about

Nothing Really Matters - journey to a raw and personal place
Nominated for Grammy 2017 in the category of Best Rock Song

Strong, emotional atmosphere that suggest certain desperation, a certain letting go. The grayness of emotion that comes with necessary change and moving out of a bad situation. This is what comes through in the moving, yet disturbing, engrossing, yet unsettling ‘Nothing Really Matters'.

This is not your ordinary rock single. This is a compelling work of art that creates ‘a near-menacing atmosphere’, become visceral and indelible in the listener's consciousness. This is a song that ‘sizzles with power and passion’ and has been described as ‘deep, genuine and extremely powerful’, as ‘emotionally and instrumentally intense’. 'Nothing Really Matters' takes the listener to a raw and personal place.

lyrics

Nothing Really Matters

I know that something happened to me, a different time in history
I come, you go, I say hello, you pass me by, you don't reply
Of all the changes you became, sometimes I feel that even I am not the same.

You filled the cup, I paid the bills, my love for you was never still
So long my love you had to leave, the end of all our make-believe
Of all the changes I've been through, the changes took and ran away with you

Nothing really matters somehow;
nothing really matters without your love...
Somehow, nothing really matters without

So listen now carefully, I was here and we were family
so long ago I can't believe, just what we gave, what we received
Of all the stones that we once threw, the ones that bounced across the tides were few

Nothing really matters somehow;
nothing really matters without your love...
Somehow, nothing really matters without
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Listen now carefully!
Nothing really matters somehow;
nothing really matters without your love...
Somehow, nothing really matters without
nothing really matters…yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Of all the stones that we once threw, the bounce was high, the tide was new. But all we did was make-believe, just what we gave, what we received. The time for fun, now we just run in self defence, hiding from the sun

I know that something happened to me,
at a point in time of our history
