Kopmajer grew up in a family of musicians and began singing in her father's band when she was 12. At the same time she studied piano, though singing remained her first love. Early on, she entered and won various talent contests and even made appearances on television in her native country, Austria. As a young performer, she twice toured the Netherlands with the “Euro Big Band” and later appeared in several international jazz festivals.
Influenced by some of the great American vocalists like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and Jon Hendricks, Kopmajer has developed into a true jazz singer who uses a wide variety of rhythms and excels in her very individual style of scatting.
Kopmajer received her Masters Degree from the University for Music and Dramatic Arts in Graz, Austria where she had the opportunity to work with such jazz luminaries as Mark Murphy, Sheila Jordan, Michele Hendricks, Jay Clayton, and the New York Voices.

Simone Kopmajer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm
May be surrounded by
A million people I
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know
And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
"I'm fine baby, how are you?"
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that
Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky, I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home
And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
This was not your dream
But you always believed in me
Another winter day has come
And gone away
In either Paris or Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home
And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel alone
And let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know
Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It'll all be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home
The song "Home" by Simone Kopmajer is a powerful ballad about the longing for home and the yearning to be with someone special. The lyrics of the song speak to the feelings of loneliness that can come despite being surrounded by people and having success in life. The opening lines of the song describe a summer's day passing in Paris or Rome. While the cities are picturesque, the singer longs to be back home, where they feel like they belong. The chorus is a plea to return home, to be closer to the person they miss.
The second verse of the song describes the writer's feelings of isolation, even though they are surrounded by people. They have been keeping letters to send home to their loved one, but they know that the words are not enough. They feel guilty for not being able to share more with the person they miss, asking for forgiveness for their cold words. The chorus repeats, as the writer yearns to come home.
The final verse of the song describes the winter, passing in Paris or Rome. The writer is still surrounded by people, but they feel alone. In a final plea to come home, the singer asks for permission to leave, to return to where they belong. The song ends with a promise to return home, where everything will be all right.
Overall, "Home" is a poignant and heartfelt song that speaks to anyone who has ever been homesick, or felt like they do not belong. The lyrics are beautifully crafted to evoke strong emotions in the listener, creating a powerful sense of longing and nostalgia.
