Nick Soma - No Memory

I'm doing fine, I have no memory
Of anything I've ever done
Oh yeah, they cured me of my memory
No one knows what I'll become
Now I can be anyone

For so many years, I lived
In sorrow and fear, I was
Constantly haunted by my memories
But I was sold when by
That guy I was told they could
Rearrange my mind and set it free

At least the paper says that's how it went
I can't remember anything
But by no means to my discontent
A newborn mind will now take wing

Now finally I have no memory
Of anything I've ever done
I feel so free, I have no memory
No one knows what I'll become
Now I can be anyone

Everything's fun to me
Confidence comes easy
When there's no past to cloud the sunny view
Now I can do what I
Always wanted to do, though as
To what that was, I haven't got a clue

The paper says I'll have to wait and see
What this life has got in store
No bias to obscure my destiny
No slave to memory anymore

Now finally I have no memory
Of anything I've ever done
Oh yeah, they cured me of my memory
No one knows what I'll become
Now I can be anyone

How glad I am to live like this
They say that ignorance is bliss
Entirely oblivious
I have no personality to speak of
And that's because
Of the geniuses who

Erased my each and every memory
Of everything I've ever done
Now finally I have no memory
No one knows what I'll become
Now I can be anyone

No memory, no memory
No memory, no memory...

fuzz guitars and chiptunes sound great together! I don't love the mix but I really like the song - really good hooks. My only real complaint is that there's a weird splashy bleepy sound in the left speaker in the later choruses that doesn't seem to fit rhythmically at all, it's just a bit distracting. I guess I also feel like maybe this could do with one less verse / chorus repeat, but that’s probably just listening-to-these-songs-a-lot fatigue - it's still up there with my favourites.

This song starts to suck me in at times, but spits me out over & over. Every time I get to a line where you pause before the last 2 syllables you lose me. All the flow is lost, and it’s just so odd sounding at times. The song has it’s moments. The music is catchy enough at times & you check all the challenge boxes. The story isn’t bad either. But with an insanely good crop of songs thus far....you’re on the verge of being in my bottom 4.
