about

Cheap Red Wine is Muca & La Marquise new single.

Cheap Red Wine, a sad, sorrowful and fragile love ballad song, written and produced by Muca with La Marquise, the character Muca created, brings his musical vision with a beautiful and unique voice.

It’s a thoughtful and mellow ballad, building up to a big ending, reminding of a mix of Kate Bush and Fionna Apple blended with Chris Isaack’s Wicked Games

The music is accompanied by a beautiful video animation by Kelly Emrich, who completely captured a women’s moment of sadness and thoughtfulness

“When I first started storyboarding and deciding on color palettes for the video, I knew that I wanted to convey the aching loneliness, anger, and resignation that the song evokes. My animations generally tend to be emotionally driven over having concrete plots, so I wanted to give this song a companion piece that delved into the despair of the song. The swirling abstractions reflect the increasing inebriation of the girl throughout the video as red wine is bought and then steadily consumed. The video and song finishes as the afternoon slips into dusk. Overall drawing and editing this video was a great process. I work with hand drawn frame by frame, so it was definitely laborious but also really fun to create.”

lyrics

heap Red Wine- Muca & La Marquise

Verse 1:
It’s sad what it’s come to,
Really don’t care, expect it’s not you
Wouldn’t mind right now, a cigarette.
Trust me baby, I’ll have no regret
Might have to swallow my pride,
Do I really have to pick a side?
Afterall, I got mine, you got yours.
Everything happening behind closed doors
Both just as insecure,
Both trying to find a cure,

Chorus:
Drown my fears in cheap red wine,
A late night and maybe a white line,
White lies, why does it matter?
Not like you had a heart to shatter.

Verse 2:
Knew it was too good to be true,
You just did what you were expected to,
Learned some things about who you were,
Honey did you know, I knew about her?
Oh, now it’s all over,
So my darling why should I bother?

Chorus:
Drown my fears in cheap red wine,
A late night and maybe a white line,
White lies, why does it matter?
Not like you had a heart to shatter.

Bridge:
Almost got violent that night,
A sad street, and the green light
Oh the last time I let you in.
I couldn’t take all of it in.

Chorus:
Drown my fears in cheap red wine,
A late night and maybe a white line,
White lies, why does it matter?
Not like you had a heart to shatter.
