  • SPORTSMAN OF THE YEAR - A Suburban Philosophy (Book only)

    Sportsman Of The Year - A Suburban Philosophy is Jan Hellriegel's 4th studio album, with a unique twist: it is also a beautifully produced book with photos and 12 chapters based on the new songs. She describes Sportsman of the Year as a ‘musical in a book’. The book grew out of her album project when Jan realised the songs were taking a more philosophical, personal direction. She decided to share some stories in parallel with the music, each informed by the other. Includes access to high quality music files. Jan says Sportsman of the Year is about finally arriving at a place where she can look back at failures, disappointments and rejections with a sense of accomplishment and pride, knowing that without them she wouldn't be doing what she is today. It is about following your dreams, and never giving up.

lyrics

SO HAPPY

Some things are indescribable
Until you know just what you want to say
So just relax and remember
Everything is going right today

Everything is so good
Everything is going right
I never knew that I
Could feel this way
Oh so happy
Things are finally on my side
Feeling good
Oh so happy

It’s true, life can get so hard
You can feel like giving it all away
So just relax and remember
Everything is conspiring to go your way

Everything is so good
Everything is going right
I never knew that I
Could feel this way
Oh so happy
Things are finally on my side
Feeling good
Oh so happy

Everything is so good
Everything is going right

I never knew that I
Could feel this way
Oh so happy
Things are finally on my side
Feeling good
And so happy
