Non esistono vie di mezzo, questa volta no! Dopo i primi accordi di LP – Lost On You, fatti di carezze acustiche, e l'ipnotica cassa in quattro, l'orecchio non può rimanere indifferente: sono passati pochi secondi e la voce di LP (al secolo Laura Pergolizzi) vi ha già agganciato come un amo.

Non può esserci rifiuto dopo il morso di LP, il veleno benefico della sua voce rauca è già in circolo, in voi. Esiste solo una tipologia di ascoltatore immune al mantra di LP – Lost On You: chi deve ancora ascoltarla. 

Accompagnata dal suo inseparabile ukulele (prodotto appositamente per lei dalla Martin Guitar, caso unico per un'artista femminile) in Lost On You LP confessa a se stessa e a noi i veri desideri di una vita. 

"Perdersi" è facile, così come vagare in una nuvola di fumo (elemento ricorrente nel videoclip della canzone), così come ascoltare Lost On You.

LP è nata a Huntington, Long Island (ovvero New York), ma se ve lo stavate chiedendo sì, l'origine italiana è nelle vene da parte di madre napoletana e padre per metà siciliano e metà irlandese.

Classe 1981, LP non ha tempo per le cazzate con cui oggi si (s)vende la musica e gioca quindi a carte scoperte.

Non è un'artista di primo pelo e non vuole abbassare l'età per accattivarsi i like dei teenager. La gavetta l'ha già fatta e i suoi successi li ha fin'ora elargiti a nomi celebri come Rihanna, Rita Ora, Ella Henderson, Cher, Leona Lewis, e Christina Aguilera. Ha classe da vendere.

Omosessuale dichiarata (vedere il videoclip di Lost On You fino all'ultimo frame per credere) LP è diretta e senza filtri come la sua musica. Non ha nulla da nascondere.
L'intimità del folk, l'essenzialità del songwriting, l'asprezza di un'anima rock inespressa eppure latente: questi i punti cardinali di LP. 
Perdetevi.

Lyrics:

Hold on, I know you're scared
But you're so close to heaven
Eyes shut tight
Just pretend you're like a feather

Flew down the clouds together
But don't look down, not ever
Don't ask why
Just look out unto forever

All this time
You're just tryin' not to lose it
You can always learn to fly
You never do until you do it

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Take a chance we can dance up in mid-air
Feel so good, I could die, but I don't care
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

You never know...

We're just a step from fearless
Reach out for me my dearest
Don't you cry
You don't know, you're almost near it

All this time
You're just tryin' not to lose it
You can always learn to fly
You never do until you do it

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Take a chance we can last up in mid-air
Feel so good, I could die, but I don't care
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

You never know
You never know

You never know
You never know

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Take a chance we can dance up in mid-air
Feel so good, I could die, but I don't care
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

You never know
You never know

You never know
You never know

Hold on, I know you're scared
But you're so close to heaven
Eyes shut tight
Just pretend you're like a feather

Flew down the clouds together
But don't look down, not ever
Don't ask why
Just look out onto forever

All this time
You're just tryin' not to lose it
You can always learn to fly
You never do until you do it

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Take a chance we can dance up in mid-air
Feel so good, I could die, but I don't care
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

You never know

We're just a step from fearless
Reach out for me my dearest
Don't you cry
You don't know, you're almost near it

All this time
You're just tryin' not to lose it
You can always learn to fly
You never do until you do it

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Take a chance we can last up in mid-air
Feel so good, I could die, but I don't care
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

You never know
You never know

You never know
You never know

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Take a chance we can dance up in mid-air
Feel so good, I could die, but I don't care
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

Up high in the middle of nowhere
Don't know but you know when you get there
Walk slow and low on a tightrope
Hope it lasts but you know, you never know

You never know
You never know

You never know
You never know

[ИринаАлакаева-гм]

В этой женщине такое мужское начало, что не во всяком мужике есть. Какая харизма! Завораживает её талант! Браво!!!👏👏👏

[Psyhologiya_deneg_]

Эту песню могу слушать бесконечно! Посмотрела клип и перевод этой песни. Но даже не зная ее слов я, слушая ее, всегда, вспоминаю о своих желаниях, настоящей своей жизни, себе настоящей. И здесь в этих звуках, я та, которая ЕСТЬ! Спасибо LP!
