βBoring DJs be very afraid: Gareth Emery is about to kick your arseβ. So said Mixmag, when in 2002, they took the bold step of predicting that a virtually unknown 22 year-old would rise to become a major dance music star. However, six years later, itβs likely that even their expectations have been well surpassed. His current tour diary reads like the departure board at Londonβs Heathrow Airport. Desert island raves in Indonesia and snow-drenched mountains in Vancouver sit alongside major global events like San Franciscoβs iconic Love Fest and Hollandβs 30,000 strong Trance Energy. The likes of Asian superclub Zouk and Bondi Beach in Sydney complete the picture: in short, youβll find Gareth at a mouth-watering, hand-picked selection of the planetβs coolest clubs and events, including UK super brands like Ministry of Sound and Gatecrasher.
When not on tour, heβs kept rakishly busy in his Cambridgeshire studio as one of the sceneβs most in-demand producers and remixes. If youβre not familiar with anthems like βMore Than Anythingβ, βFormentera Whatβ or his seminal classic βMistralβ, youβre probably a little out of touch with the modern dance scene, but suffice to say that Tiesto, Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten and Judge Jules are all big fans, and Paul van Dyk and Armin van Buuren liked his work so much that they both commissioned him to work on their respective labels (Vandit / Armind). However, the majority of his music is still released on his Five AM imprint, (described by DJ Mag as βthe most consistent trance label in the worldβ), where heβs a co-owner and A&R. Whatever the label, one thing thatβs clear is that Gareth Emery stamps his hallmark of quality on a record, people listen.
Always ahead of the game, Gareth was the one of the first leading DJs to embrace podcasting when he started his fortnightly radio show The Gareth Emery Podcast in early 2006. The show become an overnight success, immediately becoming an essential download for savvy dance music fans, and its widely imitated format has since helped to explode the popularity of dance music podcasts. It was also nominated for a Miami WMC IDMA Award for βBest Podcastβ along with Roger Sanchez and Pete Tong in 2007.
Although he always ranked well in the annual DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll, he became cynical about the amount of advertising and self-promotion that DJs put into it, and in 2013 asked fans not to vote for him.
Gareth haΘ worked with a number of collaborators and vocalists, including his sister Roxanne Emery.
Far From Home
Gareth Emery Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I can't keep on talking
To myself like this, like this
Now I realize that it's your voice I miss
I miss
When you can't run fast, I'll walk with you
When you can't stand up, I'll carry you, too
You'll never be alone
Even when you're far, far, far from home
And I'm screaming no sound
Between lost and found
And the only face I see
Is from my darkest dream, dark dream
If I make it home this time I'll never leave
Won't leave
When you can't run fast, I'll walk with you
When you can't stand up, I'll carry you, too
Even in the darkest hour
You'll never be alone
Even when you're far, far, far from home
In Gareth Emery's song "Far From Home," the lyrics convey a sense of loneliness, longing, and a deep connection between two individuals. The singer questions their sanity and whether they are in sync with time, as they find themselves constantly talking to themselves. However, they come to realize that it is the voice of the person they miss that they long for.
The chorus speaks to the unconditional support and unwavering presence of a comforting companion. The singer promises to walk with the other person when they can't run fast and carry them when they can't stand up. It emphasizes the importance of being there for someone even in their darkest hour, ensuring that they never feel alone even when they are physically far from home.
The second verse describes a state of confusion, feeling lost yet trying to find a way back. It mentions a face that only appears in their darkest dreams, perhaps representing the person they long for. The singer expresses a desire to make it home this time and promises to never leave again if they succeed.
Overall, "Far From Home" communicates the universal human need for connection, support, and love, especially during times of isolation and uncertainty. The lyrics depict the deep longing for someone's presence, the comforting feeling of not being alone, and the determination to find one's way back home emotionally and physically.

Am I out of my mind am I keeping in time
I am questioning my sanity and whether I am in sync with the world
'Cause I can't keep on talking
I can't continue having meaningless conversations with myself
To myself like this, like this
To constantly be alone with my thoughts in this manner
Now I realize that it's your voice I miss
I now understand that I long for the sound of your voice
I miss
I deeply long for your presence
When you can't run fast, I'll walk with you
When you are unable to move swiftly, I will support and accompany you at a slower pace
When you can't stand up, I'll carry you, too
When you are unable to stand on your own, I will bear the weight and assist you
Even in the darkest hour
Even during the bleakest and most challenging times
You'll never be alone
You will always have someone by your side
Even when you're far, far, far from home
Even when you are physically distant and feeling isolated
And I'm screaming no sound
I am expressing my anguish and desperation silently
Between lost and found
In the state of being neither completely lost nor found
And the only face I see
The only image that appears before me
Is from my darkest dream, dark dream
Is a representation of my deepest fears and nightmares
If I make it home this time I'll never leave
If I manage to return home, I will never willingly depart again
Won't leave
I am determined to stay
When you can't run fast, I'll walk with you
When you are unable to move swiftly, I will support and accompany you at a slower pace
When you can't stand up, I'll carry you, too
When you are unable to stand on your own, I will bear the weight and assist you
Even in the darkest hour
Even during the bleakest and most challenging times
You'll never be alone
You will always have someone by your side
Even when you're far, far, far from home
Even when you are physically distant and feeling isolated

When you can't run fast
I'll walk with you
When you can't stand up
I'll carry you too
Even in the darkest hour
You'll never be alone
Even when you're far, far, far
From home

Am I out of my
Mind
Am I keepin' in
Time
Cuz I can't keep on talkin' to myself like this
Like this
Now I realize that it's your voice I miss
I miss
When you can't run fast

From home
And I'm screaming no

Between lost and
Found
And the only face I see is from my darkest dream
Dark dream
If I make it home, this time I'll never leave
Won't leave
When you can't run fast

When you can't stand up
I'll carry you, too
Even in the darkest hour
You'll never be alone
Even when you're far, far, far
From home
