Ole Bornemann Bull (Norwegian pronunciation: [ˈu:lə ˈbʉl]; 5 February 1810 – 17 August 1880) was a Norwegian violinist and composer.
Biography
Background
Bull was born in Bergen, Norway. He was the eldest of ten children of Johan Storm Bull (1787–1838) and Anna Dorothea Borse Geelmuyden (1789–1875). His brother, Georg Andreas Bull became a noted Norwegian architect. He was also the uncle of Edvard Hagerup Bull, Norwegian judge and politician.
His father wished for him to become a minister, but he desired a musical career. At the age of four or five, he could play all of the songs he had heard his mother play on the violin. At age nine, he played first violin in the orchestra of Bergen's theatre and was a soloist with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra. At eighteen, he was sent to the University of Christiania, but failed his examinations. He joined the Musical Lyceum, a musical society, and after its director Waldemar Thrane took ill, Bull became the director of Musical Lyceum and the Theater Orchestra in 1828. He also became friends with Henrik Wergeland, who later wrote a biography of Bull.

Everything Is Broken
by: OllabelleTake hold of this moment
Let go all of the past
Everything is broken
Nothing ever lasts
Everything is broken
Nothing ever lasts
Fall back to the one thing
One thing that makes sense
Hold around each other
Be in the present tense
Everything is broken
Nothing ever lasts
Now here we are just like we've started
The ghost of love departed
Well, here we are just like we've started
The ghost of love departed
Take hold of this moment
Let go all of the past
Everything is broken
Nothing ever lasts
Everything is broken
Nothing ever lasts
Well, everything is broken
Nothing ever lasts
Everything is broken
