyn” music video

“Say what you mean, are you able? Are you Cain? Do what you can to help me understand your planet. Enchanted, I can’t stand it. Carolyn, will you take me home? Your love is blood from a stone. Hard to get and harder to let go. I’m holding on, to what? I need to know.” – lyrics

‘Carolyn’ tells an intriguing tale about a guy who experiences a dreadful love relationship with his significant other. One day, he sees her talking in the back room of a bar, then walking to the back door of another man’s vehicle. Later, he tells her she’s to blame for her departure, “Look what you’ve done, look what you made me do. This wasn’t me, this was you.”

‘Carolyn’ is a song about desire, jealousy, and infatuation-turned-tragedy. It contains a relatable narrative and possesses eerie instrumentation flavored with alternative, lo-fi, electronic, and synth-pop elements. Furthermore, “Carolyn” serves as a tasty appetizer to what listeners can expect to hear from Place of Burning and Francesco Parodi in the near future as they continue to release new music.

“Your love is blood from a stone, hard to get and harder to let go.”

Place of Burning creates electronic music influenced by the likes of Muse, Radiohead, and Daft Punk. In early 2020, Place of Burning heard an eerie voice carry down Grafton Street in Dublin, Ireland. The voice belonged to Francesco Parodi, and “Carolyn” is the result of the duo’s collaboration.
