Michelle Fabre Returns with A Sentimental Single


A beautiful new single release from Michelle Fabre delivers such a warm and relatable sentiment that not only is it touching, but it's something that obviously meant a lot to her so when you listen to the song you know it came from an authentic place, which is also something you can tell by listening to her powerful vocal performance.


"Never Goodbye" is a song that pulls at the heartstrings simply because it's about losing a friend and some of the struggles that you go through emotionally when that happens.


The song is really about not saying goodbye, as implied by the title, of course. Holding on to your faith and knowing that that friend is still around in some way shape or form and knowing you will see them again one day.


The song is a wonderfully woven contemporary pop-style track that features acoustic guitar and bountiful vocals that, during the choruses can be subtle and patient so that you're paying attention to the lyrics. However, once the core comes in, they become robust and powerful, and this is where those emotions come into play.


That emotional intensity is high during those choruses, and you can feel it in your bones.


The whole track is arranged wonderfully and of course, the sentiment is something that all of us can relate to at one time or another.


A lot of us have dealt with the loss of someone or something close to us and when it comes down to it, it's hard for us to struggle with those feelings alone. You feel alone when something like that happens and when you hear someone like this one, you realize that you are not alone, and that's the power of how Michelle delivers her songs.


She's not only doing this for herself, but she realizes that others can understand it and relate to it as well. Maybe you won't feel as alone as you do when you lose something close to you after listening to the song.


That is the absolute power of music.


The arrangement is gorgeous here. Michelle shines with presents which is kind of a staple of her music anyway but it's always something that makes you take a step back for a minute.


She has a lot of gorgeous range and control over the dynamic levels of her voice. She can get more intense during the choruses and relay some more of her inner thoughts during the verses.


It's the way she performs those verses and choruses that gets you hooked and lets you understand how genuine it all is.


I also love how the song actually grows. Not only in intensity but musically as well. At the start, it's a bit more stripped down. By the end of the track, the final chorus has a lot more instrumentation that comes through in a lusher and more vast tonality.


As I mentioned before, it's quite a beautiful arrangement and works wonders in terms of giving off the sentiment, and value of the song itself.


To me, songs like this are a bit cinematic because of how they grow and what they're about. I love songs that let out this much inner thought and emotion because these are the things that give a song a persona and character which is what you end up getting yourself attached to.


Michelle always has persona oozing from her songs and all of her releases are a little bit different bringing something fresh to the table with each one.


She's an artist who is always evolving and writing about things in her life, so you know everything is, again, authentic which is very important when it comes down to the kind of music that she writes.


This was a wonderful song that might hit you hard if you've lost a close friend, but it also lets you feel good as the song has a very positive and spirited sentiment, all in all.


Listen to this one with headphones on and remember where you heard it first.
