Sofia Talvik has emerged like a lady of the forest, bringing a new interesting side to folk music. Soft, airy, and graceful, Sofia Talvik sings both songs that touch on themes of love and heartbreak, as well as a healthy dose of anecdotal stories from her own life.
At the age of eighteen she left behind the comfort of home for the bright lights and lonely nights of Stockholm. There every experience, good and bad, would soon take the form of a beautiful, funny or heartbreaking song.
She's playing a unique blend of folk-pop (someone said Neo-Folk). This American genre filtered through her Swedish heritage, becomes something totally unique, a blend that has attracted attention from a broad audience all over the world.
Her soft and airy music at her combination of modal chord changes and beautiful 60's euro-pop melodies combined with the gentle singing of a 70's folk songstress will make you think of Joni Mitchell, Nick Drake, Jewel and Aimee Mann.
Her soft and airy music has been recognized by music lovers and critics all over the world letting her tour the US several times and making her the first ever Swedish female singer to play at the Lollapalooza festival.

It's Just Love
Sofia Talvik Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Standing where I used to
Fall for you but tonight
I'll be wearing your shoes
Wearing you life,
As I go outside
I'm not the one that will easily hide,
Easily hide in my
I can't lose.
State your case
Make this race if it'll
Make you feel good
Make you feel good with your
Selfasteem
When I wake up
It'll all be a dream
All be a dream when I
Close my eyes
I will see it's still
You and me
You and me so I
Close my eyes
To all the lies
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
It's just love
How hard can it be
I'm within
I'll be crawling round under your skin
Searching your lungs and your
Veins for where
You are keeping
The things you don't share
Tasting the sweat on your upper lip
When you're worn out I'll still be a hit
Still be a hit in my
Brand new shoes
I can't lose
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
It's just love
How hard can it be
For you and me
It's just love
It's just love
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
It's just love
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
It's just love
How hard can it be
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
It's just love
I know
I know
We can get through
This if we really try
It's just love
