ANNIKA Music
ANNIKA - The Death Of Me (Official Music Video)
Taking a page out of Shania Twain’s book, ANNIKA is kicking things up a notch by combining classic country with a twist of pop. “The Death Of Me” is energetic, bluesy, and showcases a lighter, sassier side to ANNIKA. The video captures the heart of the song and ANNIKA’s spirit at the same time. It gives us all a glimpse of what it may be like to see ANNIKA on stage, rocking out at the piano, singing at the top of her lungs, and leaving it all on the stage. © 2022 Hollyburn Productions Ltd. Directed and shot by Oliver Banyard. Written by ANNIKA, Spencer Cheyne, Aaron Pollock, Devin Cooper and Christopher Yurchuck. Website: https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/annikalivmusic/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/annikalivmusic/ LYRICS It won’t be the smokes I smoked It won’t be the drinks I drank My house goin’ up in flames or my plane goin’ down It won’t be high cholesterol Or somethin’ that ain’t my fault I know exactly what’s gonna put me 6 feet in the ground You’re the crooked streak of lightnin’ The head-on car crash drivin’ The final nail in the coffin, the very last breath I’ll breathe So take me fast or take me slow You’re the way I wanna go I can already see You’ll be the death of me I know my fate is sealed With every kiss you steal You’re good for my soul even though you’re bad for my health You can make an angel fall And I know that I’m as good as gone So take me to heaven cause I don’t want nobody else You’re the crooked streak of lightnin’ The head-on car crash drivin’ The final nail in the coffin, the very last I’ll breathe So take me fast or take me slow You’re the way I wanna go I can already see You’ll be the death of me I don’t know when the end is coming But I know I won’t be running from it ‘Cause I surrendered, I surrendered the day I met you Hey, yeah You’re the crooked streak of lightnin’ The head-on car crash drivin’ The final nail in the coffin, the very last breath I’ll breathe So take me fast or take me slow You’re the way I wanna go I can already see You’ll be the death of me I can already see you’ll be the death of meto do But I really don't want to #annika #thedeathofme #standstill

Partially funded by The Calgary Arts Development Lyrics: Take your heart Like a drink off a tray Play the part Cause we wrote it that way Every year that goes by Doesn’t change the way it feels I’m alright With the highs and the lows In a place Only you and I know But I’m through Waiting round for a better kind of you If you wanna go on hiding from yourself Would you be so kind take me off your shelf? In times like these you turn and walk the other way Until you find something that makes you wanna stay Play for keeps Or don’t play it at all Why’d you cheat When you’re just gonna fold But I don’t care, I don’t care About the games you’re playing now I’m on fire But I can’t be burned again This desire’s Got me spinning Moving on Finally knowing how much I gave to you

Reuben And The Dark Live At OCL Studios
"Back in December we spent a day at http://oclstudios.com playing a very intimate show. This was the first time we had ever done something like this. It was a chance for the audience to experience what it is like to be in a studio during the recording process. We packed 50 people into the room with us and gave everyone a set of headphones. We recorded 5 songs "live off the floor" and it turned out better that we could have imagined… There was something special about having all that energy in one little room. Some good friends came in and film the whole thing and we are excited to now be able to share that session with all of you." -Reuben Bullock Audio Recorded by: OCL Studios Engineered by: Josh Rob Gwilliam Graham Lessard James Bundy Brennan Kennedy Executive Producer: Dan Owen Video Produced by: Deluxe Design Group Video Directed by: Brock Mitchell

"The Rest of My Life" - Calgary Arts Academy High School #cbcmusicclass
For this year’s Canadian Music Class Challenge, CAA High School students had the opportunity to spend a day at OCL Studios learning about live-off-the-floor recording and audio production as part of their Music & Technology curriculum module. We managed to record a couple of tunes while we were there, but this performance of Sloan’s “The Rest of My Life” captured the fun and energy of our day in-studio the most. Special thanks to Josie and Josh for helping us look and sound our best! Calgary Arts Academy is an innovative public charter school that engages children through Arts immersion to become confident learners and spirited citizens. We acknowledge that our schools are located on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
