about

’She Loves’ is the 3rd Single from the upcoming EP 'Womb of Life'.

Singer, cellist and composer Astrid Nora is back again with
Where Did Nora Go after a long hiatus dedicated to her premature twin girls. The new EP from Where Did Nora Go 'Womb Of Life' will be released on Celebration Records 22/11.

Astrid Nora sang and played the whole song live in one take – no cuts and no edits. She explains about the new single:
“‘She Loves’ is about that eternal, unimaginable force of love that arises when you become a mother (or a father I assume). It bursts any hitherto notion of boundaries and capacity. It is as if children make the flow of love just flood everything - not just to and from them, but in general. At least that's how it has been for me. I love more and I love deeper. Not just people close to me – the love extends to even strangers I meet on my way. It is one of the greatest gifts of parenthood I think.

Other than that I think the children who come to us come here to teach us something. They are still whole, unspoiled beings, and they remind us of this sacred, unconditional, defenseless love. ‘Armorless’ love. That and of oneness and connectedness. It is the most beautiful thing a human can experience.

The song is also a kind of pledge to my children that I will do anything I can to guard and protect that purity and sensitivity - embrace it and nurture the innocent for as long as possible.

And then it is about the deep mysterious bond - a bond I believe stretches even beyond this lifetime transcending life and death. Since I was a little girl the thought of reincarnation has felt very natural to me and my daughters fully confirm this belief. It is truly one of life’s mysteries.

Where the former single ‘I’m Still Here’ was about all the struggles of becoming a mom to premature twins and the fight for survival, this song is about all that came before and after – about what remains; this explosion of love that seems to grow deeper every day. I still marvel at this way of being that pulls you right into the present moment of pure, untainted existence.”

lyrics

Did you walk beside me

Was it you that whispered in my ear
“you do belong”

Was it you
that shook me from the dead 

Did you remind me

There’s no giving into
the dark despair

I will always see

I will always heed your sensitivity

Cause you love, you love 

You love, you love

In armorless ways

Through a vow
much more profound 

than I could even fathom 

Did you enter into this world

I will always see

I will always heed your sensibility

Cause you love, you love 

You love, you love

In armorless ways
