Emily King sang 'Distance' off her record 'The Switch' in the Manhattan apartment where she recorded the record. Follow Night Owl on Facebook: nprNightOwl
Something that really stands out to me is that, in her vocal inflection and body movements, she really understands and feels the lyrics she's singing. This is something that we find in great singers such as Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughn and Aretha Franklin.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE EMILY KING!!! She's one of the DOPEST ARTISTS I've seen in YEARS! She does it ALL! I haven't heard a single song I didn't like or love!
Hey love, time to get up I think you've been sleeping too long My day started when you were still yawning One room just ain't enough When it's two folks trying to get along But it's hard to leave you alone Oh, love is always better When we take time to get back to who we are When we are apart Distance makes the heart grow Even when I'm lonely Happy knowing that your love is never far When we are apart Distance makes the It makes the leaves on the trees fall Makes the hours in the day long Makes me want to clear my head Find a little café and write the words to a song And I know that I'm still free Be anywhere that I wanna be Maybe get dressed up Wear something real pretty that you ain't never seen Oh, love is always better When we take time to get back to who we are When we are apart Distance makes the... grow Even when I'm lonely Happy knowing that your love is never far When we are apart Distance makes the Oh-oh When you love, it makes a heart When you trust, it makes a heart When you call, it makes a heart We're alone, we're apart In the middle of a fight Walk away to make it right Where we go, we're never far In the light or in the dark On a plane up in the stars In a movie or at the bar Home alone or out to tea Look to your heart and think of me I wanna love you, don't want to try To change the pace of your life We get together, we make it good Get together, ooh (distance makes the) Hey love, time to get up I think you've been sleeping too long My day started when you were still yawning
I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M JUST FINDING THIS NOW. DISTANCE WAS MY MOST LISTENED TO SONG OF 2018. AND I FOUND IT HALFWAY THROUGH THE YEAR. GOD THIS SONG MEANS A LOT TO ME
WAITING for you to become famous, but also super selfish and want to keep this magic to myself. Love you so much Emily. You are forever appreciated by me, can't til I can say "I told you so" one day when you are delcared a music legend
