SONG PICK: Lontalius – Someone Will Be There For You
Hope is as essential for us as oxygen. Without hope, our lives become lifeless and empty. We crave the silver lining on the horizon, the light at the end of the tunnel, and a promise like “Someone Will Be There For You”. This is also what New Zealand-based singer, songwriter, and producer Lontalius knows, and that’s why he put it in a bright and beautiful song. Eddie Johnston, the artist behind the moniker Lontalius, says about his new single:
“I’d started writing new songs at the tail end of 2019, and it was bugging me that I kept writing things that felt so insular and ‘diary entry’-like. ‘Someone’ certainly isn’t a step too far away from that, but it was me forcing myself to write something for everyone else. I’ve spent so many weeks of my life feeling like there is nothing and no one out there, feeling like the weight of the world was on my own shoulders. But it’s true, someone will be there for you! Musically this song felt so simple and its message so direct that I couldn’t overload it. I kept the instrumentation as simple as possible. Acoustic instruments recorded in an old 70s studio.”
With its focused production, the highly alluring track serves as a sonic injection of confidence and promise. Listen to “Someone Will Be There For You,” our Song Pick of the Day:
