Following Lithuanian record-breaking and globally widely streamed hit “Discoteque”, “The Roop” band releases a new song and video - “Ohmygodable”.
The song was written in the woods of Aukštaitija national park (Lithuania), in wooden cabins, where “The Roop” had their musical workshop. “I always return there to finish songs - far from civilization and city tempo”, – says “The Roop” leader Vaidotas Valiukevičius.
With their new work the band invites everyone not to stop playing, discovering, and at the same time to glance differently at life, art and yourself.
Playfulness is all throughout the “Ohmygodable” music video, directed by Saulius Baradinskas who earlier created the video for the globally acknowledged “Discoteque”.
According to S. Baradinskas, the visualisation for the new song “Ohmygodable” was inspired by a Greek myth of Pygmalion, who fell in love with a sculpture he had carved.
“I think that the myth of Pygmalion is particularly relevant today, because we live in the age of social networks, within which we create our own social network “sculptures”, wishing to be liked, accepted and significant. It is human. Probably every one of us has a bit of Pygmalion’s characteristics, – tells S. Baradinskas. – The whole music video is like a separate myth of a divine dream that occurs in the world of famous works of art. I wish that in this music video of ours the viewer discovers those art pieces and experiences our myth, like a single beautiful dream, together.”
“The name of the song is a new, rarely encounterable word, defining a person or a phenomenon if you see which you would say: “Oh My God”! In this clip the viewer wanders through world famous artworks which are interpreted in a contemporary context. I believe the music video really turned out ohmygodable”, – says V. Valiukevičius.
Everything was filmed using “one take” technique – a single camera shot, and then augmented by animation created by “Meinart Animation Studio”. And one of the main characters – the antique sculpture – was created for the music video by a prominent sculptor Donatas Jankauskas-Duonis.
On the set “The Roop” was also joined by dancers Miglė Praniauskaitė and Marijanas Staniulėnas who, after the Eurovision Song Contest, became part of the band’s live shows and true friends.

OHMYGODABLE
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
(Chik chik)
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
(Yeah)
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
(O-o-oh)
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
Let me tell you so -
You are Ohmygodable.
One thing that I know -
(O-o-oh)
Ohmygodable.
(Pow)
(Oh My God, Oh My God)
(Si)
Walking around, talking.
Browsing your pics. Stalking
What you’re about.
Dreaming that we're meeting.
On and on.
Is it really me?
I can't believe it.
I cannot feel the ground.
My body's tumbling down.
I think you really got me falling deeper.
Oh My God
Oh My God
Ohmygodable you are
Oh My God
Oh My God
Ohmygodable you are
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
(Shhhhhhhhew)
Let me tell you so -
You are Ohmygodable.
One thing that I know -
(O-o-oh)
Ohmygodable.
(Oh My God)
(Yeah)
(Uh)
Staring at you, thinking
What if you see me hardly blinking.
I don't know how to get myself together.
How to be?
Is it really me?
I can't believe.
Oh My God
Oh My God
Ohmygodable you are
Oh My God
Oh My God
Ohmygodable you are
Oh My God
Oh My God
Ohmygodable you are
Oh My God
Oh My God
Ohmygodable you are
