Leon of Athens may sound like Shakespeare, but this rising indie-pop star is writing his own heroic tale from Athens to London. Following the success of his debut UK album ‘Global’, Leon is now completing his new album with producer David Kosten (Bat for Lashes, Everything Everything), expected to be released in 2017.
In 2014 he moved to London and released his second album ‘Global’, which was produced by Tony Doogan (Belle & Sebastian) and recorded in New York at Grammy winner Dave Fridmann’s studio (MGMT).
Leon of Athens: Aeroplane
Leon of Athens: Aeroplane Lyrics:
Modern love
is an exchange
Our young hearts
in close range
No light shines
in this age
Your love
is my cage
I better start,I better start running
even if I can’t escape
your love is like an aeroplane
going down then flying high
you take me for a ride
Modern love
is to calculate
Be the first to hit
or you fall in vain
No light shines
these dark days
Your love
is my cage
I better start,I better start running
even if I can’t escape
Your love is like an aeroplane
going down then flying high
you take me for a ride
Here I am
still breathing
in open fields I breath
I better start,I better start running
even if I can’t escape
Your love is like an aeroplane
going down then flying high
you take me for a ride
