Anneke Van Giersbergen - "I Saw A Car" (video)
and I knew this car was gonna get me far
flaming red runs like a jet
and I don’t get why it isn’t mine yet
oh this car is gonna bring me home
I rely on my fear alone
get by on my pain
I deny that I’m to blame
for you to be down so low
I saw a man a really nice man
and to reel him in I do whatever I can
a smile so bold not exactly old
and I don’t really get why he isn’t mine yet
oh this man is gonna take me home
he’s gonna save me
I saw a bird a beautiful bird
if I could steal its wings I would get what I deserve
I’ll stand my ground high up in the clouds
and escape my responsibilities
I am 100% imperfect
I am 100% alone
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 23 δίσκους (είτε προσωπικά, είτε με μπάντες)! Ο 23ος και μπλέον πρόσφατος φέρει τον τίτλο "The Darkest Skies Are The Brightest", κυκλοφορεί κάτω από το όνομά της και "βγήκε" προ ημερών...
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: «The stomps and plucky brightness might fool you into thinking this is a ditty, but the vulnerable and self-assessing lyrics actually fit the headspace being expressed throughout the album.This song was written and produced very late in the recording process, but I just instantly knew the track had something special and needed to be included on the album.»
