Today The Roop introduced a new track “Pavasaris” (“Spring”) along with a vibrant music video. According to the musicians, the song is about the awakening of nature and everyone's inner self. About moving forward and openness.
Everything was filmed in two locations in Lithuania - a Botanical Garden in Kaunas and a studio in Vilnius. The music video was directed by a young promising director Rokas Makarevičius. What’s interesting is that in the lyrics you might also recognise verses from classic Lithuanian literature.
“In the lyrics of the song, we purposefully used the “Spring Joys” section of K. Donelaitis's poem “The Seasons”. We wanted to incorporate Lithuanian literary classics into modern music. So you will definitely hear the motifs of “Jau saulelė vėl atkopdama…” (“Now the sun rose again…”). We are happy with the result,” - smiled leader Vaidotas Valiukevičius.
At the same time, in this track, for the first time, you can hear Vaidotas rapping. Although the musician himself says that it is more a recitation of lines of K. Donelaitis. One way or another, it gives the song a whole new flavor. Hear for yourself.
