We always lose the things we love.

It may be an old lover, a dream you haven't been able to unfold, it may be someone who left you first, or something you cherished.

As our lives are not infinite, the relationships we have made may someday be over.

In some ways, our life may be to let go of the things we love one by one.

Our old loves, who have gone so far, are gradually forgotten in our busy and hard daily life.

The fact that we love with all our heart goes far beyond memory, unchanged.

If you forget your precious memories and live, the moment comes when you face the things you loved so accidentally.

Of course, you won't feel the same way anymore.

As much as you love so much, other emotions will take its place.

It's been a while since I've been happy, I'm sorry for having forgotten and lived in the meantime, and the sorrow that comes up with old memories.

In the past, if you felt one sure feeling of love, this moment you faced anew would be a very complex and subtle feeling.

How to express the feelings of that moment in words.

Gavin James, the protagonist of this song, with an emotional voice that seems to touch the weak part of our hearts, is a genius who started playing the guitar at the age of eight.

An Irish singer-songwriter, he debuted in 2012 with the *EP album and became a stardom in his hometown of Ireland.

Thanks to his fame at the time, he won the '* Song of the Year from Meteor Choice Music Prize' and succeeded in signing with *Capitol Records .

In 2014, he also released the *live album [Live at Whelans], which performed only with the guitar under Capitol Records .


*EP: It refers to a record that can only record one song per side called'single version', and a record that is located in the middle of a single record and a regular record.

*Song of the Year from Meteor Choice Music Prize: Music of the Year Award given at the'Choice Music Prize' awards ceremony held in Ireland

* Capitol Records (Capitol Records): United States, California ( states record company, located in) Los Angeles

*Live album: live recordings recorded at concert sites, etc.

This song is very attractive and has an addictive hook.

The'Ooh~' sound of a high melody that starts with an admiration and ends with a false voice is the feeling of staring at the twinkling little stars on a quiet night.

The single word'Ooh~' has the power to remind listeners of many memories they have forgotten.

On the other hand, the sound of the guitar, which is in charge of the overall melody of the song, seems like a gentle wind.

It has a slightly cold feeling, but it is such a wind that is perfectly suited to the lonely atmosphere.

With this kind of guitar sound, wouldn't the hook have more power?

The sound source of the original song and the music in the video above are quite different.

(I personally recommend video rather than sound source.)

In the video, only one guitar and vocal lead the atmosphere, while the sound source includes various *sessions such as drums and keyboards .

The form at the beginning of the song, in which the drums that were not heard in the intro, are slowly heard is very impressive.

Unlike the atmosphere of the song, the beat of the drum is played by splitting the beat a lot, but the melody played by the *fingering of the guitar is not slow, so it does not give a foreign feeling.

Personally, I think that the atmosphere in the video is more lonely and it highlights the feeling that there is a story.


*Session: Words referring to ensemble

*Fingering: One of the guitar playing methods, how to play like a string bounce

Gavin James' vocals also need to be addressed.

If it's a calm and soft image when it's true, it feels like it evokes something in your heart the moment you use the false voice.

His true nature is also an attractive vocal.

However, it is his false voice that revives his deep charm and the atmosphere of the song.

In particular, the part where you sing the lyrics "I'll let you go" in the highlight part of the song shows the climax.

As it is a highlight, it shows a genuinely appealing appearance, but the final finish is finished with false voice, leaving a deep emotional linger.

If we face something we loved so much again, will our hearts pass by the memories of our passionate love and the moment we let go.

We don't desperately want it anymore, but there are no more regrets left, but only the beautiful memories and emotions of that time will bring vitality to our hearts again.

If we meet our old love, let's close our eyes quietly a little farther away.

So that you can feel the warmth that precious memories bring.
