Anneke Van Giersbergen - "My Promise" (video)
tranquil you and I
distorted sense of time
sense of life
What would you say
if ever I would leave
I stay you go
we’re giving up I know
you stay I go
I will run through fire
I will ride the storm
I swear I will
In the line of fire
we meet with our desire
bullets graze our hearts
at the speed of light
I will run through fire
I will ride the storm
I swear I will
I want you home
I will run through fire
I will ride the storm
I swear I will
to take you home
There is no one to show me
how heaven and earth will collide
Won’t you run with me
and defy the storm
there is no one to show me
how heaven and earth will collide
Only you comprehend
only I will defend you
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: «I wrote ‘My Promise’ when I imagined what life after divorce would really entail. The lyrics deal with a determination to fight for love. The song starts off with an acoustic Arabo-Spanish Gypsy vibe and gradually builds towards a euphoric ending. Ruud Peeters wrote a hauntingly melancholic string arrangement. We shot the video in Radio Royaal, one of my favourite restaurants in my hometown Eindhoven and it shows a few defining moments in a relationship, represented by different couples.»
