''The Other Side'' is the second studio album by Australian rock band Tonight Alive. ==Composition== Vocalist Jenna McDougall spoke to ''Alternative Press'' about the record: "There are definitely some sad songs on the album, and I think there are a few heartbreakers, but there are also songs like 'The Fire' that's a super-liberating, empowering punk song. I'm so proud of that song because the lyrics are really passionate, affirmative and positive, but the music is really aggressive. () "We are quite, not a bipolar band, but I think this album is really about finding our sound but at the same time also accepting that we don't have one particular sound. Not all our songs are going to be the same, and you can't put them under the same umbrella. Some of them are poppy, some of them are really heavy and some of them are somewhere in the middle. We found a balance on this record, and I'm proud of that because I think it's just being true as human beings. You can be at both ends of the scale."〔("Listeners need to know that even an artist is human:" Jenna McDougall on Tonight Alive’s new album ). Alternative Press. Retrieved 15 October 2014.〕 McDougall explain that there is "a lot more cohesive () I know my voice a lot better. I'm excited because the songs have got a very pop structure but () still got a lot of edge."〔Reeves 2013, p. 33〕 The title track was originally three verses longer but the band edited the track down.〔Slessor 2014, p. 63〕 This original version was more country-orientated and was inspired by "Your Guardian Angel" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.〔 It was edited down as the band expected the song to be released as a single and work "better as a radio song", according to McDougall.〔McMahon, ed. 2015, p. 25〕 McDougall found the decision "hard for me" as the song was personal to her.〔 The chorus was completely rewritten a moment before McDougall was going to record her vocals for the song.〔 It "tells the story of going from being friends to falling in love, and then the complications that followed before becoming just friends again."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Other Side (Tonight Alive album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
