about
My Whole Heart was recorded & produced in complete isolation during the COVID-19 lockdown in Ireland in April 2020 by 16 Irish artists including Tolü Makay, God Knows (Rusangano Family) & The Isolation Choir with Wyvern Lingo, Faye O’Rourke (Soda Blonde), Jess Kav (BARQ/The Waterboys), Gemma Dunleavy, James Smith (Gypsies On The Autobahn), Danny Groenland (Danny G and the Major 7ths), and more.
It's an uplifting song that encourages people to live without regret and be their authentic selves. Zaska explains further, “The Coronavirus has reminded us that life is fragile. All those plans that you wanted to ‘do someday’ can disappear in an instant, so seize the day and live life to its fullest now. Even in the face of a pandemic you can find joy and take steps to build the life you want.”
lyrics
My whole heart
My whole heart
Let’s just say what we’re really feeling
Listen
Our time
Is short
Live for
Today with no apologies
This world is ending, times are crazy
I’m isolated in my home
Everybody running for safety
Scared every time I check my phone
Anxiety heavy on my mind
A brighter day I hope and pray
Think we should take it as a sign,
Life is fragile, live for today
Forget everybody else, who you wanna be?
Take down every barricade, what’s your fantasy?
All the joy you keep away, let it all inside
When answers are out of sight,
I heard somebody say
My whole heart
My whole heart
Let’s just say what we’re really feeling
Listen
Our time
Is short
Live for
Today with no apologies
My whole heart
My whole heart
Let’s just say what we’re really feeling
Listen
Our time
Is short
Live for
Today with no apologies
No Apologies, no amount of peace can ever peace back the families been hit by this beast
No COVID I find it hard to breathe, Just to let you know that the nation grieves
If you are on the front line you are legendary, to all those working those for the HSE
I stand with ye, wash my hands and stayed home for ye, that’s hard for G
I miss the back roads stopping near Killkee, Eating at Fanny O’Dea’s
At some point, I put a hammer through the clocks in my gaff I was trying to kill time
Here’s the company line, you only make it when you leave, that’s some of us
I’ve been tryna tell you there’s more of us, sure look here I’m still here
On my 6th year, not even in 6th Gear
No more questions asked, now sing that again
Baby take back the control of your destiny
To live it is our own responsibility
Be the change you want to see, let go of your pride
When answers are out of sight
I heard somebody say
My whole heart
My whole heart
Let’s just say what we’re really feeling
Listen
Our time
Is short
Live for
Today with no apologies
My whole heart
My whole heart
Let’s just say what we’re really feeling
Listen
Our time
Is short
Live for
Today with no apologies
