Remy van Kesteren: Tomorrow Eyes
2:44+
"Tomorrow Eyes" is the title song on Remy van Kesteren's 2016 album. This classically trained Dutch harpist uses harp throughout the album, but this haunting ballad about finality in life uses the harp as it's main instrument, alongside haunting vocals that really leave an impact on the listener.
Lyrics: When light will turn away, When leaving colors gray When leafs are dead and gone, When night sets in to stay I feel the urge to fall, Into the morning's call Set camp behind my wall, Hide from the monsters' ball When fear abides, I stop, And see That all the stars have eyes, I lift mine to the skies Make end to flaw of thought, That hope cannot be brought When we are lost in night, We do not lose our light When distant suns do break, Their light's just awake This is me, ceasing all my fights, Trusting in tomorrow's eyes

"BLISSING ME" by Björk
2:10+
| LYRICS
Yo, Baby K Vestiti in fretta perché ho voglia di far festa Sai non importa il trucco, la bellezza è in testa Abbiamo visto il cielo piangerci addosso Perciò balliamo ora che il sole è il nostro Voglio una musica che mi ricorda l'Africa All'improvviso tutto il mondo cambia pagina Innamorarsi con la luna nel mare Partire e tornare Senza sapere quando Andata senza ritorno Ti seguirei fino in capo al mondo All'ultimo secondo Volerei da te, da Milano Fino a Hong Kong Passando per Londra, da Roma e fino a Bangkok Cercando te Stacca dal tuo lavoro almeno per un po' La vita costa meno trasferiamoci a Bangkok Dove la metropoli incontra i tropici E tra le luci diventiamo quasi microscopici Abbassa i finestrini voglio il vento in faccia Alza il volume della traccia Torneremo a casa solo quando il sole sorge Questa vita ti sconvolge Senza sapere quando Andata senza ritorno Ti seguirei fino in capo al mondo All'ultimo secondo Volerei da te, da Milano Fino a Hong Kong Passando per Londra, da Roma e fino a Bangkok Cercando te Anche i muri di questa città mi parlano di te Le parole restano a metà e più aumenta la distanza tra me e te Giuro questa volta ti vengo a prendere Senza sapere quando Volerei da te, da Milano Fino a Hong Kong Passando per Londra, da Roma e fino a Bangkok Cercando te

"CAUSING TROUBLE" by Saint Sister S7E03: Queen of Harps
TBA
Ethereal is, funnily enough, a word often used lightly to describe bands that flirt with a dreamy style, but few musicians fit the term quite like Irish duo, Saint Sister. With their increasingly strong catalogue of tracks, Morgan MacIntyre and Gemma Doherty combine haunting vocals, electronic beats and celestial murmurs of harp, fusing traditional Celtic music with vintage sixties folk and the occasional trip of a hip-hop rhythm.
On latest single, ‘Causing Trouble’, Saint Sister depict various kinds of crossroads and transitions: points in life where relationships, feelings and memories overlap or pass each other by, those chance exchanges between past and present framed by the light of the future. It’s a song inflected by shadows as much as the sweet allure of nostalgia; slick clicking beats are overlaid with tender arpeggios, soft production and soaring vocals which feel like waves breaking on faraway shores.

Came by to tell me how you've changed You got a new girl, she keeps you sane And you don't think of me like that I hold the moment in the gap But honey I know you We dance to Elvis in the kitchen At least we used to And honey you know me We danced from Belfast to the Basin When you sang, "And it stoned me" Well it stoned me You on the blue carpet We swapped bodies for a while What was I doing all of those years? Causing trouble I hear Causing trouble I hear You said, "darling it's a shame" Was I intent on staying strange? Take that car out of my garden We should have left it on the island Honey I know you Doesn't that count for something? At least I used to You on the blue carpet We swapped bodies for a while What was I doing all of those years? Causing trouble I hear Causing trouble I hear |

"THE BIRDS OF FINLAND" by Conner Youngblood S7E03: Queen of Harps
3:14+
'The Birds of Finland' is taken from Conner's debut album Cheyenne. The song has an extended introduction – about 1:30. During the intro, a wind instrument is the primary instrument, but it’s the harp that is more likely to hold the attention of the listener. Although the body of the song has other instruments as well, it's the harp that gets more exposure throughout the song.
| LYRICS
Facilitate this fall of August The autumn winds, the summer forfeits The bittern’s boom will disavow All the time we’ve wasted now
Fabricate this borderline Between the fire and the focus As the wren churr through the pine I doubt you will ever notice
And I know I’ve got my stubborn ways The shovelers soon fly away While this winter moon will disavow All the time we’ve wasted now
Formulate and fortify The spring becomes our alibi The eider’s plume will disavow All the time we’ve wasted now
And I know you’ve got your subtle ways The hooded crow is here to stay But this idle June will disavow All the time we’ve wasted now |
