There was a time when I used to intellectualize love. My biggest discourse back then was on why we say we ‘fall’ in love. Why not ‘rise’? I’m glad those days are behind me, and by the grace of the Almighty, true love eventually found me.
Francesca Fuentes, in her latest song When I Fell In Love shares the story of when she fell in love. From my own experience, I believe that when true love strikes, it’s Francesca’s words that ring true. “I never been the same since. An unbearable emptiness…” It is exactly this that makes one fall. When love holds up the mirror, the masks we knowingly or unknowingly wear get revealed. Old wounds open up to be healed, and the journey begins, of gently picking oneself up from the fall. When I Fell In Love by Francesca Fuentes is an intimate story she has chosen to share, revealing to the world what love has made of her.

When I Fell In Love carries the sound that instantly transports you to the nostalgic vibe of the ’90s love song era. While its lyrics reflect the emotional maturity that many millennials have grown into today. It’s a gentle romantic number, yet at its core lives a tough, undeniable truth about reality. The soft initiation of the keys immediately carries you to a quiet corner of that secret garden. The acoustics follow, then the drums, and the momentum builds as Francesca’s charming voice holds you still, almost spellbound. Then comes the first verse that sweeps you off your feet, “When flowers snowed from a tree, and fell into my hand. Just like the way you fell into me.” And finally, it’s the closing lines that bind you to the song.
