She felt a deep desire to develop her singing, so two years later she began taking singing lessons. When she learned to play the piano, she developed a way to express herself in her music and to give a message to her deep and soulful songs.
In 2006 she won a national music contest. From then on, Neda started doing a lot of performances in the Netherlands. But not only did she stay there;
In the summer of 2007 she did a music tour in Kenya for orphanages, schools, slums and different tribes to educate about HIV and AIDS in a creative and musical way. In the summer of 2008 she went to India to investigate child prostitution and give workshops and performances about women’s rights.
When she was 18 years old, she received her certificate for giving music workshops and started to work as a vocal coach and workshop teacher.
End of 2012 she participated in the media project ‘Thumbs up Africa’, where she hitchhiked 24.000km from The Netherlands to South Africa, followed by a camera crew. During this trip she visited many development projects and did many performances.
End of december 2013 Neda won both the audience price and the jury price of the Music Matters Awards, which made her the music ambassador of Rotterdam for one whole year and gave her a price of 15.000 euro to invest in her music career.
Neda graduated on the music conservatory of Rotterdam at the beginning of 2014 for her Bachelor of Music. She successfully released her first EP ‘When Lambs Become Lions’ in october 2014. De EP contains 5 of Neda Boin’s self written songs that have a Pop/Soul/Gospel sound to it.
She’s currently doing a lot of shows and giving music workshops in schools and juveniles.
Neda sees herself as a messenger and uses her voice as a tool to reach out to the world. As one of her songs states: “When we got music, we got love”.
Take Me Home
Neda Boin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of the unknown
I'm so afraid to be alone
I try to hear
Your guiding Voice
But still I don′t know where to go
But I see Your hand next to mine
And I'm holding on so tight
You'll never let go
Take me home today
I wanna go home today
Take me home where I truly belong
Take me home today
My heart speaks so clear
But still I′m paralysed by fear
I lack in trust
I lack in faith
My ego made me go astray
And I see your hand next to mine
And I′m holding on so tight
Please promise me you'll never let go
Take me home today
I wanna go home today
Take me home where I truly belong
Take me home today
Lead the path for me
Wherever you go, there I′ll be
Show me the way to be where I never left
Take me there
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home where I truly belong
Take me home today
Take me home today
I wanna go home today
Take me home where I truly belong
Take me home today
Take me home
