‘Always’ is a song about irrevocable love. A feeling so powerful that it can hold you back from moving on. The artist explores this pull of the theme with fantastical atmospheres and cinematic sweeps. When you listen to it, it’s almost like you’re flying over a valley of time with the tale playing out within it. Guest artist, June Baltzersen’s vocals have that bluesy ballad kind of feel, expanded into a vastness that you can consume. The song embodies the nature of this kind of love, its magic, romance, alongside its heartache. The song is scenic, cast with a new age beauty that perhaps is inspired by the landscapes in his country.
The instrumental version is a great space to enjoy the lilting movements and moments of the composition. You can teeter, hover at the peak and then float away, spreading out and flying through it. The softness, lightness of the melodies are contrasted by emphatic beats and grounding guitar work. The essence, the scene presents itself like an unravelling magic show. Add some chorals to it, crescending to angelic highs. It highlights the fantastical features of the compositions, showcasing them at a level that you can revel in. In many ways, this version gives you the vision of the artist on a silver platter. The best way to enjoy the songs is to listen to them all. And then go back to listen to the original version in wake of the last two instrumentals. With the context that you’re showered with, you’ll appreciate the original song more. Listen Now!
