This week’s cover – ‘New Until it’s Old’ by Passenger, otherwise known as Michael David Rosenberg. This song is featured on his 2022 album ‘Birds that flew and Ships that Sailed’. However, I based this cover on a fingerstyle live version he made in 2019 which I prefer. It is one of the softest songs on the album and one of my favourites. He has released 14 albums and is perhaps one of the most well-known acoustic artists of the 21st century. Passenger was originally the name of the band he fronted. They broke up in 2009 and Rosenberg started busking to pursue a solo career. You might have heard his song ‘Let Her Go’; it became an internet meme. ‘New Until it’s Old’ seems to be about the transient nature of time and I think the lyrics (and melody) are really beautiful. I hope you enjoyed my cover as much as I enjoyed playing it.

Lyrics:
Well, the winter brings the snow
Spring before you know
Summer comes and goes
Like a dream that you can't hold

As you gaze upon the skies
See the clouds passing by
They know as well as you and I
Everything's new until it's old

Perhaps I'd be happy if time stood still
I know I won't for it never will
Sure as the evening geese take flight
Silver coins in a wishing well
Final chimes of a mission bell
And it is ringing into the night

Well, the morning brings the sun
The rain will surely come
And the afternoon will run
Into setting suns of pink and blue

As you gaze upon the moon
Be it crescent, full, or new
It knows as well as me and you
Everything's new until it's old

Perhaps I'd be happy if time stood still
I know I won't for it never will
Sure as the evening geese take flight
Silver coins in a wishing well
Final chimes of a mission bell
And it is ringing into the night

Well, I know I'd be happy if time stood still
But I won't for it never will
Sure as the evening geese take flight
Silver coins in a wishing well
Final chimes of a mission bell
And it is ringing into the night

Thank you so much for watching my video and I hope you have a great day!
