I remember this being the first song I heard when the album dropped. The metronomic drums, ethereal guitar, and somber bass drew me in. The lyrics made me think back on a relationship I had to give up and sounded like he saw it all from a distance. A beautiful song that still evokes emotion everytime I listen to it.

Please listen to his version of this song on acoustic set. it is breathtaking
Unfortunately `2nd time arounds` have been sour for me.. "I needed air, I stepped out, on the balcony, and the world took me out"

I'm a big Bilal fan, but he took a loop from Gentle Giant, a song called Memories of Old Days. Just thought credit should be given.

Thank you for pointing out Ben Flint. WOuldn't be a big deal if it wasn't the major rif and harmony for the entire song. Hopefully he'll credit on the album.

This is especially important because NOONE makes chords progresions as unique as GG,
you mess with the 1st Born Second too? I don't think this album is as good as that one though

Something different from Bilal. It is his own style.
@thenewthought8612 жыл бұрын
i agree, it's frustrating to me though because that 1st Born album was on point track for track without skipping a song, but because of his style/content people were pretty much unaware of it. I bought because the single "Love It" was so crucial. But you have all of these industry clowns making this trash nowadays and real artists who actually make music for the soul don't get enough shine. it's very sad to witness yo
