Bending Grid - Synthwave Marionette
Official music video by Bending Grid™ performing “Synthwave Marionette" (Audio & Subtitles).
Featuring vocals from Alexis Dimitriou of “Lost in Wonderland” and backing vocals from Nick Jones. The "Marionettes" single is packaged in 3 different versions with each genre being personified as a different marionette.
"Retrowave Marionette"
This version is all about mimicking the styles made popular in the original 80s boom period as closely as possible. Similar sounds can be heard from artists Freeweights and Forêt De Vin.

"Synthwave Marionette" [You’re listening to this version]
This version draws inspiration from 1980s films, video games, and cartoons. Synthwave has been used in the highly popular soundtracks of films such as Drive, Tron: Legacy, and the Netflix series Stranger Things. Think “Blinding Lights” by The Weeknd and songs by Dua Lipa.
"Darkwave Marionette"
This version is characterized by minor key tonality, dark, bleak, and with undertones of sorrow. Bending Grid collaborated with Synth Lovers Cafe to produce this darker side of the Marionettes single.

Lyrics:
Hoping for love, but fantasy
A merry go round is what it seems
Jack isn't nimble, Jack isn't quick
Always falling over dimming candlesticks
A spreading nothing consuming dreams
Knocked me out fantasia so suddenly, no
Uh-oh, uh-oh
Drawn into it again
You set it up, I fell right in
And I'm played like a fool
When you pull the strings
You set it up, I fell right in
And I'm played like a fool
When you pull the strings
You set it up, You set me up
All that I can is never enough
Never know the side you're waking up on
Nine lives lost, but you vow it's three
Always shifting the position so eloquently
Fuel up the fire or lest be dead
Swimming in elegy over my head
Uh-oh, uh-oh
Drawn into it again
You set it up, I fell right in
And I'm played like a fool
When you pull the strings
You set it up, I fell right in
And I'm played like a fool
When you pull the strings
You set it up, you set me up
Oh
Ooh yeah
Oh
Drawn into it again
You set it up, I fell right in
And I'm played like a fool
When you pull the strings
You set it up, I fell right in
And I'm played like a fool
When you pull the strings
You set it up, I fell right in
And I'm played like a fool
While you pull the strings
You set it up, You set me up
