about

After a prolific 15 years of releases & touring the world, lisa li-lund is finally back with a new album - 'Glass Of Blood' - slated for worldwide release early 2021 on Pan European Recording/Splinter.

A first track, 'This Side Of The Moon', recorded at the end of the album sessions (though not featured on the LP) gives a first glimpse into Lisa's new project.

Lisa: “This Side Of The Moon is a song I wrote for my son, Jacob Balboa. A lullaby that I sing to him at night. It is also the first song I wrote after my producer, Guillaume Léglise, and I, were done mixing my LP « Glass Of Blood ». I was at this point in time where you ask yourself, am I ever going to write a song again, or have I poured it all in this last album? The first song I write after finishing a record always makes me happy and excited, like waking up from a dream where you lost your voice and being able to shout again. I’m always scared there will be no next song..

The cover is a collaborative work between the great French Photographer Marthe Sobczak and I, we used and melted a picture she took with one of mine.”

Après 15 ans de tournée et de multiples sorties, lisa li-lund revient avec un nouvel album à paraitre début 2021 chez Pan European Recording/Splinter.

Une première chanson « This Side Of The Moon » enregistrée juste après avoir terminé l'album (mais pas sur l’album) donne un premier aperçu du nouveau projet de Lisa.

Lisa: “This Side Of The Moon est une chanson que j’ai écrite pour mon fils, Jacob Balboa. Une berceuse que je lui chante pour l’endormir. C’est aussi la première chanson que j’ai écrite après que mon producteur Guillaume Léglise et moi ayons fini de mixer le disque « Glass Of Blood ». J’étais à cette étape où tu te demandes: écrirai-je à nouveau, ai-je épuisé tous mes mots dans le dernier album ? Je suis toujours rassurée et agréablement surprise lorsque j’écris mon premier morceau après l’enregistrement d’un album. Comme lorsque je me réveille d’un rêve où j’ai perdu ma voix et que je peux enfin crier à pleine gorge. J’ai toujours peur que chaque composition soit ma dernière.

La pochette est une collaboration entre la géniale photographe Française Marthe Sobczak et moi, c’est la fusion d’une photo qu’elle a prise avec l’une des miennes."

lyrics

I decided that I wasn't gonna show you
This side of the Moon
The one that sees the wolf angry
And my tears drop
I wasn't gonna stop

You'll ask why it is
Would you have been happy there?
Why wouldn't I share
This piece of our lives that we shared?


It's OK you can blame
You'll never be as sorry as I am
It's OK you can blame

I decided that I wasn't gonna show you
This side of the Moon
The one that keeps you waiting, hoping, till your heart drops
He wasn't gonna stop

You'll ask why it is
Would you have been happy there?
Why wouldn't I share
This piece of your life that we shared?

It's OK you can blame
You'll never be as sorry as I am
It's OK you can blame
