Måns Zelmerlöw - "Hanging On To Nothing"
(Live @ TV4, Sommarkrysset)


"Hanging On To Nothing"
***Lyrics***


Wrote you like a thousand times
I might have lost track
Calling you up at night

I think I fucked up
I see it's over now
That I can't hide among the scars
That we've been given
The path is now forbidden

You say that you're in love with me
But I can't be tamed, possibly
We try and we fall desperately
It's like I'm hanging on to nothing just for you, babe

Cos every time that you leave me I'm loving it
And every time that I'm set free I'm hanging on to nothing
Just for you, babe
Just for you
Just for you, babe
Just for you

Told you like a million lies
To keep you satisfied
Kisses for your appetite
To keep us far away from fighting
It's over now and I can't hide
The scars that we've been given
The path is now forbidden

You say that you're in love with me
But I can't be tamed, possibly
We try and we fall desperately
It's like I'm hanging on to nothing, just for you, babe

Cos every time that you leave me I'm loving it
And every time that I'm set free I'm hanging on to nothing
Just for you, babe
Just for you
Just for you, babe
Just for you

Cos every time that you leave me I'm loving it
And every time that I'm set free I'm hanging on to nothing
Just for you, babe
Just for you
Just for you, babe
Just for you

It's unreal how we bleed
I can't seem to break free
From these chains that were made
Made just for me
I try and I fall desperately
It's like I'm hanging on to nothing, just for you, babe

Cos every time that you leave me I'm loving it
And every time that I'm set free I'm hanging on to nothing
Just for you, babe
Just for you
Just for you, babe
Just for you

Cos every time that you leave me I'm loving it
And every time that I'm set free I'm hanging on to nothing
Just for you, babe
Just for you
Just for you, babe
Just for you

It's like I'm hanging on to nothing just for you, babe
It's like I'm hanging on to nothing just for you, babe
It's like I'm hanging on to nothing just for you, babe
It's like I'm hanging on to nothing just for you, babe

You can count on me to always hold your hand 
I’ll brush off the dust, make you shine again 
Oh, we’re on a journey to the unknown 
Have a little hope (Have a little hope) 

Come on dare to imagine all that you could be 
And discover a world of possibility 
Oh, with spirits like ours – we’ll rewrite the rules 
We’ve got a trail of sparks – Believe in miracles 

[CHORUS] 
Have a little hope (Have a little hope) 
When the world gets cold (When the world gets cold) 
Don’t ever lose your soul (Don’t lose your soul) 
Have a little hope (Have a little hope) 

Go and find your purpose let your mind run free 
All the magic is waiting, jump the boundaries 
Oh, from A to Zed you’re gonna see it all 
You’ve got live, love and dream — you’re not invisible 

[CHORUS] 
Have a little hope (Have a little hope) 
When the world gets cold (When the world gets cold) 
Don’t ever lose your soul (Don’t lose your soul) 
Have a little hope (Have a little hope) 

And like a dandelion, you can blow in the wind 
Build enough momentum to the promised land 
Come on, hit the road, accelerate with speed 
You were built for this, claim your destiny 

[CHORUS] 
Have a little hope (Have a little hope) 
When the world gets cold (When the world gets cold) 
Don’t ever lose your soul (Don’t lose your soul) 
Have a little hope (Have a little hope) 

Come on now!

"Row" 
***Lyrics***

Feel it rushing in
under your skin 
as it takes you high
and it brings you low
You go you go and 
row row row your boat 

As you drift away 
and feel astray 
from the life you used to call your own 
Then you go you go and 
row row row your boat  

And now we´re going 
against the stream
Climbing the highest tree
Running as far as we can see

Row and row your boat
until you´re safe and sound 
Up the river 
we´re going going going now 
Oh and we don´t know 
where we´re gonna end 
up the river
we´re going going going now
You got to row

As you leave the shore
with a human roar 
and the wind beneath our wings 
we will soar
as you go you go and row row row 
your boat 

And now we´re going 
against the stream. 
Climbing the highest tree
Running as far as we can see

Row and row your boat
until you´re safe and sound 
Up the river 
we´re going going going now 
Oh and we don´t know 
where we´re going to end 
up the river
we´re going going going now
You got to row

Up we´re going to go 
oh and row your boat

"Row" is a modern electro pop song with some rock elements in the end. The video for "Row" was shot at Reykjanes peninsula in the rough lava fields. Director of the video was David Luther and it's produced by Silent Production.

"Bad Boy"
***Lyrics***


Mama ma I met a man
Walking in the summer sand
Wanna wanna be the one
Jump into the deep end

Sun hot skin tanned
Up all night just making plans
Wanna wanna bang the drum
Over before it's begun

We'd stare at the stars together
He said he'd love me forever
Hot nights took our love for ransom
Then came fall and I knew better

Now I know you were a bad bad boy to love
Now I know you were a bad bad boy to trust
I made a mistake I crashed like a wave
I made my escape I brought out the brave

Mama ma I met a man
Stand by me thru thick and thin
He the one loving strong
After boys of summer gone

Hot nights, romance
Showing imperfections
Now I know I know the score
Men from little boys at shore

We'd go out and dance like crazy
Get so gaga, get so hazy
Summer nights so lush and lazy
Love you longtime
You my baby

Now I know you were a bad bad boy to love
Now I know you were a bad bad boy to trust
I made a mistake I crashed like a wave
I made my escape I brought out the brave

I made a mistake I crashed like a wave
I made my escape I brought out the brave
You were a Bad Boy to trust

New Video: Watch "Cauri Grobinai" from Aarzemnieki

It's already two years ago since Latvian band Arzemnieki represented their country at the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 in Copenhagen with the song "Cake To Bake". Do you remember their entry?

Now it's time for new music from Jöran Steinhauer (singer) and Arzemnieki. In the last months they were working on new material and the first song is "Cauri Grobinai". The song is written and composed by Jöran himself. On the video release date they posted this message on Facebook...

Dear friends!
Our new clip is out! We hope so much you'll like it! It's just a start.
to be short: during the last 2 years I've been written so many latvian songs – now it's just the time to record and publish them. One after the other. Untill Christmas we're going to publish several original songs – starting today, with a song about the small Latvian town called „Grobina“.
Everyone, going to the latvian coast town Liepaja, is nearly forced to pass by Grobina. As there are so many great songs about the Latvian „City of Rock 'n' Roll“, Liepaja – I've never heard any song about its neighbour town: Grobina.
Finally I've found the right company to perform those songs – and write a whole lot of new ones! We give each other a certain drive, an inspiration and energy, I have never received before. So it looks like, that finally the PROJECT „Aarzemnieki“ step by step turns out to become the BAND „Aarzemnieki". The band members are a bunch of interesting, intercultural guys, all connected to Latvia. And – after all - this is what „Aarzemnieki“ is all about: We do our best to connect people who keep an interest for Latvia and the Latvian language – NO MATTER where they have been born or which passport they've got.
More informations about the band members, where we met, who they are and so on... will follow soon on our social platforms.
There's even an album in the pipeline. It takes us some time – but we'll take the time, it takes us. We keep on working – and let things happen naturally. Thank you for your great support!
We're back.
Jorans and Aarzemnieki

Arzemnieki - "Cauri Grobinai" (Official Video)


If you wann know what happend while filming the video - watch this "Behind the scenes" video..
"THIS TIME the parody was made by "ourselves", to be honest - We got pranked by our own video director! Thank you so much Artur Nurbegian! WE LOVE IT" they wrote on Facebook about the video
