Song Of The Month

November may be cold and sad, like a signal that winter is lurking right around the corner. However, November may also provide the chance for inspiration, love, and strong emotions. A bittersweet and sensitive song about that month of the year and the strength it provides people with was created by the Dutch progressive rock band Kingfisher Sky. I have to say that this is my favourite track of their debut album ''Hallway Of Dreams'' released back in 2007. The melodic guitar riffs combined with the charismatic voice of their lead singer, Judith Rijnveld, and the melancholic -yet beautiful- lyrics of the song make it this blog's "song of the month". It definitely deserves it! Enjoy!


On a dark November day it fell upon me
Like a veil of grey there's a longing inside of me
to loose all feeling and break free
Still it keeps coming to me

It's a lot to take in a short amount of time
and there are things I don't want to leave behind
When the leaves are falling, they turn to gold and brown
the arms of November keep me down.

Set me free dark November, let me be dark November
In the heart of darkness it's not easy to feel
so many wounds that won't easily heal
Please read my letter before I go
'cause there are things you really should know
