Some advertisements can take u to another world..I`ve often discovered the best music in ads. Likewise I saw one yesterday.
It was an advertistement for Saab.
Its not the visuals that attracted me but the background song. So much so, that I set off on an internet mission to find the artist and listen to the whole song.
I succeeded..and maybe there may be some among my readers who shares my taste in music..so let me share what I found.
Its sung by a Swedish band called Laura ..and they are about to bring out their first album next month. Here`s a youtube video featuring them recording this very song.
Here`s the Lyrics to the song
I am the wilderness locked in a cage
I am a growing force you kept in place
I am a tree reaching for the sun
Please don't hold me down
Please don't hold me down
I am a rolling wave without the motion
A glass of water longing for the ocean
I am an asphalt flower breaking free but you keep stopping me
Release me
Release me
I am the rain that's coming down on you
That you shielded yourself from with a roof
I am the fire burning desperately but you're controlling me
Release me
Release me
and if , like me u like it so much, that u just have to have it...click THIS and save the file. Its from Saab`s own website.
To listen to two more songs from Laura, visit their My space site....and if u want their official website its here. Enjoy.
