And the rains been falling since time beganlines from 'As long as the rain'
Since before the flood and the first rivers ran
Since the first songs were kept inside
In the darkness where the stars used to hide
'As long as the rain'? This song is everything.
For those who know Mr. Holland, this song is just another masterpiece with wonderful emotions, amazing lyrics and music. For other people, this song can be a revelation, a brand new beautiful world, a deep breath from 'a normal music'.
I don't know how he is doing it but he is giving listeners something more than music. Emotions. Some kind of magic. His heart and soul. And that's incredible.
I wrote it in previous posts about Mr. Holland, but I will say it again: this is another breathtaking song. From the first to the last second this song is just breathtaking.
And his voice. And that magical mood between the lines. And the lyrics. Just a perfect song.
I will tell you a secret. You have to listen to this song in the darkness. Alone. Just close your eyes, put the play and fell in the music. With your eyes closed, you can be under the impression that he is singing right next to you. That he is right next to you, playing on his guitar and singing just for you. You can feel his voice on your skin.
Trust me. Just try this. I promise you, the magic will happen in your life.
The lyrics? Too perfect to be true. As always. You can imagine every word, every line, you can feel a million emotions. You can feel his voice on your skin. That's incredible.
You can fall in the music, you can fall in lyrics. you can love it, admire it, be happy. You can cry, be sad - but you will be still in love with this song.
We need this kind of music. Songs like this one are like a beautiful star in the night sky. Something unique.
It's important to feel the music, it's important to be a part of music. To feel the lyrics, music and emotions deep in your soul.
"As long as the rain", as the almost all songs by Ben Holland, is a perfect mix of the purest and the most wonderful things in the music world. I wrote it already but I think you should know that: Mr. Ben Holland is somebody between Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynne.
Mr. Ben Holland is the King of today's music. A real music, of course.
I have been listening to this song so many times and I still don't have enough. I think I am addicted to this song. And I am proud of it.
Don't worry, you will fall in love with this song.
