Life Diaries 💘

My greatest joy is intangible. I find it in the creative spirit of Brian McKnight’s The Only One For Me.

Briefly I am detached from life and fully immersed in the song’s ecstasy. The vocals are rich in soulfulness coupled with a joyful blend of piano, guitar, drums, and xylophone. This song is love in sonic form. The arrangement demonstrates an ethereal harmony between instruments and vocals.

The nostalgia is so rich, offering a breathtaking familiarity that medicates me. With older parents came a natural appreciation for soulful music growing up. This to me is the gift of life, those artistic gems that find you through timelessness in times of human vulnerability.

Music is my safe space and Earth’s heavenly complement. Through it my soul is cleansed of anxieties, disappointments, and the shock element of life’s detours. The reunion of my soul and creativity is the coexisting blessing of life’s mayhem. I have gratitude for that balance.

When I am most vulnerable, life reminds me of how soothing it is to hear a song, pick up the camera, or put the pen to paper. Lately music has been the remedy. The rhymes and chorus of The Only One For Me all stem from love. They express tenderness so poignantly. How refreshing it is to see the humane aspect of music preserved.

There is no degradation, or swearing, merely love and an appreciation of women expressed. When paired with the enriching instrumentals I am reminded how ideal a formula music is for the human spirit. Brian McKnight possesses a gorgeous tenor range complemented by a stunning falsetto ability. This is the finishing touch that brings the music together.

My enjoyment of this work of art is strongest during solitude. When the world’s weight is out of my system I am in the rich possession of my heart. I am enamored with its unison with the art that resonates most.
