I guess, uh, what I'm trying to tell you is just there so many small, beautiful things on this Planet. You just got to look for them. You just got to seek out a little bit of joy, a little bit of a reason to live, every single day. And you gotta keep going. So, uh, I hope you're doing well. Ethan Jewell
Some song are meant to be listened to, some danced to but some stops you on your tracks and makes you feel everything at once, it leaves a somber aftertaste. As a music lover, sometimes I feel like listening to songs aren't enough, they need to be injected into my bloodstream or inscribed in my heart and that is how I feel when I listen to Ethan Jewell.
"Something to live for" is for those that have been in the dark for too long those that feel like there's no light at the end of the tunnel, for those who have failed and feel like there is no reason to go on and I feel like that was what Ethan was trying to portray. Ethan Jewell is well known for making music that sounds like poetry, like reading inside his diary, he is a mental health advocate and often explores theme such as depression, sadness, self isolation, loneliness.
As I hear the intro, I can imagine his hands dancing on the keyboard, the piano chords are soft nothing dramatic,then his voice soft, raw, cracking, threatening to break. Throughout the song the beat is steady everything flows allowing you to breathe with it.
"Something to live for" Is a raw and powerful song. It's raw, soulful, not dressed up to be pretty, it's not for blasting in your room, it's for 3 am when everything feels too much to bear when you feel like giving up, when you question your life and everything is crashing down.
Because even though I hold all this pain and anxiety within know that as long as the sun rises and sets from the sky to the floor. As long as those stars in the sky are alive, I have something to live for. Ethan Jewell.
It not just music, it's kinda like therapy, it slowly heals. It's my go-to when life feels off. Reminding me that there's always something to live for, even in the simple things.I may not have I purpose now, I may not have it all figured out but I can do this one step at a time. There's ALWAYS SOMETHING TO LIVE FOR.
