This is definitely for me the best German music in recent years. A great mix of soft ballads with very poetic lyrics and a few rock pieces, which "on us" now, not least because of the World Cup in Brazil, almost everyone should know. I think this song good to very good. For me he is, however, stylistically rather an outlier on this album. Andreas Bouranis new CD is more marked by gently until melancholic sounding ballads that tell of love lust and love and sorrow of farewells and departures. The quality of his lyrics clearly stands out from the off what one knows so commonly in German rock and pop music. I am writing this deliberately without taking concrete comparisons with other German musicians. That would not be fair towards these. For that reason alone, because tastes obviously differ. The songs are mostly instrumental designed rather decent except for the rock songs, which was a very good decision of the producers. The gentle yet powerful voice of Andreas Bourani comes hereby excellent for carrying
If I that does not contain a single weak piece from this album, a song especially highlighting, then this is due to the poetry that emanates from this piece. It's the no. 13 "being". The last piece on the CD. The artist will know why he did this song the rest of his CD. For me, the song the rest of this very good album so much in the shadows that he otherwise could not, as it put the final. A gentle melody with a text which reminds me of the I greatly revered songwriter Hermann van Veen.
