    Heppeneert. Een kerk, een café en een kapel. Meer is het niet. Harold K vond er rust, inspiratie en vriendschap. In een oude boerderij aan de Duivelsbrugweg werkte hij twee meivakanties lang aan dit nieuwe album. Evert Aalten nam alles op en produceerde de plaat. Mathijn den Duijf (Kytopia) mixte wederom deze cd nadat hij ook voorganger De Laatste Pionier van een zo karakteristieke sound voorzag. Het artwork is van Anne Smeets.

about

Recorded 3th en 4th of may 2013 in Heppeneert. Heppeneert is a place of pelgrimage in Belgium, very near to the Dutch place where I grow up. It's quite known in the region as a place where you can be silent, pray and burn candles for loved ones. On nice days the place is flooded by bikers and hikers.

lyrics

Sung in 'Limburgs'; translated to English by Jan Willem Reitsma:


Heppeneert
It’s just across the border, in Belgium
It’s over the bridge, past the canal
On my bike to Heppeneert
It rains, but I don’t care
Against the wind
I’ll get there in the end

Chorus:
I don’t believe that I believe
But where is God now that the Devil
Shows himself so often these days
Because I need to start somewhere
I want to go to Heppeneert

Heppeneert
It is a pub, a church and chapel
Lies on the Maas, along a road
That I recall from old times
You go up the stream there, up the dream
Once more you climb the dike
And I know I’m almost there now
Because I need to start somewhere
I want to go to Heppeneert

Chorus

Santiago de Compostela
I’m in Heppeneert now
And I feel welcome here
She prays for her football team
And he prays for his mum
Who’s undergoing chemo
Because I need to start somewhere
I want to go to Heppeneert
