There's no mistaking it coming straight from your heart to the listener. You just showed us that something beautiful can come out of loss and pain. Amazing, Erin. 2022-01-12T15:49:16Z Comment by Claes Oh, I like that note on the word True! 2022-01-12T15:44:05Z Comment by Alex Very powerful chorus and it sounds like a finished version to me 👏 2022-01-12T10:31:43Z Comment by Evan McDoniels sometimes throwing caution to the wind and just letting it fly is the best way to create! no shame in that. And if this is you as a "rough" take, it's pretty awesome, keep on doing it! 2022-01-12T00:24:53Z Comment by James Tristan Redding Wow what a balance between art and craft. It feels like (and please forgive me "assessing", as I know that's not the point) you have been hitting the songwriting gym SO hard, and then in this one, allowed those muscles to carry you through something deep. 2022-01-11T02:19:29Z Comment by Julia Bloom This is beautiful, I love the chorus! And this line - "sometimes we've gotta face what's staring right at us and oh leave the magic for another day" 2022-01-10T17:20:31Z Comment by Music Box This is musically and lyrically very powerful. Nicely done, Erin. 2022-01-10T01:18:59Z Comment by niki s this is so beautiful Erin!! To have the emotional space to play and write and sing like this is wonderful and inspiring for so many today.
