The latest single release from Steve Andrews delivers such a warm and important message through the form of a singer-songwriter and folk sound and with that message comes this robust character that really becomes something you don't want to let go of.
"We Can Sing Together" is the type of song that grows as you listen to it and becomes a little bit more intense as well so at the beginning of the track you have a little bit more of a stripped-down vocal and acoustic guitar feel but by the end, he's got a group of kids singing along this beautiful chorus and it becomes heartwarming.
This is a beautifully constructed song, but it really just comes from the heart and that's what makes the most impact because the message behind it is focused on how we can send a message of love in a certain aspect.
Instead of coming from places where we are separated, we should be as one and show that we care about everything and everyone around us the way we want to.
We can sing together is the message behind the song itself as well as the title of course.
We can do this together if we want to as people and I think that's a beautiful sentiment that a lot of us need to hear, and some of us actually feel that emotionally and just don't know how to articulate that into words let alone words and music so listening to this song really lets us feel like we're not alone in thinking those kinds of things.
Steve's vocals are classic folk style, and they do come through with a sort of rustic and warm tonality, and the acoustic guitar and synth pads that give almost string-like orchestrated sections in the background make this a full-bodied song even though it still feels so one-on-one and personal.
Again, it's towards the middle and end of the song where he's got a group of kids singing that chorus and that's where things wrap themselves around you and keep you right where they want to.
There's something about that sound. The sound of kids singing this meaningful chorus. It grabs you and lets you get engulfed and everything that's happening.
To me, this track had some cinematic undertones because of its sentiment and meaning, but it's also that performance that intensifies things.
When you listen to this track, you listen and you soak in that message well because it's so cut and dry, crystal clear.
I think we need more music like this in the world just in general. Music that makes you feel but also music that makes you think.
It's songs like these that give you that little bit of an extra push to possibly let you help that person that you've been wanting to help.
I love that feeling and it is indeed quite warm and welcoming.
A beautiful song from a beautiful songwriter who really gives a piece of himself in the song but also delivers it to the masses in such a fluent and understandable way.
Take a listen to this track as soon as you can and remember where you heard it first.
