04:16
When you sing, you have to know

4294
你必須要知道，
唱歌是發自內心，

如果你只是想別人留下好印象，
04:42
or to get the big applause at the end,

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Teitur - Singer-songwriterWhether they’re sung in in English or his native Faroese, Teitur laces his deceptively innocent songs with often stinging hooks.
Why you should listen
Teitur crafts songs with unexpected lyrical twists portraying everything from awkward love affairs to lost weekends. Although he’s written hits for singers like Seal and Corinne Bailey Rae, the best interpreter for Teitur’s songs is himself: his half-dozen solo albums have won him accolades from the Danish Royal family, the Guardian and fans around the world.
His album Story Music (recorded in a former ice factory) features contributions from legendary Beach Boys arranger Van Dyke Parks and 78 musicians gathered from his native Faroe Islands.
