Upon coming across “You Remind Me of the Wild” by Daniel Baylis, I couldn’t help but reminisce about the first time I heard “Annie’s Song” by John Denver. This I speak not as a comparison but to express with gratitude the presence of an overwhelming love that both the songs made me feel. In a world where generation after generation has been carrying the wound of separation from the imbalance between humanity and nature, the presence of such love feels unfamiliar. But Daniel Baylis, through his quiet and composed acknowledgment of a different yet truest form of love, gently invites the restless soul to settle down with “You Remind Me of the Wild”.

The song feels like an initiation, stirring the heart with a delicate acoustic and Daniel’s tender voice. The rhythmic pulse acts like a lullaby for the chaotic mind and the stressed-out body. I can actually play the track on loop for hours and hours in the end, knowing that no amount of outside chaos and noise will hinder the inner calm this song wraps and tugs me inside. The production is warm and organic, reflecting the textures of serenity that deep faith so subtly expands within. Daniel’s poetry is unhinged, just like the wild, and is powerfully imagistic.

“You Remind Me of the Wild” is a part of Daniel’s upcoming album, ‘The Drifting Kind’. For years, Daniel Baylis chased stories across the wild, around the world, and finally on a remote lighthouse off British Columbia, where, during months of solitude with only a guitar, forgotten melodies returned. Surrounded by sea and silence, Baylis rediscovered his voice, shaping songs that carry the depth of his journeys, tender reflection, and a long-awaited return to himself. Follow him on Instagram, and listen to the song now streaming on all major music platforms.
