The line 'If I lose you, I lose it all' really struck a chord with me. That feeling of vulnerability and the fear of being alone is so powerful in this song. Your vocals carry that raw emotion perfectly, and the gentle melody makes it even more impactful. This one definitely hits the heartstrings.

London Heart (Featuring Stephanie Fraser)

Dear friends, this little song is dedicated the United Nations - the hope for our future! 
A strong United Nations can save the world. We don't want this organization to be toothless! As far as I have heard, there are some big problems: Big powerful, not always benevolent states can veto certain decisions. Decisions must also be made by consensus, which means that a few malicious states can stop important decisions.

Lyrics in English:
The United Nations

It began the Year forty five after
horrible six years of war
It was now United Nations was born
They said never ever more
will we experience such nasty days
several countries did agree
to say no to any war - on this globe
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed

The objectives were to keep inter-
national peace for all of us
and protecting human rights and to secure
international laws for all
and to deliver aid for those in need
but please, look at the world today
there are fights in several places around
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed

But how is the situation these days when
fires explode 
in many regions everywhere in north and south
It seems that several states ignore
what the secretary-general has said
even if the message was clear
he is a kind, and very honorable man
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed

Lyrics in Swedish:

Kära vänner, denna lilla sång är tillägnad FN - hoppet om vår framtid!
Ett starkt FN kan rädda världen. Vi vill inte att den här organisationen ska vara tandlös! Så vitt jag har hört finns det några stora problem: Stora mäktiga, inte alltid välvilliga stater kan lägga in sitt veto mot vissa beslut. Beslut sägs också fattas i konsensus, vilket innebär att ett fåtal illvilliga stater kan stoppa viktiga beslut.





Förenta Nationerna

Det började året fyrtiofem efter
fruktansvärda sex år av krig
Det var nu FN föddes
De sa aldrig mer
kommer vi att uppleva sådana otäcka dagar
flera länder var överens
att säga nej till vilket krig som helst - på denna jordklot
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas

Målen var att hålla inter-
nationell fred för oss alla
och att skydda mänskliga rättigheter och att säkra
internationella lagar för alla
och att ge hjälp till de behövande
men snälla, titta på världen idag
det är slagsmål på flera ställen runt omkring
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas

Men hur är läget nuförtiden när
bränder exploderar
i många regioner överallt i norr och söder
Det verkar som att flera stater ignorerar
vad generalsekreteraren har sagt
även om budskapet var tydligt
han är en snäll och mycket hederlig man
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas

Lyrics:

I've already felt you, but now I feel you in the night
I've already felt you, but now I feel you in the morning light
You’ve already touched me, but now you break me wall by wall
You’ve already touched me, but now you see me when I fall
Keep me home 

I don’t know if you will call
If I loose you, I loose it all
It's hard to see, but we are worse off alone

You've already felt me, but now you feel me in a fight  
You've already felt me, but now you feel me on a cloudy night 
I've already touched you, but now I break you in the cold
I've already touched you, but now I see you when my words are told 
Keep me home 

I don’t know if you will call
If I loose you, I loose it all
It's hard to see, but we are worse off alone

Wouldn’t you agree that we are better than before?
Wouldn’t you agree that we are feeling a bit sore?
I am not good with words but please take me home
Don’t leave me here alone
Keep me don't go 

I don’t know if you will call
If I loose you, I loose it all
It's hard to see, but we are worse off alone

Now & Then

I See You

Lyrics:

I am stranded on a beach that I've always known.
I have fallen in love with this curse though I know it's not home.

So I call out for rescue, and I work down to bone,
just searching for something -- no, anything -- to get me back home.

I am doubtful of a sail that could capture the wind.
But I am speechless! The boat is open to let a doubter step in.

Now the sail is my rescue, and I rest down below.
Wind so strong it could kill me, but it carries me home.

I am buried on the beach where I first began.
I live by the water that soon will wash over the sand.

The sail is my rescue, and I rest down below.
Wind so strong it could kill me, but it carries me home.

BIOGRAPHY, by NME’s Andrew Trendell
“I lived in my van for two and a half years to pay for the making of my first record,” casually laughs singer-songwriter Michael Baker. “I moved into the van after a typical period of heartache. I had nowhere to go, but it was pretty good actually!” 

From this, you can gather a lot about the Anglo-French troubadour. Mainly, he takes nothing for granted and lives for his music.  

Spending his childhood near Brighton (where he went to the same school as Rag N’ Bone Man), Michael got his first guitar aged eight after seeing Oasis live and needing to learn ‘Wonderwall’. In his teens, the songs soon started to flow. It wasn’t long before the purity of his voice, the direct rawness of his writing and the sheer scope of his sound found him regular gigs and a devoted fanbase – one that only grew bigger and more in love with the release of his magnificent debut album Dust & Bone. 

A soaring collection of heart-wrenching indie-folk and cinematic sounds, Dust & Bone was recorded with Massive Attack collaborator Dan Brown, and was a staggering first showcase of Baker’s ambition and soulful style. “I’m really proud of the songwriting on that record,” he admits. “I was in such a bad place in my life when I made it, but it got such a great response from the people who heard it.”

Early sessions for Salt started when Baker hit the studio with Dan Brown and Oliver Baldwin, who had recently finished making Aldous Harding’s acclaimed album Party with PJ Harvey collaborator John Parish. While promising Michael says ‘’It felt like I needed more time to experiment than we had scheduled in.” So Baker headed back to record and produce the album with long-time friend Ed Martin. 

After discovering that his childhood home would be empty for a few weeks while his parents were in the process of moving away. He went in and stripped everything away, begged and borrowed all the equipment he needed, crammed the band in, drank a lot of wine, got a little stoned and naturally just flowed through the album – playing all day and all night. The recordings were so impressive, that Baldwin agreed to mix the record at Real World Studios and gave the songs a whole new dimension (as well as inviting Jack White’s pedal steel player Maggie Björklund to play on the album too). 
“I absolutely love artists like Cat Stevens and Bon Iver,” says Baker. Salt is a record that maps Baker’s journey through darkness and vulnerability to something a lot more hopeful. 
Among the key tracks that show Baker’s road to recovery, ‘Baby Books’ was inspired by being in close proximity to someone taking their own life – and totally changing the way he saw the world. Single ‘They Look Just Like They Know’ also deals with how “the mind can be a deadly place” and “feeling trapped in the prison of your own vision”. He’s looking for the sunrise on the horizon, too. Baker’s personal favourite ‘Claire’ celebrates the “the beauty of space in a relationship” and the escapist ecstasy of ‘One Good Damn’ has won over scores of new fans with its feel-good magnetism. 

Salt is a towering accomplishment that will win hearts with its adept handling of love, loss and hope, and there’s more to come. For now though, you’re about to get to know the real Michael Baker. “I feel like I have too much of a personal relationship with anyone who says they like my music,” concludes Baker. “I’ve been getting letters and messages from people saying that my songs have got them through a very hard time, and I don’t know how to reply to them other than as if I’d known them my whole life. That’s the way that I would do it. I hope that my music gives them as much as it’s given me.”

Lyrics: 

We Have To Discover

Like a cabin in the middle of nowhere
In the void you’re my bottle of air
You’ve been the one and only
That took care
Saw the pain we share

You gave me your hand and you led me
To a whole world, you were the key
After years spent in prison
My heart beats
And my chest feels free

You taught me that I’ve been right
When my shadow in the mirror said that I was wrong
And even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong

I can let it go, let it pass by
No more wonderin’ why
Oh we have to discover
The storm’s eye
To find the wide blue sky

You taught me that I’ve been right
When my shadow in the mirror said that I was wrong
And even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong

You taught me that I’ve been right
When my shadow in the mirror said that I was wrong
And even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong

Even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong
