Random Coincidences

Does anyone else keeping tabs on the BIONICLE storyline and anticipating the movie find themselves spotting random BIONICLE pseudo-references everywhere?

 

I listened to the album "Tres Lunas" by Mike Oldfield today during my little brother's baseball game, and stuff jumped out at me.

 

Track listing:

  1. Misty**
  2. No Man's Land
  3. Return to the Origin
  4. Landfall
  5. Viper*
  6. Turtle Island**
  7. To Be Free
  8. Firefly*
  9. Tres Lunas
  10. Daydream
  11. Thou Art in Heaven*
  12. Sirius**
*It's kinda a stretch to connect these at all with 2009 story, but it can be done...

**Any ties these have with 2009 story are totally bogus. But the fact that this music has an overall BIONICLE vibe helps considerably.

 

"To Be Free", the only one with what we'd call "lyrics" (some others have vocals, but no more than the Power Pack stuff had), ties in superbly with the 2009 story-- namely, with Kiina's character and perspective. I'd totally write a songfic if I were still into that. As it is, instead you get this cool lyrics entry.

 

To Be Free

You find yourself alone, sometimes

Without a home, no protection

You don't know which way to go

You're lost, no direction

 

Suddenly, out of the blue

Some kind of magic comes to you

You don't know how, you don't know why

But someday, gonna take off, and fly...

 

(Wish, make a wish)

 

My wish would be...

 

To be free

To be wild

And to be

Just like a child

And if I get lost

I really don't mind

Cos I'm me

Doing just fine

 

You're out in the cold, sometimes

As far as you can see, misty

And you want to run, into the sun

The road is lost, sand shifty

 

Suddenly, out of the blue

Some kind of magic pushes you through

You don't know when, how or why

But someday, gonna take off and fly

 

And if I had a wish, my wish would be...

 

To be free

To be wild

And to be

Just like a child

And if I get lost

I really don't mind

Cos I'm me

Doing just fine

 

(chorus x3)

 

Just like a child

I really don't mind

Cos I'm free

Doing just fine

'

 

Anyhow, great album; great artist. Listen to some stuff if you get a chance; hopefully you'll enjoy it as much as I do.
