Lyrics

Tomorrow

His name is Jeremy

Working in I.T.

Never questions why

He has always been

An extra careful guy

Sensitive and shy

Risk assessment is his investment

In a life of no surprise

‘Til she walked into his life

 

She spontaneous indeed

Uncertainty’s her creed

She has always been

Neither black or white

Just a curious delight

She threw affection

In his direction

A collection of her smiles

 

And to his surprise

 

She’s like tomorrow

Oh so distant

She just wants to play

Like tomorrow

She is always

One day away
All the time she slips away

It’s close but yet so far

It’s time to follow her tomorrow

 

Oh oh time to follow her tomorrow

 

He fell for her too fast

We all thought it wouldn’t last

Cos good ol’ Jeremy

Likes his rigorous routine

Cos he only thinks today

But tomorrow is her way

So find a new direction

And you will be ok

 

She’s like tomorrow

Oh so distant

She just wants to play

Like tomorrow

She is always

One day away
All the time she slips away

It’s close but yet so far

It’s time to follow her tomorrow

 

Oh oh time to follow her tomorrow

 

She’s like tomorrow

Oh so distant

She just wants to play

Like tomorrow

She is always

One day away

One day away

One day away

And all the time she slips away

It’s close but yet so far

It’s time to follow her tomorrow

It’s time to follow her tomorrow

It’s time to follow her tomorrow

 

Gianluca’s Biography

Gianluca and his collection of smiles have warmed the hearts of many Eurovision enthusiasts in the past few months.  The young lad from Malta is a medical doctor by profession, and also one of seven siblings, who are all talented musicians and singers. Although fully committed to what he describes as his vocational calling, music has always served as a good break for the singing doctor, who has very adeptly found a balance between his daily ward rounds and his passion for music. Gianluca is the front man of a local band, whose dynamic performances and recent single releases have propelled it to the forefront of the island’s music scene. While funk and indie elements characterise the band’s distinctive sound, Gianluca draws on a wider variety of influences as a solo artist. He is mostly inspired by Michael Bublé’s brassy standards, John Mayer’s modern blues, the nu-folk style of Mumford and Sons and Noah and the Whale, while also being deeply captivated by Chris Tomlin’s contemporary Christian music.

Gianluca is a regular singer with his prayer group and has also spent time doing voluntary work among children in Turin, Cairo and Palermo, with the sisters of Mother Theresa. He started off his music career by playing the piano accordion, eventually shifting his focus to singing in various charity concerts around Malta, including the popular biannual Voices concerts and Rockestra, a yearly event organised by the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra and held under the Patronage of the President of Malta. It was through one of these charity events that songwriters Boris Cezek and Dean Muscat approached Gianluca with the intention of collaborating. Originally intended to be a radio hit, ‘Tomorrow’s’ feel-good factor combined with its simple yet meaningful lyrics, possessed all the necessary ingredients to take it to the Eurovision stage this year. Gianluca looks forward to broaden his experience through the Eurovision Song Contest as he feels it will give his career greater potential for growth and exposure, while allowing him to make further contacts with foreign music professionals. It is indeed an honour for Gianluca to be putting his ‘rigorous routine’ on hold for a while, as he represents his country in Malmö… definitely an opportunity not worth leaving till ‘tomorrow’!
