    "Lightcap nimmt uns mit auf seine Reisen und man spürt wirklich in jedem Moment des Albums, wie wichtig ihm das Thema ist und wie gern er Bilder in unseren Köpfen zum Leben erwecken möchte. Das gelingt ihm und so fühlen wir uns sehr wohl in seinen melancholischen Folk-Klängen." Soundkartell Review

    Down in Portugal ist die zweite LP von Lightcap (2018 erschien Be True To Your Heart (LP); 2016 Companion(EP)).

    Das Album wurde in fünf Studios (Frankfurt a.M., Den Haag, Weimar, Naumburg, Halle) mit Musikern aus sechs Ländern (Spanien, Niederlande, Deutschland, Rumänien, Litauen, Südkorea) aufgenommen.

about

The album opener starts the journey down to Portugal searching for dreams, cops, crooners, nobles ladies, cats, spies and water cups.

lyrics

Ride on that midnight special
The train is going south
The noble lady booked an extra seat for her cat
So you can’t sit down

She makes your dreams run wild

The moon is sending pale light
The curtain‘s red and thick
A spy is in the darkness and
He knows what you’ve been doing every bit

He makes your dreams run wild

But we don’t care about tomorrow
We only care about tonight
As long as our dreams run wild

Shake up your heavy heart
Dance some tango with me darling
The crooner‘s voice is touching my emotions
In a way that makes mе jive

He makes my drеams run wild

The cops don’t care about tomorrow
They only care about tonight
Oh I’m longing for your kisses
As I suppose you long for mine
I want my dreams to run run wild

I harvest my emotions
Put them on a tray
Drink a glass of water
To refill what I’ve been sweating out today

To make my dreams run wild

I don’t care about tomorrow
I only want to be alive
I don’t wanna be persuaded
Or taken onto some dark side
As long as my dreams run wild

I don’t wanna be no p’liceman
Nor some ordinary bride
Yes I wanna be an actress
With her wit and beauty shining bright

Who makes my dreams run wild
