VanderLinde - Locked Down (Official music Video)
https://youtu.be/xDc2fhs5d_k
VANDERLINDE nimmt dich mit auf eine musik-stilistische Reise von den 80ern (z.B.: Crowded House), den 70ern (Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young), zurück bis in die "The Beatles 60er", um dich dann wieder in die Gegenwart von John Mayor oder Jason Mraz zu bringen. Alles unverwechselbar: VANDERLINDE. Produziert von Erwin Musper (producer, recording/mixing engineer for Van Halen, David Bowie, Mick Jagger, Elton John, Scorpions, Chicago, Metallica)
Vanderlinde tourten in Deutschland u.a. mit Bobby Kimball, Fish und Doc Holliday und spielten einige Festivals und überzeugten bei der CLASSIC ROCKNACHT mit JETHRO TULL BY IAN ANDERSON, FISH & RIVERSIDE (2019 KUNST!RASEN Bonn).
Durch diese zahlreichen Shows und ihre ersten sechs Alben (+ best of 2CD und Charity live CD), die von der deutschen Fachpresse und jeder Menge Radio Sendern supportet wurden, konnten sich Vanderlinde eine solide Fanbase erspielen. Arjan Vanderlinde, der Namensgeber, Bassist, Gitarrist und Sänger ist auch der Songschreiber. Er umgibt sich mit exzellenten Musikern die seine Songs zum Leben erwecken, im Studio und auf der Bühne. Wietze Koning (Gitarre), Bart Schwertmann (Gitarre und Gesang) und Fokke de Jong (Schlagzeug).

Lyrics:
The whole world is on hold. Everybody is freaking out.
Some people are scared to lose their health and die.
Other people are scared to lose their wealth and die
Everybody has an opinion about how to survive this nightmare.
Sounds like there are no winners in this cataclysmic event.
But…. did you see the blue sky, do you hear the birds ?
Have you seen the crystal clear water of once polluted rivers ?
There is a winner and it is not the economy or the stock market.
When humans are stopped in their tracks, the earth comes alive.
It repairs itself from the abuse it suffered from us. Within months.
A lesson to be learned. I hope that everyone gets the memo.
The earth does not need us. We need the earth. Crystal clear.
Our earth is the inspiration for this song.
LOCKED DOWN.
Will we go down
In a rage of fire
It will be the end of all
A distant cry and no more love
Or we stand still
And listen to the birds
We forgot how they could sing
Without fancy words
The joy they bring
Look around
How peaceful it can be
When the world is locked down
Hear the sound
That was there before you and me
Ain’t you astound ?
We are all as one, connected
Though we lost the common thread
And this is not what we expected
But we deserve to lose what we once had
Will we survive
And change our way
Will there be life
For another day ?
I don’t know what to say
See the world will suffer badly
From the virus that WE are
We lived our stupid lives so madly
Went way too far
Just look around
How peaceful it can be
When the world is locked down
Hear the sound
That was there before you and me
When will we turn around ?
There’s nowhere we will survive
Unless we change our way
Will there be life
For another day ?
It’s a losing game we play
Just look around
How peaceful it can be
When the world is locked down
Hear the sound
That was there before you and me
When will we turn around ?
We all are part
of one big family
Let’s start living like one
And make a start
To be kind and to be free
Let’s consider it done
And the world we’re in
Needs to be reconciled
Let the kindness win
No more motherless child
