thetruththelovethelife by Markús

I released this as a single here appearantly, I dont remember, before I released the LP The Truth The Love The Life. It is a sweet song with sweet lyrics and was cowritten with my good friend Kristján Freyr Einarsson. He was imitating and making fun of someone that would be making a pop song, and came up with the start and the first lines, sweet nothing compares to you, dressed in nothing in the middle of june,. Its such a spin on many clichés at once, and the verse was catchy - It stayed with me for a long time and I began adding to it and loving it. I came up with my own meaning for the lyrics that sat well for me, and eventually it became this epic sweet popballad that has the title of my first solo LP. The arrangements of the brass, was masterfully done by Georg Kári Hilmarsson who plays bass also in The Diversion Sessions, and the hypnotic drums by Sigþór Ási glue the song perfectly together. Steingrímur Teague played synth and keys brilliantly also. Enjoy.
