about

כמו כל מיני שיחות שהיו לנו, גאונים נעלמים... בהתחלה נמנעתי מלהלחין את השיר הזה, עברתי על כל השירים בספר וידעתי שאני חייבת להלחין את רית'מיקל אדיקשן אבל מה יהיה השיר השני? שאר השירים שהלחנתי בראש היו חייבים להיות בעיבוד סטנדרטי במובנים שלי ורק גלורי דרש משהוא יותר גלאם ואת כל העומס הרגשי של הרמוניות.
לכבוד זה הגיע אליי הפסנתר החשמלי של יונתן כל הדרך מתל אביב לברלין.
את הבית השני הוספתי למשקל שיונתן יצר בבית הראשון, וככה, כרגיל עם הפרויקט הזה זכיתי שוב לדבר עם יונתן על החיים והשקפת העולם שלנו ולהלחין איתו, זכות שאינה קלה לפעמים אבל תמיד משאירה טעם של עוד.

lyrics

Risk it all, to win nothing.
Risk yourself, to become something.
Reach out your hand,
And grab that golden crown.
But there is a price to pay,
You are going down

G – L – O – R – Y
You need to give blood to drink gold,
G – L – O – R – Y
You need to give it to be sold,
G – L – O – R – Y
If you don’t give they won’t take,
G – L – O – R – Y
And then they will say you were a fake!

Risk it all to form something
Risk yourself to become your dream
Reach out your mind,
And leap out of your hole
The road you pave
might be your final goal

G – L – O – R – Y
You need to give blood to drink gold,
G – L – O – R – Y
You need to give it to be sold,
G – L – O – R – Y
If you don’t give they won’t take,
G – L – O – R – Y
And then they will say you were a fake!

Let us rise and lift a toast to those who tried,
Who thought and fought,
Who dreamed and tried again.
