After a couple of her own quite hefty rock songs, the Austrian-born rock singer ANTONJA releases a classic, which she re-recorded with her band in the studio. This time she strikes somewhat calmer tones.
In her version of "Twist in my Sobriety" ANTONJA has made the song completely her own and given it a chilling modern soft rock character, which sounds very relaxed and coherent with "clean" electric guitars and despite additional "crunchy" distorted guitars. The musical picture is additionally painted with the deep sounding warm sound of her vocals and the dominating orchestral cello sounds.Singer ANTONJA can be found in many of the messages from this song lyrics.
The original from 1988 was written by British singer Tanita Tikaram.
The lyrics leave a lot of room for imagination and own interpretations. But basically everything revolves around the meaning of life and how to master it. The text encourages people to try something new and make journeys to solve their problems and say goodbye to destructive patterns. It also says that you should accept the opinions of others and respect them, but you should also make your own decisions and find your own way. Also describes the restlessness from younger years, too much thinking, confused thoughts, but also the confusion of feelings after seeing through "rose-colored glasses".
In the end, the song lyrics express that you should stay true to yourself and keep control over your own life.
Twist in my Sobriety by ANTONJA will be available on all major music portals worldwide on 04/14/2023.

Inspired by these lyrics in the song, singer Antonja addresses domestic violence in her music video and wants to make her contribution to raise awareness to combat these acts.
Stop Domestic Violence! 30% of all women worldwide have suffered physical or sexual violence within a relationship. 81,000 women and girls were killed worldwide in 2020. Above all, their own homes were often not a safe place: More than half of them were murdered by close relatives. Since 1999, November 25 has been observed as the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Statistics show that 12% to 15% of women in Europe are victims of domestic violence every day.
It is one of the most widespread human rights violations worldwide and must be fought. Unfortunately, the number of unreported cases is still too high.
