The greyness of emotion that comes with necessary change and moving out of a bad situation. This is what comes through in the moving, yet disturbing, engrossing, yet unsettling video to Ajay Mathur’s haunting ‘Nothing Really Matters’, which was released with his latest album ‘9 to 3’. <br /> <br />This is not your ordinary music video. This is a compelling work of art that combines a series of images that could work well on their own, but together they create ‘a near-menacing atmosphere’, become visceral and indelible. They form the backdrop to a song that ‘sizzles with power and passion’ and has been described as ‘deep, genuine and extremely powerful’, as ‘emotionally and instrumentally intense’. This song and its video take the listener to a raw and personal place. <br /> <br /> <br />Nothing Really Matters (music&words by Ajay Mathur) <br /> <br />I know that something happened to me, a different time in history <br />I come, you go, I say hello, you pass me by, you don't reply <br />Of all the changes you became, sometimes I feel that even I am not the same. <br /> <br />You filled the cup, I paid the bills, my love for you was never still <br />So long my love you had to leave, the end of all our make-believe <br />Of all the changes I've been through, the changes took and ran away with you <br /> <br />Nothing really matters somehow; <br />nothing really matters without your love... <br />Somehow, nothing really matters without <br /> <br />So listen now carefully, I was here and we were family <br />so long ago I can't believe, just what we gave, what we received <br />Of all the stones that we once threw, the ones that bounced across the tides were few <br /> <br />Nothing really matters somehow; <br />nothing really matters without your love... <br />Somehow, nothing really matters without <br />yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah <br /> <br />Listen now carefully! <br />Nothing really matters somehow; <br />nothing really matters without your love... <br />Somehow, nothing really matters without <br />nothing really matters…yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah <br /> <br />Of all the stones that we once threw, the bounce was high, the tide was new. But all we did was make believe, just what we gave, what we received. The time for fun, now we just run in self defence, hiding from the sun <br /> <br />I know that something happened to me, <br />at a point in time of our history <br /> <br />------- Credits --------------------------- <br />Composed, arranged and produced by Ajay Mathur <br />Christian Winiker - Lead and space guitars <br />Fausto Medici - Drums <br />Richard Hugener - Bass <br />Rupak Pandit - Indian Tablas <br />Ajay Mathur - Vocals and guitars riffs <br />Video composed by Raffaella Bachmann
