Elin has danced since she was seven years old. But then she injured her knee and decided to go for the music. Her dad was laying a floor for the director of the record company Rodeo Records. At that time Elin recorded some songs and gave them to the director.
In 2006 she participated in the TV show "Rampfeber", on Sweden's TV4 and sang duets with Runar Sörgaard.
Elin also participated in the first heat of Melodifestivalen 2007 with the song 'Money'. She made the second chance, but did not reach the final.
We Fly
Elin Lanto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take it off, get out of there
It's a big show baby
Play the role and break a leg
You and me
Don't see eye to eye
But that's alright with me
I don't cheat, I never lie
Our love will never die
I wanna be the one who holds you
When we fly
Fill it up now, sugar
I'm all empty and in the red
It's a long road, baby
Pay the toll, full steam ahead
We need to be on the same side
Cause you're like my family
I know we gonna get by
I don't cheat, I never lie
Our love will never die
I wanna be the one who holds you
When we fly
My love for you will never die
I wanna be the one to holds you
When we fly
Another place to call home
Another way to move on
Well, we will always find another way
To open the doors and go on with our lives today
Our love will never die
I wanna be the one to holds you
When we fly
We will make it, we will find our way
We will make it, we will find our way
I don't cheat, I never lie.
In "We Fly," Elin Lanto sings about a struggling relationship that will never die despite the differences in opinion and the bumpy roads ahead. The first verse suggests the idea of being mentally checked by saying "get your head checked, honey, take it off, get out of there." It means that one should get their head straight and avoid overthinking the relationship. It's a big show, play the role, and break a leg. She is referring to the relationship being a big part of her life and wants her partner to come along.
Later in the chorus, she says "You and me don't see eye to eye, but that's alright with me, I'm gonna stay by your side." The line implies that even though they are different, it doesn't matter as long as they are together. The song highlights the importance of staying together and never letting go, even in the most challenging times. She says, "I don't cheat, I never lie, our love will never die. I wanna be the one who holds you when we fly." She wants to be a support system for her partner and be there for them through thick and thin.
The second verse talks about how they need to be on the same side and how the relationship is as crucial as family. "We need to be on the same side cause you're like my family, I know we gonna get by." By saying this, she emphasizes the closeness and importance of the relationship. Furthermore, she repeats the statement that their love will never die in the bridge, emphasizing and reassuring that their bond is strong and unbreakable.
