Rainbows Come by Atlas Cedar published on 2020-07-30T14:39:38Z Thank you to our health service and key workers: https://www.nhscharitiestogether.co.uk/ This song was originally written in November 2019, before I stopped playing due to severe pain in my left hand. Since then, the coronavirus pandemic has struck and I moved home to be closer to my family, with no access to my music for almost 5 months. Ironically, this song was always about the theme of 'light from darkness', as I took a photo of a rainbow in a fountain near my home and considered the fact that rainbows are only visible when you face away from the Sun. Little did I know that this would become a fitting metaphor for the coronavirus pandemic, where the rainbow symbol has been adopted to show support for our neighbour, key workers and NHS staff. This song is dedicated to all key and frontline workers during these difficult times... P.S. The seven note chord intro is meant to be symbolic of a rainbow Photography by Sebastián Navarro https://unsplash.com/@nabxnav https://www.instagram.com/nabxnavph/ Used under Creative Commons license Lyrics: I'm locked down Life gone to ground I've seen rain Almost endlessly I won't forget Times that we shed Endless tears When hope faded away Light shines now Upon a broken town Through the rain The sun will rise again From this day I can feel the change On darkened days Lit in spectral ways Rainbows come When you turn your back on the sun Genre Alternative Rock Comment by Decan Usmic What a star ⭐️You are ⭐️ 2021-08-24T16:13:40Z Comment by Julie Elphick Many hues in this track.... beautiful 2021-05-18T22:24:58Z Comment by Daniels & Durgy Delightful, ethereal blanket of sweet sound.
