'Allie Sherlock'

Allie Sherlock (born 7 April 2005) is an Irish singer, guitarist, songwriter, and busker. A video of her performing a cover of Ed Sheeran's 'Supermarket Flowers' went viral on YouTube in June 2017. She appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2018. She has performed frequently on Grafton Street in Dublin, Ireland.
Sherlock is from Douglas in Cork, Ireland, and was born on 7 April 2005. She left primary school in 2016 due to bullying and changed to homeschooling. "It wasn’t physical, it was more the way they treated me. It was done in a sneakier, slyer way. I would come home really stressed and I would be literally perspiring from the stress", she said.
Her mother died when Sherlock was 9 years old.
Sherlock began busking in Cork and later, from the age of 11, began performing almost weekly on Grafton Street, Dublin. Her father, who is her music manager, is also present and remains "on guard when people are inappropriate". He films and uploads her YouTube videos.

Vertaling:
Allie Sherlock (geboren op 7 april 2005) is een Ierse zangeres, gitariste, songwriter en straatmuzikante. Een video waarin ze een cover van Ed Sheerans 'Supermarket Flowers' uitvoerde, ging viraal op YouTube in juni 2017. Ze verscheen in The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2018. Ze trad regelmatig op in Grafton Street in Dublin, Ierland.
Sherlock komt uit Douglas in Cork, Ierland, en werd geboren op 7 april 2005. Ze verliet de basisschool in 2016 vanwege pesten en stapte over op thuisonderwijs. "Het was niet fysiek, het was meer de manier waarop ze me behandelden. Het gebeurde op een geniepige, sluwere manier. Ik kwam echt gestrest thuis en ik transpireerde letterlijk van de stress", zei ze.
Haar moeder stierf toen Sherlock 9 jaar oud was.
Sherlock begon met straatoptredens in Cork en begon later, vanaf haar elfde, bijna wekelijks op te treden in Grafton Street, Dublin. Haar vader, die haar muziekmanager is, is ook aanwezig en blijft "op zijn hoede als mensen ongepast zijn". Hij filmt en uploadt haar YouTube-video's.

Allie Sherlock vind je ook onder 'Songteksten' bij 'I Will Survive' en 'Flowers':
"Recentelijk kwam deze klassieke song weer in beeld dankzij een groot aanstormend talent uit Ierland: Allie Sherlock. Eigenlijk is ze niet in opkomst, want aan haar optredens is volgens velen maar weinig toe te voegen. Sherlock heeft inmiddels al enkele miljoenen fans positief verrast met haar live concerten in de straten van Dublin."

Indrukwekkend hoe prachtig Allie Sherlock dit nummer hier vertolkt in de straten van Dublin. Een doorleefde stem en zichzelf ongelofelijk mooi begeleidend op alleen een akoestische gitaar, wat willen we nog meer?
Onbegrijpelijk dat veel wandelaars met hun boodschappentas in de hand niet opvalt langs wat voor groot talent ze voorbij wandelen. Ze missen iets erg moois, dat hier te zien is.

We were good, we were gold
Kinda dream that can't be sold
We were right 'til we weren't
Built a home and watched it burn

Mm, I didn't wanna leave you, I didn't wanna lie
Started to cry, but then remembered I

I can buy myself flowers
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours
Say things you don't understand
I can take myself dancing
And I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than you can

Can love me better, I can love me better, baby
Can love me better, I can love me better, baby

Paint my nails cherry-red
Match the roses that you left
No remorse, no regret
I forgive every word you said

Ooh, I didn't wanna leave you, baby, I didn't wanna fight
Started to cry, but then remembered I

I can buy myself flowers
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours, yeah
Say things you don't understand
I can take myself dancing, yeah
I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than you can

Can love me better, I can love me better, baby
Can love me better, I can love me better, baby
Can love me better, I can love me better, baby
Can love me better, I (Ooh, I)

I didn't wanna leave you, I didn't wanna fight
Started to cry, but then remembered I

I can buy myself flowers (Uh-huh)
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours (Yeah)
Say things you don't understand (Better than you)
I can take myself dancing, yeah
I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than
Yeah, I can love me better than you can

Can love me better, I can love me better, baby (Uh)
Can love me better, I can love me better, baby (Than you can)
Can love me better, I can love me better, baby
Can love me better, I
