Tijdens mijn workout in de fitness komt regelmatig het lied Rather Be voorbij en inmiddels heeft het zich ontwikkeld tot een echte oorwurm, zo’n lied dat ik dan de hele dag in mijn hoofd meedraag. Het nummer was een grote hit in 2014 en wordt gespeeld door de Engelse electronische groep Clean Bandit, versterkt door zangeres Jess Glynne. Lekkere muziek!

Rather Be
We’re a thousand miles from comfort.
We have traveled land and sea.
But as long as you are with me,
there’s no place I’d rather be.
I would wait forever,
exalted in the scene.
As long as I am with you,
my heart continues to beat.

With every step we take,
Kyoto to The Bay,
strolling so casually.
We’re different and the same,
gave you another name,
switch up the batteries.

If you gave me a chance I would take it.
It’s a shot in the dark but I’ll make it.
Know with all of your heart, you can’t shame me.
When I am with you, there’s no place I’d rather be.
No place I’d rather be

We staked out on a mission,
to find our inner peace.
And make it everlasting,
so nothing’s incomplete.
It’s easy being with you,
sacred simplicity.
As long as we’re together,
there’s no place I’d rather be.

With every step we take, Kyoto to The Bay,
strolling so casually.
We’re different and the same, gave you another name,
switch up the batteries.

If you gave me a chance I would take it.
It’s a shot in the dark but I’ll make it.
Know with all of your heart, you can’t shame me.
When I am with you, there’s no place I’d rather be.
No place I’d rather be.

When I am with you, there’s no place I’d rather be.
