Hassles I've been a fan of Sofia's since "The Owls Are Not What They Seem" and have longed for some of her earlier recordings - which are here.

about

In January 2007 Sofia Talvik released the second album “Street of Dreams”. First single from the album was a duet with one of the UKs top indie icons of the last 15 years – Bernard Butler. “It’s Just Love” evokes memories of the last great “triumph over adversity” duet; “Don’t Give Up” by Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush. Sofia’s soft, delicate, almost fragile vocals soar over a powerful piano melody punctuated by soft percussion, gentle strings and the rarely heard resonance of an acoustic double bass.

about

Sofia Talvik image

Sofia Talvik Gothenburg, Sweden

Unmistakably Nordic in flavor, Sofia Talvik somehow still conforms to American interpretations of her own original music, a North Sea siren blending sparkle and melancholy, creating a special niche of folk music that has been described as neo-folk. She is a veteran performer with 6 original full length albums as well as numerous EPs, singles and tours behind her. ... more

Track Name: It's Just Love
I will stand as you fall I’ll be standing tall
standing where I used to fall for you
but tonight I’ll be wearing your shoes
wearing your life as I go outside
I’m not one that will easily hide
easily hide in my brand new shoes
I can’t lose

State your case make this race
if it’ll make you feel good
make you feel good with your selfasteem
when I wake up it’ll all be a dream all be a dream
when I close my eyes
I will see it’s still you and me you and me
so I close my eyes to all the lies

I know I know we can get through this if we really try
I know I know we can get through this if we really try
it’s just love how hard can it be

I’m within I’ll be crawling round under your skin
searching your lungs and your veins
for where you are keeping the things you don’t share
tasting the sweat on your upper lip
when you’re worn out I’ll still be a hit
still be a hit in my brand new shoes
I can’t lose
