This song was the beginning for our project. I had written Outlanders in 2010 and asked Torsten to work on it, because the song had a different feel compared to my other songs.
I got my inspiration from Alan Parson’s songs “Return to Tunguska” and “L’Arc en Ciel” where David Gilmour plays the guitar. I wanted to create something similar, but to add my vocals to it. My own collaboration with Schiller for the song “Tired of Being Alone” planted the seed and I felt there was something else out there for me to try out.
I thought of using my voice as an instrument and why not, some spoken texts could fit into that relaxed mood.
Throughout many years I had also been inspired by author Paulo Coelho’s books, so I contacted Paulo to ask permission to use some of his texts for the song. I was willing to speak about following your dreams and who could do that better than Paulo.
When I wrote the song, at that time, I was still living in Buenos Aires where I had made friends with Argentinean guitarist Walter Giardino. I asked him to play on it and he did an amazing job.
When I had the song ready, with Torsten living in Antigua, Walter in Spain, Paulo in Switzerland and myself in Argentina, the name came as a sign and Outlanders the song, and therefore the project and concept was born.
CREATION OF THE VISUALIZER
I was visiting Antigua quite often at the time when we filmed this first visualizer for the project. It was way back in 2012 and I was pregnant. We decided to shoot images in The Outlook in English Harbour and on the beach nearby the place where I was staying and, in the ruins, just next to it. In this visualizer you can see a younger me reading Paulo Coelho’s inspiring quotes and feel the majesty of the ocean that surrounds the island of Antigua.
LYRICS
Taistella unelmiensa puolesta
Maine, kunnia on katoavaista
Eikä se ole elämämme mitta
Tärkeintä on päättää lähteä seuraamaan omaa elämäntietään
Uskoa omiin haavekuvitelmiinsa
ja taistella unelmiensa puolesta
Me kaikki olemme oman elämämme päähenkilöitä
Ja usein lähtemättömimmät jäljet jättävät tuntemattomat sankarit
Jokainen päivä on erilainen
Joka aamuun kätkeytyy oma ihmeensä, maaginen hetki
jona vanhat maailmankaikkeudet tuhoutuvat ja uusia tähtiä syntyy
Salaisuus on nykyhetkessä
Jos tarkkailet nykyisyyttä, voit tehdä sen paremmaksi
ja jos teet sen paremmaksi kaikki myöhempikin on paremmin
Jokainen päivä on jo itsessään ikuisuus
