Much more interesting though is his debut album Faction from November last year, for which he coined the word 'Scanbient' to conjure up the style. "Sigur Ros, Bjork, Kings Of Convenience etc - and myself - all have this Scandinavian (and ambient) tone," he says. "There's no way of getting rid of the basics of where you're from... unless you're a fake.". A shade of Elliott Smith and a nod to Eno/Bowie instrumentals can also be detected on Faction, for which both THE WORD and Q MAGAZINE have given great write-ups and reviews.
Henrik is one to watch. Stay tuned.
Real Love
Henrik Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I found it, I found it
I found real love, yeah, I found real love
I found it, I found it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I know the way that it goes
You're broken and feeling alone
Sometimes I'm feeling like God might've left me
But I promise I'll never let go
And I promise you're never alone
I put aside what the world had to offer
I found real love in the arms of the Father (Yeah, huh)
No cap, tired of feeling sad at night
Crying out to Adonai, I need something to satisfy
Need You to put me together, I'm broken
All in my head and I can't even focus
I wanna live and not go through the motions
Wanna believe in the Word that You spoken
I swear I try, but I'm falling short
So take my life, Jesus, I'm all Yours
I don't wanna waste my time listening to all the lies
Love is patient, love is kind, never failing, love is God
I know the way that it goes
You're broken and feeling alone
Sometimes I'm feeling like God might've left me
Hole in my chest, take a breath, I feel empty
But I promise I'll never let go
And I promise you're never alone
I put aside what the world had to offer
I found real love in the arms of the Father (Yeah, yeah)
Uh-huh, okay
I'm a mess, for real-for real
Falling in sin, I push You away
Fighting these demons I can't seem to kill
Huh, yeah, they haunt me
Skeletons in my closet
I'm just so exhausted
Feeling like I lost it
Used to believe what I could see
Follow the world, they lied to me
Breath in my lungs, I can breathe
I can't believe that You died for me
I don't deserve it
So far from perfect
World say I'm worthless
But you say I'm worth it (Yeah, ayy)
I know the way that it goes
You're broken and feeling alone
Sometimes I'm feeling like God might've left me
Hole in my chest, take a breath, I feel empty
But I promise I'll never let go
And I promise you're never alone
I put aside what the world had to offer
I found real love in the arms of the Father
