Ladykiller - Dark Synth Pop Instrumental - Jon Brooks Music
Dark synth pop cinematic instrumental music with a driving beat and mysterious undertones reminiscent of electro 80s music. Energetic, suspenseful, upbeat and tense with retro influences. The incorporated strings and orchestral elements express a dramatic and edgy mood. Ideal for crime, lust and suspicious behaviour and night time driving scenes. The tempo is 120 beats per minute (subdivided from 60 bpm) so it synchronizes perfectly with seconds of the clock.

ABOUT THE SONG:
Joanne Staples, Sales Director and mother of two wrote and produced this uplifting, emotional and empowering song alongside Film Composer partner, Jon Brooks, during the Covid-19 Coronavirus lockdown.
Initially, the track started as a fun project to ward off watching TV but the concept quickly evolved into much more… a musical message of hope and reassurance for everyone during this difficult time. When they posted it on YouTube and Facebook, their aim was to inspire friends and family; but it is growing in popularity, and currently gaining radio play in the USA and the UK for audiences around the world.
LYRICS:
Breathe, just keep breathing
Just keep going, time to face a new day
On we go, coming together
In these strange times
Alone, scared, fear building inside of all of us
Tears, pain, when will this all end?
We’ll fight this together
With love and compassion
Whatever the reason
We’ll win this ghostly war
United we’ll stand tall
Brave people, hear our call
Whatever we’re facing
We’ll win this ghostly war
Breath don’t stop moving
You can do this, the sun will always shine
Hope is in our children, so hold them tight
Love, peace, joy, inside of all of us
Change, forever, nothing will ever be the same
We’ll fight this together
With love and compassion
Whatever the reason
We’ll win this ghostly war
United we’ll stand tall
Brave people, hear our call
Whatever we’re facing
We’ll win this ghostly war
We’ll fight this together
With love and compassion
Whatever the reason
We’ll win this ghostly war
United we’ll stand tall
Brave people, hear our call
Whatever we’re facing
We’ll win this ghostly war
With love and compassion
We'll win this ghostly war
