I adore the song and I was incredibly hyped for th music video. I love the idea of drawing something and then speeding it up! Love it!

[@JayMaverick]

Holy friggin wow, Sunshine! The song was fun by itself, but this video was brilliant. You really are some kind of genius. 😊

[@SolHeilo]

I'm not a genius, but thank you so much for your kind words!

[@MrMzLA]

We already knew you were a musical genius. It's a bit unfair that you're an artistic one as well.

[@frankperry1111]

Amazing how you put this together, Sol. I heard you awoke from a dream with this song. I love your artwork. Very nice. You are blessed with overflowing talents. Congratulations on your success. I'm aka Patrick Frank Perry a fan of yours on facebook.

[@SKOGLUND65]

Digger deg!!!

[@roybn2011]

Veldig bra, Sol! Kjempesang og kreativ og flott video. :-)

[@kelli279]

The video is amazing, you actually drew all these different scenes and then made that cool mural? How did you get the aerial shots?? Drone?

[@SolHeilo]

Thanks, man! Yeah, I used a drone for that shot.

[@robonez]

Herlig!!!!!!! \m/

[@wahnahh993]

Hello, Sol. This has really become a catchy tune. Because I do not speak so well English, I do not understand the text so completely. (I have used a translation programme for these lines) Is this rather a praise hymn on your experiences in America, or rather criticism? Best regards from Germany

[@SolHeilo]

Werner the lyrics have many layers!

[@wahnahh993]

OK. Thank you for answering. I wish you all the best with your new CD and enjoy the tour. Continue to be such a creative artist. Werner

[@stipendi2511]

I interpreted them as a message that things aren't how you think they are and we live inside of a "safety bubble". "Listen up in euphoria", euphoria meaning a false sense of pleasure created artificially (or something like that) and then saying "We're falling" (things not going so well). What is this euphoria? "We're falling" implies that the singer is in the euphoria and "Wake me up from America" implies that the singer is also in America, therefore euphoria = America. Now, what does this really mean? There are many ways to interpret this but I think it means we all think we're strong (I mean needless to say America is a pretty influential and strong country) but in reality not so much ("we're falling"). There is constant referencing to high standards. "Fuck me up just for feeling down" meaning you treat someone unfairly just because you yourself are having a bad day. "Climb on top of a falling star" We're not talking about literal America here, we're talking about being too privileged, having too high standards and living a wealthy life. Being in a state of too much luxury. "We're all in our *own* America" supports this. We all live in a first world country judging by the fact that we get to experience the internet and listen to amazing music like this one. To summarize I think the fundamental message of the song is that we're enjoying wealthy lives while at the same time there are starving people in underdeveloped countries and we should enjoy the lives we have, lower our standards, not complain about our daily "first world problems" like spilling a coffee or something. We should be ready to accept the fact that we'll go downhill sometimes and that's okay, especially when there are people out there doing much worse. We should treat our wealthy lives with respect because not everyone has it like this. I think another thing the songwriter was going for was "don't get too greedy". If you're too confident you'll succeed (euphoria) it'll hurt worse if you fail ("listen up in euphoria, we're going down") and "we all live in our own America" could mean that we all think of ourselves differently than others think about us. We have high egos and think we're better than we really are. The flashing filters could symbolize the made-up world that we're creating. The world of over-confidence. I think it's a beautiful song. Keep in mind that this is just my interpretation of it and probably isn't what the songwriter was going for. I just felt like sharing my perspective. Thanks for reading. :) (English isn't my first language either, by the way)

[@wahnahh993]

Thank you for the effort and your assessment

[@youraverageslimemonster6093]

THANK YOU FOR THIS AMAZING THING

[@SolHeilo]

Thanks, haha, LOVE your name!

[@youraverageslimemonster6093]

AWH thank you so much! (and thanks for this awesome song) can't wait to hear the rest of the album!

[@premeshpradhan5743]

It was some months ago, there was unrest in my home Darjeeling, internet had been shut down for months, i was flipping through news channels to keep abreast and i stumbled upon Katzenjammer on DW News Baloise Session. At first i thought they were new spice girls or something but soon my ears told another tale. These were serious musicians. All of them played multiple instruments and could sing and make it look as easy as breathing. The music was like nothing i heard before; folksy, bluesy, Beatlesque, rock n roll, opera, psychedelic, a kaleidoscope of styles, a truly unique blend. All the songs were great especially Bad Girl, Lady Grey, Hey Oh but my favorite was "Shine Like Neon Rays." By the time Sol finished singing it my eyes were brimming over, I was overwhelmed. I was blown by their music, energy and presence. Alone at home i felt like i had just been at a great concert like Woodstock or Deep Purple's Last Concert in Tokyo etc.. To me Katzenjammer are the female equivalent of the Beatles and Sol is its Lennon, its sad you had to leave... Hoping to hear more great music from you Sol, until then i'll keep seeing you "Shine Like Neon Rays : )

[@flightvision]

Good vibes, and the video blows my mind. How did the paintings all match in the end??!

[@SolHeilo]

flightvision i had it well planned:)

[@caroliz9225]

@@SolHeilo you're a GENIUS

[@LeivHelleb]

Kjempebra!!!

[@frankperry1111]

Sol, another commenter (Nick Danger) was concerned about your safety. How fast was the car actually driving while you were riding on the hood? If the car was actually traveling very fast, old Nick raises a good point. Did you use Velcro for that stunt?

[@SolHeilo]

frank perry Hi! I sped down the vocal track to 42 bpm, drove 10 km per hour and mimed to the extremely slow voice, sped up the film 470 percent and made it lip sync! No danger involved

[@wahnahh993]

Hello Sol. Look at this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opel_Ascona#Ascona_B_.281975.E2.80.931981.29 This car was built between 1975-1981. 1981 was an apparently a good year. btw. It was the third car in my live in 1985. Unfortunately it was not so nice green but blue. Best regards

[@bharrington123]

Katznejammer is my favorite band of all time.

[@SteveDEvD]

What an amazing video and song. I'm sure you have to be a very successful artist in Scandinavia. It's a shame that your work still seems to be unregarded. The views definitely don't reflect the quality of your music. 🙂

[@loschotatamos]

Sol! Bring back Demon Kitty Rag ukulele tuttorial. Please!

[@SolHeilo]

I will! Soon!

[@guitarplayer7400]

And maybe some more lessons for other songs?
