lyrics
It was a summer day in June
And I remember everything
I was walking through the mountains
somewhere in between

And everything was everywhere
where it should be
Should be

It’s a summer cloudy day
and I wanna stay in bed
It’s not that I won’t be okay
but it’s eveywhere the same
I wanna be somewhere else
somewhere where the sun shines
somewhere where the sun shines every day
every day

It was a hot day in July
The sun was shining a blue, blue sky
I was swimming in the sea
and walked through foreign places

And everything was everywhere
where it should be
Should be

It’s a summer cloudy day
and I wanna stay in bed
It’s not that I won’t be okay
but it’s eveywhere the same
I wanna be somewhere else
somewhere where the sun shines
somewhere where the sun shines every day
every day

It was an August eve at nine
I heard crickets, birds and smelled some thyme
There was no one else but you
a fresh breeze, a postcard view

And everything was everywhere
where it should be
Should be

It’s a summer cloudy day
and I wanna stay in bed
It’s not that I won’t be okay
but it’s eveywhere the same
I wanna be somewhere else
somewhere where the sun shines
somewhere where the sun shines every day
every day

Summer Cloudy Day

Love My Baby

ll est des évidences
des choses qui vont de soi
dire ce que l’on pense
ce qu’on sent, ce qu’on croit.

Mais moi toute ma vie
Je gardais tout pour moi
Comme un loir endormi 
engourdi par le froid..

Etait-ce par pudeur
Par peur de m’exposer
D’ouvrir un peu mon coeur
Ou simplement d’oser.

Montrer peur ou colère
Inquiétude ou tendresse.
N’était  pour toi mon père
Que choquante faiblesse

Sois un homme mon gars !
Cogne fort et encaisse.
 
Surtout ne pleure pas !
C’est bon pour les gonzesses

Rester copie conforme
A ce  modèle viril
Ne pas braver la norme.
Voilà. !Ainsi-soit -il !

REFRAIN    

Mais est venu le jour
De remise en question
Toi touché à ton tour
Par ton opération


Pour toi bien difficile
La maladie soudain
Te révélait fragile
Ou simplement humain

Aux portes de la mort
Tu m’as dit ton amour
En moi, il vit encore
Et il vivra toujours.
Tu m’as dit ton amour
Mieux vaut tard que jamais
Je t’ai dit à mon tour
A quel point je t’aimais...

 Better late than never

Some things are obvious
things that go without saying
to say what you think
what you feel, what you believe.
But all my life
I kept everything to myself
Like a sleeping dormouse 
numbed by the cold.

Was it out of modesty
For fear of exposing myself
To open my heart a little
Or simply to dare.
To show fear or anger
Worry or tenderness.
For you, my father
Only shocking weakness

Be a man, boy!
Hit hard and take it.
Above all, don't cry!
It's good for the chicks

Stay a carbon copy
To this virile model
Don't defy the norm.
So be it!

REFRAIN    

But the day has come
Of questioning
You in turn
By your operation
For you very difficult
Sudden illness
Revealed you to be fragile
Or simply human
At death's door
You told me of your love
In me it still lives
And always will.
You told me of your love
Better late than never
I told you in turn
How much I loved you...

The One That You Choose 2024

Feeling lost;
Hopeless;
And running in circles.
Such is the custom of life.
But;
One day we will reach.
To what we deserve.

Background
Simeon of Durham recorded the grim events of the Viking attack on Lindisfarne in 793 AD

"And they came to the church of Lindisfarne, laid everything waste with grievous plundering, trampled the holy places with polluted feet, dug up the altars and seized all the treasures of the holy church. They killed some of the brothers; some they took away with them in fetters; many they drove out, naked and loaded with insults; and some they drowned in the sea" .
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
'The Vikings' was in direct contrast to the dreamy first piece of the album. I came across a Latin Phrase spoken by priests as a prayer of protection from the scourge of Viking raids. It helped me get into the mindset required for this piece. I chanced upon some 'Foley' material of some actual Viking re-enactors from freesound and used this to create a very short, brooding piece that explodes into an electric guitar solo before just being suddenly left with a voiceover of me chanting the Latin phrase against the backdrop of the sound of the sea.

Often Viking raids were short and bloody and I wanted to try and capture how an attack like this could change everything for the vulnerable monks. Faith was their shield but could it really protect them from these savages from the sea ?

Palette Of Voices

I am a singer-songwriter who mainly focuses on vocals and piano. I was influenced by artists like Tori Amos and Agnes Obel  and  I  grew up in a musical family between folk and cabaret.  I write both English and Dutch songs, sometimes quite literal, sometimes hard to understand, sometimes wordless, but always poetic!
I also give singing and piano lessons and lead choirs.
Let me know what you think of my music, enjoy!
