Offering - A COLORS SHOW

Verse 1)
Patient like the tide, kind like a silent hand,
Love ain’t walking on stilts, no blinding crown, no proud tongue— Just steady while the storm rips the night. I see it stretch across broken roads, forgiving every splintered lie— All things borne, all things hoped, all things endured in this relentless sky.

(Pre-Chorus)
Truth walks, fear flees, no guillotine shadows where the heart still breathes.
Perfect love driving thunder out— call it redemption, call it oxygen.

(Chorus)
We lift it up, we wear it bold, we let it bind the fractured whole. We love because we were first loved—hands open, chains gone, spirits restored! Scars spliced into grace-light shards, every wound turned into art— Love never ends, love never ends.

(Verse 2)
Echo from a hill, blood-price sky unfurls a rescue that no vault could buy. Arms wide over the world, neon cosmos cracking open midway through the night. Lay it down, lay it down—greater love got no bigger sound. Mics rattle, guitars collide, bodies jump together, ground to crown.

(Bridge)
Jealous tries to rattle cages—love slams gates with melody engaged. Irritable, rude, or resentful can’t survive the beam-heat blaze. Every wrong’s quicksand is swallowed by justice; cosmos sighs and recreates.

(Verse 3)
Above all faults and fears, deeper than every graveyard sin— A blanket thrown across the void, binding fractures in a single ring. Do everything in this one thing—heart and soul, mind and strength, Neighbour next to neighbour, love echoes endless.

(Outro)
As long as rivers run, as long as lungs still sing— Love crashes gates wide open sparks ignite, kingdoms rebuilding.
Fade on layered “never ends, never ends,” sung over airy church bells.

Love Never Ends

Toniey Girl does it again,
Making another comeback with her latest new single that she also wrote and produced…
“Too Old for the Game” rides a smooth, soulful groove — part Diamond in the Back cool, part Mission: Impossible swagger. With jazzy chords, laid-back funk, and raw, grown-folks honesty, the track calls out the chaos of modern dating and the exhaustion that comes with it. It’s not bitter — it’s wise. For anyone who’s tired of the chase and ready for something real.

This one’s for anyone who knows what it’s like to be out there in this complicated dating world.

Adi has has toured globally, appearing with such artists as Lenny Kravitz, Masego, Anderson .Paak,  Thundercat, Gilles Peterson, Yasiin Bey and more, and has performed at  a wide variety of festivals including Newport Jazz Fest, Love Supreme, Central Park Summerstage, Afropunk, the Montreux Jazz Festival, Cross the Tracks, Funk on the Rocks (Red Rocks).

I’m not a computer algorithm, I’m a human music curator!
Unlike many other music blogs I don't write daily reviews about the latest tracks/albums in the folk/pop/rock/electro music genre.
I collect them and playlist 10 of them under a coherent mood.
