Lior – This Old Love

De zanger die dit jaar de meeste indruk op me heeft gemaakt is Lior. Hij heeft een erg mooie stem, maakt zeer afwisselende muziek met bijzondere arrangementen en schrijft prachtige teksten. Lior Attar is een Australische zanger die geboren is in Israel en af en toe hoor je de oriëntaalse invloeden terug in zijn muziek. Hij heeft tot nu toe drie albums uitgebracht: Autumn Flow (2005), Corner Of An Endless Road (2008) en Tumbling Into Dawn (2010). Mijn favoriete lied is dit This Old Love, hier live gebracht tijdens een optreden in Sydney 2008.

This Old Love
Yes, yeah we’re moving on,
looking for direction.
Mmm mm, we’ve covered much ground.
Thinking back to innocence,
I can no longer connect,
I don’ t have a heart left to throw around.

Oh, and time moves on like a train,
that disappears into the night sky.
Yeah, I still get a sad feeling inside,
to see the red tail lights wave goodbye.

We’ll grow old together.
We’ll grow old together.
And this love will never.
This old love will never die.

Well money slips into your hands,
and then slips out like it was sand,
and those shoes that you could never seem to fill.
I’ve chased so much and lost my way,
maybe a face for every day,
that so casually slipped me by.

Oh, and time moves on like a train,
that disappears into the night sky.
Yeah, I still get a sad feeling inside,
to see the red tail lights wave goodbye.

We’ll grow old together.
We’ll grow old together.
And this love will never.
This old love will never die.

Morning comes,
sometimes with a smile,
sometimes with a frown.
Yeah, so I never want to worry,
if your gonna stay around.

So let’s grow old together.
Baby you and I will grow old together, yeah.
And this love will never.
This old love will never, ever, ever, ever, die.

Yes, yeah we’re moving on,
moving right along.
