Upbeat drums and guitars cheerfully march through a landscape of dreamy strings and a fleeting flute. Liefde is lang is the colorful and exuberant new single from De Toegift, which starkly contrasts its sober predecessor, Odysseus. Frontman Maxim Ventulé compassionately takes the listener's hand in liefde is lang, and with his band, poetically sings about the search for what love can be when fully surrendered to it.
The cover art is a work born from a collaboration between visual artist Marijn van Kreij and Maxim Ventulé. Together, they created a series of collages and drawings that, in their own way, try to capture the renewed sound world of De Toegift.
