Ánders – You Didn’t Need My Love. 23 year old Swiss-Australian singer songwriter Ánders had me at “You Didn’t Need My Love.” Like Jaymes Young’s folktronica counterpart, “You Didn’t Need My Life” sinks in to a sweet spot where brooding brute force and gently revered guitar meet to fill a slow-burning hole with endless hints of charming dark-tinged pop rock. And just when you think you’ve accurately pegged Ánders’ sound, that guitar break slides in just before the end just to render your ears sublimely senseless. As the first taste of what’s to come from the singer’s forthcoming debut EP that he just spent 7 months writing & recording on the Greek Island of Sifnos, I am eager for what’s next.
Ánders – You Didn’t Need My Love
Written, performed, produced and recorded by Ánders on the Greek island of Sifnos. Mixed by Josh Hopkins at The Rewards Room.
Ánders – You Didn’t Need My Love Lyrics:
Girl there’s too many questions,
I don’t think that my naive, little head can solve.
We’ve been chasin’ ours tails,
I know that the distance will kill the spark we hold.
But my love,
Please don’t cry now,
You didn’t need my love, my love.
So don’t start now.
Oh I’ve seen it tried before,
I think that you underestimate the pain.
And I know you won’t believe it now,
but maybe we will cross each others paths again, and feel the same.
But my love,
Please don’t cry now,
You didn’t need my love, my love.
So don’t start now.
Oh my love,
My love, My love,
Oh so don’t start now.
But my love, Please, don’t cry now,
Although I need your love, your love I won’t start now,
I can’t start now.
