𝐄 𝐫 𝐢 𝐤 𝐚 (Poetic English Version)

Description

Hey guys!

So disclaimer: This song is not politically affiliated, but I will always unequivocally and unabashedly advocate for free expression and freedom of speech.

With that out of the way, I am very excited to have finally done an English cover of Erika Lied - perhaps one of my favorite songs growing up and one of the most controversial.

I took a lot of general liberties with the lyrics this time as I found trying to do justice to the original a bit too hard. Usually it's my philosophy to keep translated lyrics as true to the original as I can, but in this case I had to bend it a bit and I'm generally happy with the result.

All credit for the music goes to: Forte Republic who graciously allowed me us it. The original for that can be found here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTutsgbyll0

And also for Sara Winters at Gettys Images who took the photo used in this video. I don't know if you'll ever read this Sara, but I owe you a huge thanks!
