Here a song which has been very populair in my country lately. It’s from the 18-year-old English singer-songwriter Jake Bugg. A few weeks ago he played at the Into The Great Wide Open Festival and because of my busy schedule at the festival I didn’t see his performance. I really like this song because it’s got this old school sound. His voice sounds like an old guy, but he’s still a teenager. Enjoy the song and the video which has been made in our Capital Amsterdam on Queensday, that’s why you see so much orange and flags.

Lyrics:
Morning, it’s another pure grey morning
Don’t know what the day is holding
When I get uptight
And I walk right into the path of a lightning bolt
Sirens of an ambulance comes howling
Right through the centre of town and
No one blinks an eye
And I look up to the sky in the path of a lighting bolt
Met her as the angels parted for her
But she only brought me touture
But that’s what happens
When it’s you who’s standing in the path of a ligthning bolt
Everyone I see just wants to walk with gritted teeth
But I just stand by and I wait my time
They say you gotta tow the line they want the water not the wine
But when I see the signs I jump on that lightning bolt
Chances, people tell you not to take chances
When they tell you there aren’t any answers
And I was starting to agree
But I awoke suddenly in the path of a lightning bolt
Fortune, people talking all about fortune
Do you make it or does it just call you.
In the blinking of an eye
Just another passerby in the path of a lightning bolt
Everyone I see just wants to walk with gritted teeth
But I just stand by and I wait my time
They say you gotta tow the line they want the water not the wine
But when I see the signs I jump on that lightning bolt
It was silent, I was lying back gazing skyward
When the moment got shattered
I remembered what she said
And then she fled in the path of a lightning bolt
