Anneke Van Giersbergen - "Hurricane" (video)
deep rain no sun it’s hard
god let us end the search
we crave to bless not to curse
It’s easy to not know
as long as we’re to grow
in sadness and in pain
our grieving is not in vain
But will we reach the edge
or will we drive a wedge
my heart will choose its bliss
staring down the abyss
Spin me like a hurricane
drag me through the rain
pour me down the drain
I feel no shame
running like freight train
courageous all the way
for me to wait would be insane
Η Anneke Van Giersbergen (Anna Maria van Giersbergen το "κανονικό" όνομά της) έγινε γνωστή στο μουσικόφιλο κοινό από τους Gathering. Ήταν η τραγουδίστρια (και στιχουργός) των υπέροχων δίσκων "Mandylion" και "Nighttime Birds" στο δεύτερο μισό της δεκαετίας του ενενήντα (κι αρκετών ακόμη).
Στους Gathering ήταν μέλος από το 1994 έως το 2007. Συνολικά έχει κυκλοφορήσει - συμμετάσχει σε 22 δίσκους (είτε προσωπικά, είτε με μπάντες)! Ο 23ος είναι προ των πυλών. Φέρει τον τίτλο "The Darkest Skies Are The Brightest", κυκλοφορεί κάτω από το όνομά της κι αναμένεται στα τέλη του επόμενου μήνα...
Δελτίο τύπου: «‘The Darkest Skies Are The Brightest’ is Anneke van Giersbergen’s 23rd career album. It was created in a time of personal crisis, with just an acoustic guitar and basic recording gear, in a small house near the woods just outside of Anneke’s hometown, and it grew into something much bigger.
Lyrically, and musically, the award-winning Dutch artist lays her soul bare with the most evocative record of her career - captivating song-stories told with acoustic guitars, strings, horns, percussion, and Anneke's hypnotic vocal harmonies, combined with surprising departures into swampier, foot-stomping grooves.»
Anneke: «For the new album I wrote a lot of songs filled with messages of love and heartache, but I also went on a more propulsive journey, with darker storytelling. The percussive opening groove of ‘Hurricane’ is maintained until a slightly ominous middle section. The track closes with heavy drums and a glorious trumpet solo.»
