Not sure you will see this Yannika, but I love this track! I was lucky enough to meet your sister in Tokyo in 2018, so I can understand where this lyric is coming from! All the best, and would be great to hear some of your more recent work, best wishes, AC

Classic folk meets Celtic wonder meets heartfelt passion.  Beautifully done.

Fire Draw Near Episode XXXIV

For Angelina at the other end of the world in another world.

Recorded in 2016 in Temple Bar with Hajime and Marieclaire.

Oceans of Insanity (2016)

Given the current environmental crisis, crazy despotic leaders, war-mongers, global inequality, now would seem the ideal time to release a protest song, a peace song, a lets-change-the world song...so in keeping with the trend of modern pop music, I decided to release a frivolous party tune with no message whatsoever.
"Senorita Let Me Go" is not about Brexit or the environment, or someone downtrodden, battling against the forces of inequality & oppression...
"Don't you think the lyrics are a bit crap," I asked my brother? "I mean, it doesn't really have any meaning..."
He said, "No Liam, its about a drunk married man getting seduced on the dancefloor by a Spanish-speaking lady"
I wrote the song nearly ten years ago in North Wales, and I used to sing it with my band Timestealers back in Nottingham.

Señorita Let Me Go!

Señorita Let Me Go! (Single Version)

Himnos y Canciones de Lucha

Sacco-Vanzetti

Schau nicht zurück 

Sie kamen dieses Weges, durch wesenlose Wälder, 
über Brücken über Leeres. Und jener große Teich, 
so grau, so blind, der über seinem fernen Grunde hing, 
wie ein Regenhimmel

Und zwei, die furchtbar leise gehen,
nicht zu hören, nicht zu sehen
still und schweigend hinter ihm

Schau nicht zurück
Hinter dir Dunkelheit und Nichts
und vor dir fließt ein Weg ins Licht 
Zweifel gegen Zuversicht

Voran der schlanke Mann, im blauen Mantel,
stumm und voller Ungeduld, seine Worte verhallten. 
Kämen Sie doch, die beiden Leisen, 
ach dürfte er noch sie einmal nur sehen 

Die zwei, die furchtbar leise gehen,
nicht zu hören, hinter ihm
Er darf sich nicht nach Ihr umdrehen

Schau nicht zurück
Hinter dir Dunkelheit und Nichts
und vor dir fließt ein Weg ins Licht 
Zweifel gegen Zuversicht

Sie aber ging, an Amors Seite,
des Weges dachte sie nicht und auch nicht des Mannes. 
Wie eine Frucht, von Süße und Dunkel, 
war sie voll von ihrem Tod, der also neu war 

Sie kann nur furchtbar leise gehen,
den Weg ins Leben nicht versteh‘n,
Hingegeben wie gefall‘ner Regen

Schau nicht zurück
Ein einziger zweifelnder Blick
Nun muss sie wieder zurück
Zurück ins Dunkel und ins Nichts
