Walk Alone 03:34
People come into your life for a reason, a moment, a year, a lifetime, who knows. but with everyone you meet a lesson will be learned but not everyone’s meant to stay and walk beside you. sometimes you’ve gotta walk alone. Though I know it’s true, still I put all my hopes and dreams into you. Cos you came to my life and you knocked down all the walls in front of me. Oh now teacher, I’m sorry to stand, but you don’t even know the answer in your hand. Oh, I’ll go, but you’ll never know. That you made me the best addition I could ever be and you’ll never know Cos you showed me to just relax and trust in what I see and how love can be. But you taught you taught by default. A diligent heart afraid of whats unknown. All of that freedom, all of that love. We built it up high and now its burnt/torn to the ground. And though I’m here calling, I’m calling out your name, and though I’m calling I know things can’t stay the same. And though I know fairytales are what you read at night and though I know I can’t change the hands of time. Still I thought, I would have sung with you. Just one last time. People come into your life for a reason, but not everyones meant to stay and walk beside you. sometimes you’ve gotta walk alone.

about

Emilie Lierre’s low-toned, soulful, singing voice has a truly commanding presence. Backed up by the alluring chimes of her trustee Ukulele, the charisma that exudes from Emilie’s performances is truly electrifying!

A broken down relationship and a yearning to wander the earth lead Emilie Lierre to Australia where she busked to make a living and explored the southern hemisphere for 2 years. Appearances on ABC and Triple R radio in Melbourne gave her the confidence to pursue her musical dream and record an 8 track album on her return (The Wanderer, released October 2022).

Walk Alone is the 2nd single from the album, due out on 20th Jan 2023. The opening line "People come into your life for a reason, a moment, a year, a lifetime, who knows." sets the scene for this hauntingly beautiful tale about self reflection, standing on your own 2 feet, and finding the courage to walk alone.

The song was chosen as the 2nd single from the album by popular demand with several independent radio stations, bloggers, and fans picking it out as a favourite. Walk Alone even reached the number 1 spot on a Spanish indie radio chart recently!

A nomad by nature, born in Manchester, brought up in Portsmouth, but comfortable anywhere, Emilie Lierre’s music takes the listener on a journey of their own through her thoughts on life, love, and the world around us.

Until a chance meeting with Lights And Lines Label Manager, Mike Five, earlier this year songs from The Wanderer had only ever been heard live or on the streets. And whilst a ‘full band’ album is in the works, our introduction to Emilie Lierre is a purely acoustic album featuring nothing but a lightly strummed Ukulele and Emilie’s trademark deep soulful singing voice. Each song is recorded in just one take, stripped back to the way it was originally intended.


This is an honest recording in every sense, portraying the message that Emilie’s music is made with purpose rather than frivolity or exuberance. And the results are beautiful!
