Dutch Rhythm Gurus Channel Madchester Magic: “Love Can Take You Places” by Lemon

Brian Wapole’s “A Thousand Years”: A Song of Love, Lies, and Regret

"A Thousand Years" by Brian Wapole

The deep emotions of sadness and regret are beautifully conveyed in Brian Wapole's "A Thousand Years" song, as it narrates a long-lasting lie. The protagonist, who harbors strong love feelings for someone, has kept his true feelings and intentions hidden.
Moist tears welled up in his eyes as he grappled with the fragility and delicacy of his deceptive relationship. He felt trapped in a world of isolation and unhappiness, but remained loyal to his lie. Slowly but surely, he began to understand that his actions were wrong and hurtful to both himself and the other person. 
The song playing in the background conjured memories of "Supertramp", a classic rock band that he deeply admired. With its flawless blend of Indie Pop/Rock music and masterful storytelling, it was a perfect match.
Brian Wapole has recently caught our interest with his first ever composition. This has left us quite curious about the direction he will take in his future productions.
