Our interpretation of the famous Dutch song "Laat me" by Ramses Shaffy. The song is about a guy who pursues his own path, regardless of what others say.

Ramses Shaffy was a deeply-respected and extremely genuine singer and personality here in the Netherlands.

"I know the bars and cathedrals, all the way from Amsterdam to Maastricht. I want to be around for a long, long time. But let me remain just who I am"

We based the arrangement on one of the BIAB acoustic guitar Realtracks. Then we added the String Quartet RT and the Eddy Dunlap Pedal Steel RT for the solo.

You may not understand one single word of the Dutch lyrics... Still, we hope you will catch the emotion.
