Simon Wilcox and Shridhar Solanki met in London by accident. But theirs was a beautiful accident and another chance meeting in Los Angeles led to the creation of their critically acclaimed single, 'Northern Lights', which made its debut in the Twilight Saga film, Breaking Dawn. This was followed by the pair's debut EP 'King'.
Wilcox and Solanki's musical mission is to put forth a little more beauty and light into the world. Full of positive energy, love and optimism, their songs resonate with that moment at dusk when the last few brilliant rays of sunshine convalesce to refract a Cider Sky.
Northern Lights
Cider Sky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Suddenly I realize everything I thought was impossible is here
And my heart sings in a world so incredible
And everything burns much brighter
I (I) want to fly (fly) into this beautiful life
I think it'd be nice with you
I want to fly (fly) into this beautiful life
Fingertips, northern lights, tracing colors right through the sky
Underneath a lullaby I never felt as blissful as I do here
And my heart sings in a world so incredible
And everything shines much brighter
I (I) want to fly (fly) into this beautiful life
I think it'd be nice with you
I want to fly (fly) into this beautiful life
I think it'd be nice with you with you, with you, with you
Set the night on fire if we want to
Hanging out with the stars and the big moon
I very well thank you how do you do
Set the night on fire if we want to
Hanging out with the stars and the big moon
Put them down for a dance with your lasso
I think it'd be nice with you, with you
I think it'd be nice with you, with you
I think it'd be nice with you, with you
I think it'd be nice with you, with you

Every time I close my eyes I can touch the colors around me
I am able to feel the vibrancy of my surroundings without even seeing them
Suddenly I realize everything I thought was impossible is here
I have come to the realization that what I once deemed as unachievable is now within my grasp
And my heart sings in a world so incredible
I am filled with joy by the amazing world around me

Everything appears to be enhanced and more brilliant than usual
Fingertips, northern lights, tracing colors right through the sky
With my fingertips I am able to trace the Northern Lights as they paint colorful patterns across the sky

We can spend time enjoying the company of the stars and the large, luminous moon

I express gratitude and ask how the other person is doing
Put them down for a dance with your lasso
We can make the stars and moon dance with a playful lasso

I feel that experiencing all of these incredible things would be even better with you
