SILENT SKIES - Leaving (Official Video) | Napalm Records

Order 'Nectar' here: smarturl.it/Si...
The intense second single “Leaving” combines gloomy ambient and infectious pop influences, all topped by Englund's outstanding vocal interpretation, that embodies fragility and strength at the same time and creates a setting where the meaning of time and space does not matter any longer. Blended with the sensitive atmosphere of renowned pianist Vikram Shankar, the composition creates a sonic universe in which one only wants to dive deep into and get lost forever.
SILENT SKIES on “Leaving”:
“And now for something rather different: we present our second single from Nectar, the dark and brooding 'Leaving'. Our most intense and powerful song to date is paired with a stunning video by the ever-talented Patric Ullaeus, who helped set our most fiery track yet to an appropriate visual. 'Leaving' is a song about closure, moving on and finding a new peace - we hope that you find this song as satisfying to listen to as we felt making it.”

[@davidbailey8133]

Ya , interesting 🤔 pretty cool. Not used to hearing this from Tom in Evergrey, my fave progressive band currently. Love keyboards at times, huge Fan of Jon & Chris Olivia of Savatage. I think Tom is talented guitarist & vocalist , who reminds me of both Jon Olivia & Dave Meneketti of Y & T 🎸 Thanks for the timeless Tunes .

[@Lukas1978p]

Beautiful Tom

[@angi9142]

Tom, my favorite singer, and Vikram's fingers never cease to amaze me, what subtle pulsations as well as intense and when the cello enters you have already entered heaven. Superb, thank you very much.

[@VikramShankarMusic]

Thanks so much!!

[@TomEnglundMusic]

That's just lovely! Thank you!

[@washburnwolf]

I'm posting the lyrics here - I hope it's okay with everyone involved. Otherwise just erase the comment :)
If you’ve heard the echos from the deepest hollow
and tasted the salt of every sorrow
and you stood with your feet in the darkest soil Needing life to be unspoiled
I’m leaving
Leaving 3x
(Leaving)
I’ve erased everything that got under my skin
One step closer in my inner search for wins
If you saw the light leave like I did
You would also feel like to leave
I’m leaving
Leaving 3x
(instrumental)
I’m leaving
Leaving 3x
I’m leaving
Leaving 3x

[@VikramShankarMusic]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@TomEnglundMusic]

[@VikramShankarMusic]

Thank you so much!

[@TomEnglundMusic]

That’s awesome!

[@patrickcardoso6566]

Dark, deep, it produces a strange feeling at first, but it is coated with hope and mystery, a song with a simple melody, but that expresses much more than a simple song, expresses a peace and hope in a new cycle. Evergrey can do a version, which is sure to be amazing. Congratulations to all.
For me it's one of the best songs of 2022.
Tom, I'm looking forward to hear it in person here in Brazil. a hug from a big brazilian fan.

[@VikramShankarMusic]

Thanks so much!

[@TomEnglundMusic]

Obrigado ! Would LOVE to play this with Silent Skies in Brazil!
