Laufey plays the song "I Wish You Love" live in concert before a sold-out crowd at The Masonic in San Francisco, California on April 12, 2024. I Wish You Love appeared on Laufey's Typical Of Me EP (2021) and later on her live album with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra, A Night At The Symphony (2023). I Wish You Love--written by Charles Trenet and Léo Chauliac and called Que Reste-T-il De Nos Amours--was released by Lucienne Boyer in 1942. The English version--with new lyrics by Albert Askew Beach--was released by Keely Smith in 1957 and has been covered by many, including Ella Fitzgerald, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Michael Bublé, Chet Baker, Gloria Lynne, Ray Charles, Harry Connick Jr., Marlene Dietrich, Benny Goodman, Dionne Warwick, Barbra Streisand, Rod Stewart, Dean Martin, Chrissie Hynde, Robert Goulet, Jermaine Jackson, Johnny Mathis, Andy Williams, and Sam Cooke.

Laufey Lín Bing Jónsdóttir (林冰) is a 24-year-old Grammy Award winning Chinese-Icelandic jazz/pop singer, songwriter, pianist, and cellist based in Los Angeles.

I Wish You Love lyrics

I wish you bluebirds in the spring
To give your heart a song to sing
And then a kiss, but more than this
I wish you love

And in July, a lemonade
To cool you in some leafy glade
I wish you health and more than wealth
I wish you love

My breaking heart and I agree
That you and I could never be
So, with my best, my very best
I set you free

I wish you shelter from the storm
A cozy fire to keep you warm
But most of all, when snowflakes fall
I wish you love

My breaking heart and I agree
That you and I could never be
So, with my best, my very best
I set you free

I wish you shelter from the storm
A cozy fire to keep you warm
But most of all, when snowflakes fall
I wish you love, love, love

Laufey official bio:

Laufey (pronounced lāy-vāy) is a 24-year-old, Los Angeles-based singer, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist whose jazz songs are about young love and self-discovery. Raised between Reykjavík and Washington, D.C. with annual visits to Beijing, the Icelandic-Chinese artist grew up playing cello as well as piano and became hooked on the jazz standards of Ella Fitzgerald after digging through her father’s record collection.

In 2020, while still a student at Berklee College of Music, Laufey released her debut single “Street by Street,” which went on to top the Icelandic radio charts. The song reached the top of the Icelandic radio charts and caught the eyes of contemporaries like Billie Eilish, Willow Smith, V of BTS, and dodie, who collaborated with Laufey on “Love to Keep Me Warm.” Laufey’s ascent has also included winning Best New Artist in Jazz and Blues at the 2021 Icelandic Music Awards, hosting her own show on BBC Radio 3/BBC Sounds “Happy Harmonies,, and opening the year making her live TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Following the release of her 2021 Typical Of Me EP, Laufey was named Best New Artist in Jazz and Blues at the Icelandic Music Awards and hosted her own show on BBC Radio 3/BBC Sounds. Her debut full-length Everything I Know About Love, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Alternative New Artist Album chart, and the lead single “Valentine” peaked at #1 on the Spotify Jazz Chart. In 2022 Laufey was the most streamed jazz artist on Spotify, with 425 million streams across all platforms.
