COLORADO

I Need Your Love doesn’t shout - it sways.
Blending elements of Afro-Pop, mellow dancehall, urban chillwave and electronic Afrobeats, the track unfolds like a humid night breeze, carrying both sensual warmth and emotional weight. Sung in West African Pidgin English, the dual vocals mirror the push-and-pull of desire and doubt, longing and distance.

The production is stripped yet precise: bouncing percussions, soft pads, and a hypnotic groove create a lush space where vulnerability can dance. The contrast between the laidback beat and the bittersweet vocal tone creates a compelling tension - a love story that lives in the unresolved.

More than just a love song, I Need Your Love captures the emotional texture of modern relationships - part ritual, part release. A mood piece for late-night city drives, quiet thoughts, or playlists that speak with rhythm instead of volume.

Genre:  Electronic Afrobeat / Afro-Pop / Mellow Dancehall / Urban Chillwave

Artist Comments:

I am beside myself with joy to honour the memory of my high school bestie Dan Wayne Dunlop (October 4, 1957 – November 17, 2012), by re-recording, producing and publishing his original song "Young Love".  Dan and I first met in junior high school and became the best of friends in high school.  We were bad, had tons of fun and jammed together often for many years.  Known by many names, Dan, Big Mouth or the Baron of Barrie, he loved the Barrie, Ontario community and its people. He felt at home in Barrie and even recorded a song, an ode to his adopted City of Barrie.  Dan, as an entertainer extraordinaire, was best known for hosting the comedy skit-based TV show "Big Mouth" winning a Rogers Television Award in 2005 as best on-air personality.  Dan, AKA "FastManDan," wrote "Young Love" in the late 1970s. He recorded it on a cassette player using a drum machine, his guitar, and, of course, his vocals. My AI attempt to revive the recording from my cassette copy didn't work out, so I decided to re-record the song. The great thing is I couldn't be more pleased with the results, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!  In many ways, Dan was my mentor.  I admired and took inspiration from his independent nature, courage, talent and outstanding determination.  A born comedian and later a cartoonist, singer, songwriter, guitarist, Impressionist, puppeteer, exotic pet handler, film producer, radio talk show host, cameraman and film editor,  Dan was one dynamite entertainer and a hilarious prankster!  Just as important was his good nature and big heart.  Dan truly cared about the well-being of others and was not afraid to show you that side of himself.  Dan influenced and affected many people's lives, and all are grateful to have known this man. I miss him very much and crack a smile whenever I think of the good times we had together.  As much as a man can love a man, I loved Dan – rest in peace, my great friend and brother!  Wow, is it not the coolest thing knowing that your spirit has a voice through this great tune of yours?

The Song: 

 "Young Love", with its catchy pop/dreamy groove, delves into that classic middle-age crisis that fosters a man's conflicting desire for younger women.

Yeah…

Why do I…

Why do I keep fallin' when I know I should run?
Give you all my daylight just to fade like the sun
Why do I replay every word that you said?
Like a song stuck in my head

Can't forget, can't forget

I know the signs but I still drive blind
Crash my heart every single time
Tell myself it’s love, maybe I’m just high
Feelin’ low with a smile I hide

Why do I, why do I
Keep holdin’ on to what we let die?
Why do I chase what makes me cry?
Fall for the pain, yeah, every time

Why do I, why do I?
Can’t let go even when I try
Why do I lie and say I’m fine…
Why, why do I?

Why do I believe when the proof’s in the flame?
Burned so many times, but I still take the blame
Why do I wish you'd call late at night
When I know deep down it won’t feel right?

I swear I'm done but I'm back again
Tied to your ghost like it's oxygen
Swore I’d change but the cycle spins
Here I go fallin’ in again

Why do I, why do I
Keep holdin’ on to what we let die?
Why do I chase what makes me cry?
Fall for the pain, yeah, every time

Why do I, why do I?
Can’t let go even when I try
Why do I lie and say I’m fine…
Why, why do I?

Heart on repeat, I can’t rewind
Dreams of you keep killin’ time
I know the cost, still pay the price
Tell me why… tell me why

Why do I, why do I
Keep holdin’ on to what we let die?
Why do I chase what makes me cry?
Fall for the pain, yeah, every time

Why do I, why do I?
Can’t let go even when I try
Why do I lie and say I’m fine…
Why, why do I?

Yeah… why do I…

Yeah… why do I…

Yeah… why do I…

William Shakespeare - "To me, fair friend..." (sonnet 73)

"That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou see'st the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death's second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the death-bed whereon it must expire,
Consum'd with that which it was nourish'd by.
This thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well which thou must leave ere long."
