Name: Voyagers by NORTHLIGHT
Duration: 3 min 56 s
Description: This song is, an encouragement to the brave, the patient, the persistent believers who never stop defying the impossible!

@indiewaves: Awesome! Huge thanks for the support, means the world to us! :)

I was wondering for something constructive to say but I only have appreciation comments.. I hear a wise influence of coldplay for the drums during the bridge. Fading the intrumental and keep the vocals to show the harmonies is a great idea, from the producer? The only song I know as that idea is « Forget me not » by Elvenking. After reading the description I changed my mind on wich is my favorite Northlight song, this is one of the main point of good music in my opinion. (Believing) there’s also science;) nice work mates!

i cant believe how Voyager is good !!!!! First time to listen

North Swallow (EP)

Dreamer

Written by PJ Pearson
Produced by James Bragg

I came down to earth on a satellite somewhere
Near the cape of good hope
And covered in rags they were taking your picture
You had cut all your hair
And I was there in the back of the church with Diana
If god gives you landmines
You hand him back flowers

It’s Sanctuary Blues
Sanctuary Blues
These Sanctuary Blues

Everyone stood like Halloween costumes
Pretending that death was a friend of a friend
So I rode for Jerusalem
With an artichoke heart
On the back of a fire engine
Handing out lemons
If anyone asks
It’s the church of indifference

And people
People are just like stars
Moving in no direction
And I try not to read them all
And people
People are just like leaves
Left floating in the bottom of my tea
And I try not to read them all

These Sanctuary Blues

I was there on the edge drinking coconut water
And in glorious gesture you leant me your bible of Frankie O Hara
Where you’d marked out the pages with candy bar wrappers

And everything matters
It’s a matter of atoms

Maggie

Truce

My granddad’s wooden cars and twine 
but the patio cracked all those times 
and those cars rolled heavy down the bloodline 

My grandma hung it on the line 
but the clothes were dry so I resigned 
and they don't dry unless you dry my eyes 

Close your eyes / you’re not alone 
you’re not alone as long as someone’s home 
cross my heart and hope to die 
your eyes are in the yard so they can dry 

Ol black walnut and power lines are mixed in 
but I’m on the boughs of blue skies 
they yell from the ground that I might die 

Ol Sumter are you in decline? 
yet still you stand / as unmanned 
as your light curls slowly cross the coastline 
and I am found 

Close your eyes / you’re not alone 
you’re not alone as long as someone’s home 
cross my heart and hope to die 
your eyes are in the yard so they can dry 

I’m not where I’m supposed to be 
I’m not where I’m supposed to be 
I am my own colony with my best foot in front of me 

I’m not where I’m supposed to be 
I’m not where I’m supposed to be 
close your eyes in Adelaide, Adelaide, Adelaide

LYRICS:
Riding the wave down.
You knew we’d always come back to it,
On the way to the border where we all go pray.
It’s like kicking a wall down,
You’re gonna break some bones.
I can see my reflection and once again I’m alone.

Riding the wave down, I never knew I’d be so afraid -
The moment I saw ya in your red beret and your leopard print jacket, 
the one you always wore.
In my charity grey coat, the one that you adore.

Riding the wave down.
One day we’ll feel the sand.
Down memory lane will you hold my hand?
When the sun gets darker and all the lights go out -
Will you be my darling with no worries or doubts?

Riding the wave down.
You knew we’d always come back to it,
On the way to the border, where we used to pray.
No kicking walls down.
No breaking bones.
I’ll keep my temper in check, you’ll never leave me alone.

'Cold'

Broken skies on the horizon, 
give me fever, tear me up. 
There’s a calm before the thunder. 
Never sure of, what’s to come.

So hold my soul ‘til the morning. 
Love me to the bone. 
Heaven knows it’s a feeling, 
to treasure so paint it gold.

Every day the sun is rising, 
is it too good to be true? 
You’ve got me caught in a twist in my head. 
Overthinking the things that you’ve said. 
Make me dream that I drive you away all alone. 
Everything I invent in my head, 
sabotaging the time that we spent. 
And now I need to know.

Just tell me that you’ll, 
hold my soul ‘til the morning. 
Love me to the bone. 
Heaven knows it’s a feeling, 
to treasure so paint it gold. 
Say you love me. Say you feel it. 
Say you’re never turning cold. 
Cos heaven knows it’s a feeling, 
to treasure so paint it gold.

I’ve been spinning out of place, 
but it’s an illusion I know. 
Maybe it’s a test of faith, 
to leave me feeling cold.

Hold my soul ‘til the morning. 
Love me to the bone. 
Heaven knows it’s a feeling, 
to treasure so paint it gold. 
Say you love me. Say you feel it. 
Say you’re never turning cold. 
Cos heaven knows it’s a feeling, 
to treasure so paint it gold.

📝 Lyrics:

An hour in real time passes like the second on a broken clock
I stay in bed all day just to realise that this’ll be the third on the trot
I set the foundation for a life that I don’t know how to build.
And I take a step backwards and I fall down the same old hills
And I hope that you return to me, it’s mighty lonely on my own in the city.
Hope I find some better company, where they’re willing to be caring for my pity.
And I do not want to wake up to the shame, but I’m far too tired for these games.
We’ll bury this with all our memories, right beside the last love that took it all away.

Oh, as sweet as you were,
you turned out to be fools gold in the dark dirt.
And you ripped through the house whirlwind tearing everything to the cold ground.
And your words through the phone forced the skin right off of my white bones.
And I lay, surrounded by these thoughts

And our Tiny fires, I swear they’ll burn some day.
And I want them wild and in some place it never rains.
‘Cause We belong, Deep inside the blaze,
just like we did back in our early days.

I move in straight lines and I follow cats eyes beside the road
I know directions but where they take me we’ll never know,
Please fire a flare so I know that you are out there,
Safe and sound, with a beacon over your head.
I hope that you are missing me, I feel it too when alone in the country
I miss the sirens and the song repeats, late nights that I wish I could remember
I’d do anything i need to make you stay, but your mind’s made you’ll leave anyway
I sure hope your train is delayed, ‘cause theres so much more I need to say.

Oh, as sweet as you were,
you turned out to be fools gold in the dark dirt.
And you ripped through the house whirlwind tearing everything to the cold ground.
And your words through the phone forced the skin right off of my white bones.
And I lay, surrounded by these thoughts

And our Tiny fires, I swear they’ll burn some day.
And I want them wild and in some place it never rains.
‘Cause We belong, Deep inside the blaze,
just like we did back in our early days.

Oh-oh-oh’s

And our Tiny fires, I swear they’ll burn some day.
And I want them wild and in some place it never rains.
‘Cause We belong, Deep inside the blaze,
just like we did back in our early days.

Toby Johnson - Tiny Fires (with lyrics)

NORTHLIGHT is the small-town poprock band from Sweden with thousands of followers all across the globe and a great ambition to write music with heart. The band’s songs have been streamed over 1 million times.  

With their roots within the vast fir woods of Värmland in Sweden, just by the shores of the great lake Vänern, NORTHLIGHTs founding members, vocalist and frontman Victor Bergh and bass player Per Eresund, met in high school in 2012 where they after a math lesson decided to form a band. Self-taught and without any previous experience they quickly learned to master the art of song writing and were soon joined by lead guitarist Fredrik Andersson and drummer Johan Köhler. They started rehearsing in a classroom in a nearby school, as theirs didn’t have any rooms suitable for music, and with a handful of curious friends in the audience, they made their very first live performance in the spring of 2013. Influenced by giants such as Coldplay, U2 and The Killers, the bands future ambitions stood clearly defined from the beginning, and with a total of 19 studio recordings released NORTHLIGHT have already built a steady platform to build their future upon. 

In January of 2015, the first single Scars was released, which soon was followed by the four-song EP Wide Awake Dreamer, including the song One Man Land which made it in on Sweden's biggest chart for unsigned bands, P3 Osignat Top 10. Later the same year, the Swedes made their live debut abroad as they played on one of southern Europe’s biggest festivals, INmusic Zagreb, stealing audience from the British band Placebo who shared the same gig time on the neighboring stage. Back in Sweden two months later they entered the stage on Arvika Hamnfest, one of the biggest festivals in western Sweden. 

2017 was kicked off with the new single In the Night, which lead to a signing with the Stockholm-based music publishing company Musichelp. During the summer the band played on major Swedish festivals like Putte i Parken and Luleå Hamnfestival, as well as did their debut on the showcase festival Live at Heart in Örebro. The popular indie rock song The Fool was released in September and a few months later the arena rock-flavored single Everlasting Sun along with its acclaimed music video, quickly becoming a fan favorite.  

2018 would be the year when things really started to take off for the Swedish indie pop group. It began with the release of their most successful single so far, the arena-pop song Voyagers that has been praised by fans worldwide. With the announcement later the same year of the bands second EP Finding a Sun Among a Billion Stars, a fresh new sound was introduced with a more acoustic, serious and down-to-earth ring to it. The pre-EP single Fancy Cars was followed by festival gigs on Youbloom Dublin, Viva Sounds Gothenburg and Live at Heart Örebro for the second year in a row, which lead to NORTHLIGHT being awarded the title of INEStalents 2018 and 2019. In November, the anticipated EP was released with its leading song Midas quickly becoming popular, both among music blogs, magazines and the band’s ever-growing fanbase. 

The bands awaited 11th single A Celebration of Humanity was released on May 17th, along with its photo mosaic artwork created from 532 individual photos sent in by the band’s followers all across the globe. The release was followed by the single Equally Different in 2020 with which NORTHLIGHT won the regional finals of the nation-wide music competition P4 Nästa. The band was also later selected as one among eight contestants to compete in the national finals of P4 Nästa where NORTHLIGHT ended up on 5th place among 1 150 participants across the nation. Due to the band’s successful participation in P4 Nästa, Equally Different was frequently played during the summer and autumn on the both local and national radio station P4. A few months after the release of Equally Different, the band’s music also passed 1 million streams on Spotify.
