A Friend In London

A Friend In London was formed in 2005 when four guys met at a boarding school in Vostrup, Denmark. From day one the hunt for powerful and catchy melodies was the main focus of the band. Through the past years the band has been touring Denmark with more than 100 shows refining the expression of their work. The music combines the simplicity of boyband pop with the complexity of British influenced indie rock backed by powerful choir arrangements.

In 2008 A Friend In London won the European final of the Bodog Million Dollar Battle of the Bands, with more than 40,000 bands from around the world participating. This event ignited a spark for the band in Canada and since 2009 there has been two successful tours in the state of Ontario, including shows at NXNE (North by NorthEast) 2009 and Canadian Music Week 2010 as well as a performance at Breakfast TV, no.1 morning show in Toronto.


2011 will be a defining year for A Friend In London. The band has confirmed a slot at the forthcoming Canadian Music Week launching another Canadian spring tour in conjunction with this performance. Alongside the expansive Canadian activity the preparations for the anticipated debut album have also been kicked off with album release set in 2011.

Lyrics of New Tomorrow

Come on girls come on boys
It's your future it's your choice
And your weapon is your voice
Let's make a new tomorrow
Today

Wake up slow down
Do nothing right now
Breathe in breathe out
Did we forget how
To live to dream
And what it all means
It's like we don’t care

Who's hot who's not
Who's got the right up-
Side down to night tomorrow
You're out of style - of time
You're back in the line
A race to nowhere

Come on boys come on girls
In this crazy crazy world
You’re the diamonds you’re the pearls
Let's make a new tomorrow

Come on girls come on boys
It's your future it's your choice
And your weapon is your voice
Let's make a new tomorrow
Today

Turn left turn right
Don't make up your mind
Your way to fame
Is all in vain
You get in the spot
Then you run out of luck
And you're going nowhere
We can change it all today

Come on boys come on girls
In this crazy crazy world
You’re the diamonds you’re the pearls
Let's make a new tomorrow

Come on girls come on boys
It's your future it's your choice
And your weapon is your voice
Let's make a new tomorrow
Today

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh - come on boys
Let's make a new tomorrow

Come on boys come on girls
In this crazy crazy world
You’re the diamonds you’re the pearls
Let's make a new tomorrow

Come on girls come on boys
It's your future it's your choice
And your weapon is your voice
Let's make a new tomorrow
Today
Réveille toi Ralentis
Ne fait rien maintenant
Inspire expire
Avons nous oublié comment
Vivre, rêver
Et tout ce que cela signifie
C´est comme si on ne se soucie pas

Qui est chaud qui ne l´est pas
Qui a le bon
à l´envers ce soir, demain
Tu es hors du temps, du style
Tu es au fond de la ligne
Une course vers nulle part

Allez les garcons allez les filles
Dans ce monde de fou fou
Vous êtes les diamants vous êtes les perles
Faisons un nouveau lendemain

Allez les filles allez les garçons
C´est votre future c´est votre choix
Et votre arme est votre voix
Faisons un nouveau lendemain
Aujourd´hui

Tourne à gauche tourne à droite
Ne te décide pas
Ton chemin pour être célèbre
Est totalement en vain
Tu es sous les projecteurs
Puis tu n´as pas de chance
Et tu ne vas nulle part
Nous pouvons changer tout ça aujourd´hui

Allez les garçons allez les filles
Dans ce monde de fou fou
Vous êtes les diamants vous êtes les perles
Faisons un nouveau lendemain

Allez les filles allez les garçons
C´est votre future c´est votre choix
Et votre arme est votre voix
Faisons un nouveau lendemain
Aujourd´hui
