ANNEKE VAN GIERSBERGEN - My Promise (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

ANNEKE VAN GIERSBERGEN - My Promise (OFFICIAL VIDEO)
From Anneke’s forthcoming album "The Darkest Skies Are The Brightest".
Pre-order the album now at annekevangiersbergen.lnk.to/T... - out February 26, 2021.
Music and words by Anneke van Giersbergen
Directed by Jasper van Gheluwe
Anneke comments: “I wrote ‘My Promise’ when I imagined what life after divorce would really entail. The lyrics deal with a determination to fight for love. The song starts off with an acoustic Arabo-Spanish Gypsy vibe and gradually builds towards a euphoric ending. Ruud Peeters wrote a hauntingly melancholic string arrangement.”
Anneke continues: “We shot the video in Radio Royaal, one of my favourite restaurants in my hometown Eindhoven and it shows a few defining moments in a relationship, represented by different couples.”

Lyrics:
flowing with the tides
tranquil you and I
distorted sense of time
sense of life
what would you say
if ever I would leave
I stay you go
we’re giving up I know
you stay I go
I will run through fire
I will ride the storm
I swear I will
in the line of fire
we meet with our desire
bullets graze our hearts
at the speed of light
I will run through fire
I will ride the storm
I swear I will
I want you home
I will run through fire
I will ride the storm
I swear I will
to take you home
there is no one to show me
how heaven and earth will collide
won’t you run with me
and defy the storm
there is no one to show me
how heaven and earth will collide
only you comprehend
only I will defend you

[@LLeoLopes]

The most beautiful voice. Been listening to her songs for more than 20 years now and the only thing I see is evolution.

[@lenonkrk1]

Same :)

[@larsmich1874]

Same here... ;)

[@aff]

Que legal encontrar brasileiros que curtem o som dela! Anneke é maravilhosa desde sempre!

[@willasacco9898]

I only discovered the, mainly Dutch, symphonic metal bands recently and I am making up for lost time. Have you seen the latest video, from her brand-new album? Check it out.

[@markamarka2050]

First time seeing Anneke was in 1997...The Nighttime birds tour with The Gathering....Seen her many times, many times, many venues in many countries...but for me the best female vocalist ever;)

[@ferdinand1687]

I regret that she doesn’t have more recognition, she has been in music for quite a while, she has voice so particular and beautiful. She should be known as one of the best voices of the contemporary times

[@FaithsFallen]

She has from the people that have the ability to realise how magical she is!

[@KinkyNothing]

@@FaithsFallenExactly. That's why she has kept going for so long after all

[@citizencat3515]

My opinion is that she would have it if she had not left the Gathering. Her departure in practice killed the band and on the other hand did not help her career. However magnificent singer she is, her songwriting seem not to keep up with her vocal talents. As a former huge fan of the Gathering I regret that but I also accept her decision.

[@punkiller666]

you'd regret it if it was your fault but it's not. I'm sure she's happy the way things are, when fame comes, also comes studio interference, hypercommercial practices and what not. And about citizen cat's comment, as much as it pains me, I agree with you, TG's songwriting and melody writing was without compare, in my opinion both entities lost in their separation. Yet there are beautiful and memorable songs in both their outputs after. Much would I desire to see a reunion, even if for a little bit, to write new material, alas I doesn't seem likely.

[@viictorRL]

she will probably never get the recognition she might deserve, because his music doest not aim to huge masses, like Lady Gaga or Billie Elliesh

[@sindrag1300]

I love her voice since "Mandylion". For me, one of the best female singer on this word!

[@much_love]

same

[@gerardschotman4763]

Anneke ,when you breath even than you breath music.

[@vince300100]

Incredible legato skills and spectacular breath control. She can sustain long melodic lines and notes without taking a single breath, this is what always impressed me about her, along with her unique voice tone and powerful resonance. For me, she is the most gifted female voice in the world right now, she deserve more recognition, that's for sure.

[@nadiauribe6202]

Love her live performance "Waking Hour", with The Gathering. She is amazing!

[@godscoldhands1868]

ever listened to the voice of allison goldfrapp.?? she's unbeatable...

[@midnight-2021]

Listening to Anneke sing is a much more pleasurable drug than alcohol or any other drug because her voice is so addictive to our minds and for this reason her voice is like an addictive drug.

[@cylexxxicago]

@@midnight-2021 ??? Okay

[@marquesojr]

Her voice is an sophisticated instrument...

[@oststadtseuche]

I've been listening to this album for two years now. Every time this voice grabs me and takes me to another place. This voice hurts my heart in a beautiful way. A sweet pain. I often have this album played in my patient's room on early duty. I work as a critical care nurse in an ICU and this room full of flashing and beeping machines is getting a little more human.

[@dandnk]

OMG OMG OMG love love love

[@AlienorchestraNetoslo]

Anneke has been here for a while, her unique voice is so powerful, this brand new song approves it all, acoustic guitar, percussions, violin and cello make it sound even better... 10/10

[@ZSAZSS09]

10/ 10? No, let's crank it up to twelve.

[@AlienorchestraNetoslo]

@@ZSAZSS09 spot on!

INSTANT TEARS!!!!! The Gathering fan since "Always..." here, and of Anneke ever since I heard her (and saw her live with The Gathering and solo). She is MAGICAL.

[@Rosannasfriend]

As someone who has only seen a few videos of hers over the past couple of years, this is the first time I could really enjoy her voice. Not that it ever sounded bad, but I never got a sense of what people loved so much about it. This is mind blowingly amazing!

[@PabloJ1968]

Check: The Gathering. Start with : Leaves. Than song will give you another dimension of her work. Then keep digging all her work wth metal act Devin Townsend, Vuur and Aqua. Enjoy the ride. Cheers.

Looking at Anneke over the years not only is she a great singer songwriter that covered multiple genres and did this to perfection but her different styles of hair over the years rocks as well. Anneke should be a hair model on the side because every different hair style with the different lengths and different hair color over the years matches the beauty of her singing and songwriting. And from what I hear of Anneke is that her personality is amazing as well.
