Hi, we are Unknown Artists! We’re a group that has overcome international borders to share our love of music with one another.
While translating “dOra maar,” we wanted to stay as close to the original lyrics as possible. We tried to show Picasso‘s and Dora Maar‘s relationship and feelings toward each other while also showing Picasso’s love of painting. We also gave a lot of thought to the choreography, and we wanted our lyrics to reflect the members’ movements in both sensuality and power. It was really great to get to know OnlyOneOf more as a group and to try to make the lyrics fit to the different voices.
Thank you for this opportunity, and we hope you like our interpretation!
Lyrics:
You are my fifth subject
All I really see are the tears you shed
I just wanna get closer, trace your shape
You want me to love you but there’s no way, girl
Our colors clashing and the tones, so hideous
But you wanna make us work, "dOra maar“
Taste so sweet, just my name on your lips pulls me in
Again, yeah
Want to paint you like this daily
Show me your true colors baby
Oh oh oh, you just stay there where you are baby
Oh oh oh, gonna turn us into art baby
But don’t get it twisted, honey
You’re just my grieving model, “dOra maar”
Oh, shake and tremble when I call your name
Follow me you’ll never be the same
Yeah
Oh my dora, I’m drawn towards ya
Everything I know, show me that I’m wrong, bebe
Want to see it all, yeah yeah yeah
Oh my dora, I’m searching for ya
You don’t need to hide, show me even more, our
Story now unfolds, yeah yeah yeah
Till the moon goes down and Marie is gone
I see the redness in your eyes remains the same, yeah
Dali's melting clock is ticking in the corner
And I hate to see you so bent out of shape, yeah
You want me to tell the truth
Baby, you’re just a weeping woman, "dOra maar“
But I get too drunk on your gaze and forget that, yeah
Want to paint you like this daily
Show me your true colors baby
Oh oh oh, you just stay there where you are baby
Oh oh oh, gonna turn us into art baby
But don’t get it twisted, honey
You’re just my grieving model, “dOra maar”
Oh, shake and tremble when I call your name
Follow me you’ll never be the same
Yeah
Oh my dora, I’m drawn towards ya
Everything I know, show me that I’m wrong, bebe
Want to see it all, yeah yeah yeah
Oh my dora, I’m searching for ya
You don’t need to hide, show me even more, our
Story now unfolds, yeah yeah yeah
Lonely tears reflect your inner fears, I‘m turning blurry in your eyes, oh
Draw you by day and I'll hold you by night, yeah, oh, now
Turn away, the colors we had made, they've faded into shades of gray
But let me keep you in my memory
Because you’re my masterpiece, yeah
Oh my dora, I’m drawn towards ya
Everything I know, show me that I’m wrong bebe
I want to see it all, yeah yeah yeah
Oh my dora, I’m searching for ya
You don’t need to hide, show me even more, my
Feelings now unfold, yeah yeah yeah
