From playing absolute rockabilly in the beginning, John Lindberg Trio have incorporated modern influences along the way and created a tougher sound, without losing the rockabilly style.
Combined with their tight and explosive live show, this made them one of Sweden’s most popular live acts.
John Lindberg Trio musical journey started with 13 year old John on stage with his guitar.
When Martin (double-bass) and Jocke (drums) joined later on, everything fell into place. In spite of their young age they are already widely experienced and have done more live gigs than most band do in a lifetime. The release of their debut album in 2006 was followed by a Christmas tour as supporting act for The Refreshments – and consistently became the band people talked about when the night was over. The two following albums were well received by their old fans and also generated lots of new. The band is now planning to release their fifth album in February 2011.
John Lindberg Trio journey continues, with no ending in sight.
Empty Beer Cans
John Lindberg Trio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Im the only one left
Empty beer cans all around me
Taste pf whisky on my lip
Summer is her, but it feels like winter when youre gone
I miss your smile, I miss your laught, I miss our song
Now youre gone, and I think of you.
I think of you.
I tried to sleep, but im afraid of dreaming.
The lyrics of John Lindberg Trio's song "Empty Beer Cans" capture the feeling of loneliness and heartbreak. The song starts with the scene of the singer being the last person left in a bar, surrounded by empty beer cans, and having the taste of whiskey on his lips. Despite it being summertime, he feels cold and empty without his partner who has left him. He misses her smile, laughter, and most importantly, their shared song. In the absence of his lover, he can't find peace and is instead haunted by painful dreams.
The pain of missing someone is not easy to describe, but the artist puts it all into words in the second verse. He has tears on his cheeks as he lies in his bed, unable to sleep because he is afraid of dreaming about the one who left him. The song touches on the themes of heartbreak, loss, and longing, which are quite relatable.

Sitt along in this bar
I am sitting alone in a bar
Im the only one left
I am the last person remaining in the bar
Empty beer cans all around me

Taste pf whisky on my lip

Summer is her, but it feels like winter when youre gone
Even though it is summer, it feels like winter when you are not here with me
I miss your smile, I miss your laught, I miss our song
I miss your smile, I miss your laugh, and I miss the song we used to share
Now youre gone, and I think of you.
You are gone now, and I keep thinking about you
I think of you.
I keep thinking about you
Lay awake in my bed, teras left marks on my cheek.
I am lying awake in bed, tears have left marks on my cheek
I tried to sleep, but im afraid of dreaming.
I tried to sleep, but I am scared of dreaming
