The group's vocalist is Silvy de Bie (born January 4, 1981) and keyboardist/songwriter is Wout Van Dessel (born October 19, 1974). Regi Penxten is the producer and co-songwriter.

Silvy began her musical career at the age of nine on the Belgian television series De Kinderacademie (The Children's Academy). Belgian law prohibiting children under 16 from working, however, put a sudden end to this career. Later, she returned with the band "Lance".

Wout is a well known Belgian DJ. He and Silvy were acquainted at the disco where he was the resident DJ.

Sylver has not only toured its homeland of Belgium, but also North America, South Africa, Asia, Scandinavia, and Eastern Europe.

History

In 2001 Sylver hit Germany with their debut album Chances, including the single "Turn the Tide". The single immediately moved to number 8 in the charts, and within 8 weeks was number 2 (under Atomic Kitten's Whole Again), staying in the top 10 for 12 weeks. A month later, the album debuted at 16 and spent 49 weeks in the top 100. The single Forever In Love also made the charts.

The second album, Little Things (2003) was no less successful, with the singles "Livin' My Life" and "Why Worry".

On November 2, 2004, the third album, Nighttime Calls, was released. The first single from this album, "Love is an Angel", hit the Belgian top 10 immediately upon its release on September 20.

Their fourth album, "Crossroads", was released in Europe on the 19th of May 2006. The first single from the latter album was "Lay All Your Love On Me".

A greatest hits album was released in 2007 featuring two new songs, including their newest single, "The One".

The group went on hiatus in 2007 while Silvy had her daughter (named Noor, born November 7th, 2007) but has since resumed performing in early 2008.

In addition to synthesizer and drum machine, Sylver uses guitar, piano, and percussion instruments.

Easy Way Out
Sylver Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I need
Is all I've got
All I need
Is everything you're not

Things are going great
And they'll only get better
The cruel twist of fate

Has changed my life
A little more time
And get my life together
The only thing that's not
Worth fighting for

All I need
Is all I've got
All I need
Is everything you're not

There's no easy way out
No matter what you say
There's no easy way out
You can't just walk away
No matter where you go
I will always know
There's no easy way out
No easy way out

A place to go
Beyond spacious skies
That I can call my own
Happiness awaits
I cleanse myself again
Washing away all your sins
Cause then and only then
I will be free

All I need
Is all I've got
All I need
Is everything you're not

There's no easy way out
No matter what you say
There's no easy way out
You can't just walk away
No matter where you go
I will always know
There's no easy way out
No easy way out

No matter what you say
You can't just walk away
I will always know
No easy way out

There's no easy way out
No matter what you say
There is no easy way out
You can't just walk away
No matter where you go
I will always know
There's no easy way out
No easy way out

No easy way out

No easy way out

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sylver's song "Easy Way Out" revolve around the theme of self-discovery and personal growth. The opening lines of the song "All I need is all I've got, all I need is everything you're not" suggest that the singer of the song has realized that they no longer need external validation or approval to move forward in life. They have come to the understanding that all they need to succeed is within them and they have everything they need to move ahead.

The verse "The cruel twist of fate has changed my life, a little more time and get my life together, the only thing that’s not worth fighting for" shows that the singer is no longer holding onto elements of their past that no longer serve them. They accept their past and look forward to what the future holds for them. The chorus "There's no easy way out, no matter what you say, you can't just walk away. No matter where you go, I will always know. There's no easy way out" reflects the reality that life isn't always easy and sometimes we have to face tough challenges head-on while acknowledging that there is no easy way out of them.

The bridge "A place to go, beyond spacious skies that I can call my own, happiness awaits. I cleanse myself again, washing away all your sins, 'cause then and only then, I will be free" portrays a sense of freedom and liberation that one can experience once they let go of the past and embrace new beginnings. Ultimately, "Easy Way Out" is an empowering song that encourages listeners to find strength within themselves and embrace change in their lives.

Line by Line Meaning

All I need
I don't need anything else in my life

Is all I've got
I already have everything I need

All I need
Again, I have everything I need

Is everything you're not
But you are not the right person for me

Things are going great
I'm doing well in life

And they'll only get better
Things will continue to improve for me

The cruel twist of fate
Something unexpected and bad happened to me

Has changed my life
As a result, my life has been altered

A little more time
If I just have a bit more time

And get my life together
I can organize my life better

The only thing that's not
But the one thing that's not worth it
