Ever heard of Myles Smith? If not, you’re in for a treat.
The Luton based artist is making waves in the music scene. Just a month after dropping his second single ‘My Home,’ he’s back with ‘Solo,’ his third musical creation.
The song kicks off with a short instrumental intro drawing listeners into Smith’s musical realm. It’s as if the opening notes are saying, “Hey, ready for a ride through all of your emotions?”
Starting with the very first line the lyrics showcase Smiths” incredible storytelling: “You promised a lifetime but left in a moment.” Inspired by drawing personal experiences and conveying a universal theme of heartbreak, those words cut deep. ‘Solo’ takes its listeners on a rollercoaster of emotions. It’s a bit sad and a bit dreamy – like a musical mood ring. Myles’ smooth vocals add layers to the song, transporting you to a different world.
The chorus acts as the song’s heart, with lines like “Why’d you get me so high to leave me so low, to leave me solo” resonating deeply, highlighting Smith’s skill for wordplay. It is like a comforting hug packaged into a song – memorable and reassuring. But it’s not only about the lyrics, the song’s production stands tall. The instrumental outro, a delicate dance between violin and piano builds as a touching punctuation to the heartfelt verses. Even the artwork of the song is well thought through: If you look closely, you can find the cover art of Smith’s second single ‘Home’ integrated into it, binding the two songs together.
As the curtains draw close to ‘Solo,’ we are left with a bittersweet taste, like a fine wine on a melancholic evening. It’s a song that nestles deep within the soul, stirring echoes of personal experiences and shared heartaches.
Myles Smith’s ‘Solo’ is not just a song; it’s a journey that speaks to the highs and lows of life. With each lyric and note, Smith solidifies his place as a storyteller, carving his niche in the hearts of listeners. We can’t wait for what’s to come!
