Deeply moving vocal harmonies and organic keys present a crisp ode to simpler musical eras, as songwriter Tony Stewart delivers a heartfelt and poignant dedication to his late wife.
Brilliantly creative from a melodic and structural perspective, Special Day meanders carefully between melancholy and optimism. The set-up has hints of both The Beatles and Queen in some ways, but ultimately holds close to the beating heart of the writing – these memories, the joy of the past, the relentless ache of true loss.
The introduction precedes a more traditional piano and voice ballad, but even then, the melody is long-form, original and expressive, and the lyrics are piercingly intimate; a diary-style poem of longing, which proves deeply personal but also remarkably relatable.
A romantic original song, inspired by the power of ever-lasting love – Special Day is both unique and nostalgic, and introduces the clever and contemplative writing of Tony Stewart in an impactful fashion.
