In The Music
Ben Liebrand Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No turning back. We're lost in music.
We're lost in music. Feel so alive.
I quit my nine-to-five. We're lost in music.
Have you ever seen some people lose everything?
First to go is their mind.
Responsibility to me is a tragedy.
I want to join a band and play in front of crazy fans.
Yes
I call that temptation.
Give me a melody. That's all that I ever need.
The music is my salvation.
We're lost in music; caught in a trap
In the spotlight
The band plays so very tight
Each and every night.
It's not vanity. To me
It's my sanity.
I could never survive.
Some people ask of me: What are you gonna be?
Why don't you go get a job? All that I can say:
I won't give up my music
Not me
Not now
No way
No how.
We're lost in music
Caught in a trap
Caught in our muslc.
No turning back. We're lost in music.
We're lost in music - don't take away our music
Feel so alive
Feel.
I quit I quit my nine-to-five. Yeah
We're lost in music.
We're lost in music melody is good to me.
Caught in a trap
I'm caught.
Oh baby
No turning back. No
No
No
We're lost in music.
We're lost in music.
The lyrics of “Lost In Music” by Ben Liebrand and Sacha Liebrand talk about the love for music and the difficulty of having to give up a passion for the sake of pursuing traditional career paths. The first lines express that the singers are so immersed in music that they feel like they are caught or trapped, unable to turn back. In fact, they feel like they are so lost in music that quitting their office jobs feels like the only choice they have. They have found a new purpose, something that makes them feel alive and complete.
The second verse suggests that the desire to pursue music in lieu of conventional career choices can be viewed as irresponsible by some, but to the singers, it is a necessity, a way of preserving mental health. The music takes them to a different level of existence, one where they can forget about the mundane aspects of life and enjoy themselves, as well as their audience. The last part of the lyrics reiterates the idea that music is a drug, and the more they play, the more they feel lost in it.

DIT IS ZOO GOED!! Ik ging vrijdag snachts uit bed om het cassettedeck op record te zetten, daarna kon ik rustig gaan slapen en de week erna genieten op mijn sony walkman!!!

Ben was mijn grootste held uit jaren 80 was ook groot Italo fan en ook daar wist hij wel raad mee qua mixen😊 Ben z’n mixen zal ik nooit vergeten in de mooiste jaren...
Maurice Banen
Ben is een begrip in de muziek wereld.
Buiten de mixen die hij in zijn studio maakt zijn de live mix sessies van Ben misschien nog wel beter want daar mag je geen foutje maken.
Altijd een genot om naar de Ben Liebrand mixen te luisteren.
Ben is en blijft mijn grote voorbeeld.
Douwe Rijpsma
Heerlijke tijden waren dat. Van 2:00 tot 3:00 In the mix met Ben Liebrand. Daarvoor was van 0:00 tot 2:00 De stemband met Kees Schilperoort. Heerlijk. Iedere week in de aanslag met mijn cassette-deck. En dan op mijn walkman weer luisteren...
