Lately I see clouds
of sorrow in your eyes
Some deep sadness you can never quite disguise
Now I'm scared to ask what it's leading to
But I'm more afraid of not asking you
Is there something
that you want to tell me
Is there something that I ought to know
Are we something that's still worth fighting for
Or should I simply let you go
Is there something I can do to reach you
Are we something more than history
I'll find some way to convince you to stay
If you just tell me honestly
Is there something left of you and me
You've got secrets
you've been keeping for too long
And I'm going crazy acting like there's nothing wrong
Lola Marsh(Hebrew: לולה
מארש) is an Israeli indie popband
from Tel Aviv. The
band was formed as a duo in 2013 by Gil Landau (guitars, keyboards) and Yael
Shoshana Cohen (vocals), and was quickly signed by the indie label Anova Music. The
group released their first EP, You're Mine, under Universal Records-Barclayin January 2016.
Gil
Landau and Yael Shoshana Cohen met in Tel Aviv through mutual friends. The
idea of the group was conceived at Landau's birthday party in February 2011,
when the band members began playing songs on Landau's father's old guitar.
Landau and Shoshana dated briefly while
forming the band, but went back to being bandmates.
Landau and Cohen wrote and performed songs
for 18 months before bringing on additional musicians. Mati Gilad (Bass), Rami
Osservaser (Guitar, Keyboards), Dekel Dvir (Drums and samplers) joined them
shortly after. The group started performing in local clubs. They were spotted
by the leading local indie label Anova Musicwho signed the band. The band's name was arrived at when the members
were calling out possible names for the group and the name Lola Marsh was
suggested and stuck.
The duo gained notoriety on the heels of
their 2014 performance at Primavera SoundFestival.
Lost and found
My mind, but only for a moment
All my crimes are safe, beneath my heart
And I try, oh, I try
To pretend that I am fine
Tell me why, oh, tell me why
I need you by my side
And suddenly I'm
bored, I'm dancing in the dark
Counting all the billboards, and the city lights
I keep all my affection in a paper cup
Oh I, oh I'm
Running after
bluebirds, show you what I've got
Save all my tomorrows from the lonely nights
Can you hear me crying? Baby I'm alright
Oh I, oh I
Rest your eyes
Better days are coming, I can feel it
All my lies are safe beside you now
And I try, oh, I try
To pretend that I'm fine
Tell me why, oh, tell me why
I need you by my side
And suddenly I'm
bored, I'm dancing in the dark
Counting all the billboards and the city lights
I keep all my affection in a paper cup
Oh I, oh I'm
Running after
bluebirds, show you what I've got
Save all my tomorrows from the lonely night
Can you hear me crying? Baby, I'm alright
Oh I, oh, I
You stayed only for a
moment
I said "Stay with me a while"
You faded like a pretty snowflake
That I was holding in my hand
You stayed only for a moment
I said "Stay with me a while"
You faded like a pretty snowflake
That I was holding in my hand
Lost and found
My mind, but only for a moment.
LIKE I CAN

He could be a sinner,
or a gentleman
He could be your preacher
When your soul is damned
He could be your lawyer on a witness stand
But he'll never love you like I can, can
He could be a
stranger, you gave a second glance
He could be a trophy, of a one night stand
He could have your humour, but I don't understand, 'cause
He'll never love you like I can, can, can
Why are you looking
down all the wrong roads?
When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul
There may be lovers who hold out their hands, but
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can
A chance encounter of
circumstance
Baby, he's a mantra, keeps your mind entranced
He could be a silence in this mayhem
But then again
He'll never love you like I can, can, can
Why are you looking
down all the wrong roads?
When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul
There may be lovers who hold out their hands, but
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
He'll never love you like I can, can, can
We both have demons,
that we can't stand
I love your demons, like devils can
If you're still seeking an honest man
Then stop deceiving, Lord, please
Why are you lookin'
down all the wrong roads?
When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul
There may be lovers who hold out their hands, but
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
He'll never love you like I can, can, can.
YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE

Barbara Joan "Barbra" Streisand (/ˈstraɪsænd/; born April 24, 1942) is
an American singer and actress. With a career spanning over six decades, she
has achieved success in multiple fields of entertainment, and is among the few
performers awarded an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony(EGOT).
Streisand
began her career by performing in nightclubs and Broadway theaters in the early
1960s. Following her guest appearances on various television
shows, she signed to Columbia Records,
insisting that she retain full artistic control, and accepting lower pay in
exchange, an arrangement that continued throughout her career, and released her
debut The Barbra
Streisand Album(1963), which won the Grammy Award
for Album of the Year. Throughout her recording
career, Streisand has topped the US Billboard 200chart with 11 albums—a record for a woman—including People(1964),
The Way We Were(1974), Guilty(1980),
and The Broadway Album(1985).
She also achieved five number-one singles on the US Billboard Hot 100—"The Way We
Were", "Evergreen",
"You Don't
Bring Me Flowers", "No More Tears
(Enough Is Enough)", and "Woman in Love".
The Essential Barbra Streisand (retitled The
Ultimate Collection in some European countries) is the fifth greatest hits
albumby American singer Barbra Streisand,
released on January 29, 2002, by Columbia Records.
The compilation
features 38 songs from Streisand's catalog, in addition to two previously
unreleased tracks (covers of "Someday My Prince Will Come" and
"You'll Never Walk Alone"). It
includes material from 26 of the singer's albums and was described as a
collection of, mainly, her popsongs. A
reissued version of the compilation was distributed by Columbia and Legacy Recordingsin 2008 and includes a bonus disk featuring nine additional songs
from Streisand's discography.
Critically,
the album was noted for being a comprehensive and complete view of her
discography, unlike her previous greatest hits releases. It
topped the charts in Ireland, Scotland, and the United Kingdom, and peaked at
number 15 on the Billboard 200in the United States. The Essential Barbra Streisand also reached
the top ten in several countries and was included on four year-end lists. The album has since been
certified Platinum in Australia, Europe, New Zealand, Spain, and the United
States, and multi-platinum in the United Kingdom.
