02: Jesus at My Frontdoor. (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson).

Jesus at My Frontdoor udforsker den fascinerende fortælling om at undvige mødet med den kristne Jesus, på trods af hans vedholdende tilstedeværelse lige "uden for døren".
For cirka 60 år siden, i en alder af 4-5 år gik jeg, som så mange andre børn på den tid, i søndagsskole. Det var vel et håb fra min mor, at jeg kunne tilegne mig de kristne værdier og vokse op som en god kristen. Desværre for hende og til alt held for mig, begyndte Beatles at rumstere i radioen, med "I Saw Her Standing There", og med det samme var min sjæl solgt til, ja, ikke til djævlen, men til den rytmiske musik.
Senere i livet er jeg flere gange blevet konfronteret med forskellige religioner og deres dogmer, men har indtil nu afvist alle deres tilnærmelser.

"Jesus is at My frontdoor
IWont let him in
He is trying to break down My walls
He is trying to heal My soul

Jesus is at My frontdoor
Im trying to look away
Wonder how ill get away from here
He just want Me to stay

Jesus is at My frontdoor
He is chasing Me around
Im not ready for his blessings
So please leave Me alone

Jesus is at My frontdoor
Trying to get in
Im not ready for his Angels and peace
I just want to live with My sins"

03: When My First Wife Left Me. (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson/John Lee Hooker).

When My First Wife Left Me er en fortolkning af et John Lee Hooker nummer med samme navn, som er indspillet i 1961.
When My First Wife Left Me handler om at blive miste sin første kærlighed for derefter at gå på landevejen og leve fra dag til dag igennem druk og spil.
Min egen historie har dog ikke været så dramatisk, men jeg har turneret som Live-musiker i over 30 år på de danske landeveje og spillet i enhver afkrog af landet, og oplevet mange af de ting, som tit følger med i det hårde turneliv.

"When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the road
When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the Highway
Ever since that day, people
My life haven´t been the same

I'm having bad luck,
having bad luck ever since she been gone
I'm having bad luck, bad luck, bad luck,
ever since my baby been gone
Ever since that day, people
My life haven´t been the same

I´ve been drinking and gambling
I´ve been drinking and gambling, boy
I´ve been drinking and gambling
I´ve been drinking and gambling, boy
Lord, my life haven´t been the same
Ever since I been gone.

When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the road
When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the Highway
Ever since that day, people
My life haven´t been the same

I´ve been drinking and gambling, boy
I´ve been drinking and gambling
I´ve been drinking and gambling,
boy my life haven´t been the same
Ever since I been gone.

When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the road
I'm having bad luck, bad luck, bad luck
since my baby been gone
Ever since that day
My life haven´t been the same
My life haven´t been the same
She left me"

04: Give Me The Water (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson).

Efter stort set at have lagt musikken på hylden i 2008, besluttede jeg mig for at få et almindeligt fast arbejde med pension i den sidste del af mit arbejdsliv. Det føltes også godt indtil 2013, hvor jeg blev opsagt på grund af dalende ordrer i virksomheden.
Der stod jeg så, uden min gamle identitet som musiker og med min nye identitet som arbejdsløs og tænkte på, hvad fremtiden mon nu kunne byde på. Det var en hård tid med løbende kontrol i arbejdsledigheds systemet, samt spredte og løse jobs hist og her. Jeg blev i denne periode inspireret til at skrive teksten til Give Me The Water, som handler om at være lige ved at miste håbet og endda sende sine bønner mod himlen i håb om, at der nok skal vise sig en løsning. 
Sangen handler også om tilgivelse, taknemmelighed og at være glad på trods af økonomiske vanskeligheder og en usikker fremtid, og om min taknemmelighed over, at jeg stadig har et godt helbred og mulighed for at dyrke motion, lave ny musik og være sammen med mine kære og de mennesker jeg holder mest af, hvilket giver mig stor glæde og inspiration.

"Give me the water
before I run dry.
Give me the water
before I run dry.
I´m searching for
the road to the sky.

Oh Lord, please help me,
I need you to know
My life is empty,
my heart is cold.
I´m searching for
the road to the sky.

Oh Lord, give me peace
before you leave me.
Please forgive me.
I didn´t see I was blind.
I’m searching for
the road to the sky.

Give me the water
before I run dry.
Give me the water
before I run dry.
I´m searching for
the road to the sky"

05: I Want to Come Home (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson).


 I Want to Come Home handler om, hvordan den mørke side af ens personlighed har taget kontrollen over ens drømme og ønsker og forhindrer dig i at være den person du allerhelst gerne vil være. Hvis man kæmper nok, kan man måske opnå at komme af med, eller i det mindste dæmpe den mørke side af sin karakter, for at komme frem til den mere lyse og autentiske side af ens personlighed.

"You never tell me that you love me
You never give me some joy
You never give me some loving
You never give me some hugs

You left me every morning,
returned late at night
You never loved me
You took all my pride

I want to come home

You took my children
you took my wife
You took all my money
You took my life

You stole my feelings
You stole my faith
You took my darlings'
you never seem to care
​
I want to come home

But now I´ll rise
No longer bound by chains
I'll find my strength
In the face of darkness

I´m coming home
I´m coming for you
I´m soon at home
So you better move on
How how how how"

02: Jesus at My Frontdoor. (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson).

"Jesus at My Front Door" explores the intriguing narrative of evading the encounter with the Christian Jesus, despite his persistent presence just "outside the door."

About 60 years ago, at the age of 4-5, I, like many other children of the time, attended Sunday school. It was probably my mother's hope that I could embrace Christian values and grow up as a good Christian. Unfortunately for her and fortunately for me, the Beatles started playing on the radio with "I Saw Her Standing There," and instantly my soul was sold to, well, not to the devil, but to rhythmic music.

Later in life, I have been confronted with various religions and their dogmas several times, but until now, I have rejected all of their approaches.

"Jesus is at My frontdoor
IWont let him in
He is trying to break down My walls
He is trying to heal My soul

Jesus is at My frontdoor
Im trying to look away
Wonder how ill get away from here
He just want Me to stay

Jesus is at My frontdoor
He is chasing Me around
Im not ready for his blessings
So please leave Me alone

Jesus is at My frontdoor
Trying to get in
Im not ready for his Angels and peace
I just want to live with My sins"

03: When My First Wife Left Me. (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson/John Lee Hooker).

"When My First Wife Left Me" is an interpretation of a John Lee Hooker song with the same name, recorded in 1961.

"When My First Wife Left Me" is about losing one's first love and then hitting the road, living day to day through drinking and gambling.

However, my own story hasn't been as dramatic, but I've toured as a live musician for over 30 years on the Danish roads and played in every corner of the country, experiencing many of the things that often come with the tough touring life.
​
"When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the road
When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the Highway
Ever since that day, people
My life haven´t been the same

I'm having bad luck,
having bad luck ever since she been gone
I'm having bad luck, bad luck, bad luck,
ever since my baby been gone
Ever since that day, people
My life haven´t been the same

I´ve been drinking and gambling
I´ve been drinking and gambling, boy
I´ve been drinking and gambling
I´ve been drinking and gambling, boy
Lord, my life haven´t been the same
Ever since I been gone.

When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the road
When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the Highway
Ever since that day, people
My life haven´t been the same

I´ve been drinking and gambling, boy
I´ve been drinking and gambling
I´ve been drinking and gambling,
boy my life haven´t been the same
Ever since I been gone.

When my first wife left me
You know, the woman that put me on the road
I'm having bad luck, bad luck, bad luck
since my baby been gone
Ever since that day
My life haven´t been the same
My life haven´t been the same
She left me"

04: Give Me The Water (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson).

After essentially putting music on hold in 2008, I decided to get a regular job with a pension for the later part of my working life. It felt good too, until 2013, when I was laid off due to declining orders in the company.

There I was, without my old identity as a musician, and with my new identity as unemployed, wondering what the future might hold. It was a tough time with ongoing monitoring in the unemployment system, as well as scattered and temporary jobs here and there. During this period, I was inspired to write the lyrics for "Give Me The Water," which is about being on the brink of losing hope and even sending prayers to the heavens, hoping that a solution will eventually present itself.

The song also touches on forgiveness, gratitude, and finding happiness despite financial difficulties and an uncertain future. It reflects my gratitude for still having good health and the opportunity to exercise, create new music, and be with my loved ones and the people I care about the most. These aspects bring me great joy and inspiration.
​
"Give me the water
before I run dry.
Give me the water
before I run dry.
I´m searching for
the road to the sky.

Oh Lord, please help me,
I need you to know
My life is empty,
my heart is cold.
I´m searching for
the road to the sky.

Oh Lord, give me peace
before you leave me.
Please forgive me.
I didn´t see I was blind.
I’m searching for
the road to the sky.

Give me the water
before I run dry.
Give me the water
before I run dry.
I´m searching for
the road to the sky"

05: I Want to Come Home (Music & Lyrics Robert Nilsson).


"I Want to Come Home" is about how the dark side of your personality has taken control of your dreams and desires, preventing you from being the person you most want to be. If you fight hard enough, you might be able to get rid of, or at least temper, the dark side of your personality, in order to reach your brighter and more authentic self.

"You never tell me that you love me
You never give me some joy
You never give me some loving
You never give me some hugs

You left me every morning,
returned late at night
You never loved me
You took all my pride

I want to come home

You took my children
you took my wife
You took all my money
You took my life

You stole my feelings
You stole my faith
You took my darlings'
you never seem to care
​
I want to come home

But now I´ll rise
No longer bound by chains
I'll find my strength
In the face of darkness

I´m coming home
I´m coming for you
I´m soon at home
So you better move on
How how how how"
