This stunning new track is from someone we’ve presented before, singer-songwriter Steven Bottari. Rather than write a bunch of hyperbole, read what Steve has to say about the song and then listen – you will FEEL this song.
As per Steve:
“I wrote this song in response to my growing fear of a slowly dying Earth; an apocalypse of sorts – with a population that has become more and more egocentric and less concerned about the general good.
The song expresses the idea that the dire consequences of not respecting and caring for the Earth, and all that it provides for us to enjoy and to sustain life, affects all of us equally (“And it will find you wherever you are”).
In the end, we are all in it together to save this beautiful planet. And unless we pull together, all that will be left will be “locked in your memory jar”. Musically, I felt that a beautiful melody and production (as opposed to a somber one) would enable the listener to process the disturbing nature of the lyrics without turning away from them. With the help of the supreme talents of producer Wayne Hood, I think we succeeded.”
Indeed, this track succeeds on so many levels.
Listen and find a place in your head and your heart.
