Review of ‘Lily’ from The Color Blew – Every now and then, a song comes along that doesn’t just sound good, it feels real That’s exactly what The Color Blew’s ‘ Lily ’ is about Real stuff Messy stuff There’s something warm and natural about the track You can hear the fervent emotion, which makes sense as it was written when Timothy Lotter was at his lowest Knowing that just adds more weight to the lyrics and overall sound The band channeled pain and loneliness beautifully The lyrics….there’s a story here….I don’t know it, but I definitely feel it Musically, it’s everything I love right now about The Color Blew Soulful vocals, powerful guitar work, and a welcoming mood It’s so easy to listen to It’s not trying to be deep, it just is Honest and real It came out just as it was intended…soul food As sad as the song sounds, it’s left a hopeful message etched over the writer’s scars That good things will find you, with patience and an openness to receiving them Time does heal… It’s the kind of reminder we all need when life hits heavy ‘ Lily ‘ doesn’t pretend everything’s perfect It acknowledges “struggle” of the human condition but still manages to shine a light through it What can I say…I’m a sucker for happy endings, stories of hope and the proverbial “light at the end of the tunnel.” Honestly, it’s a beautiful piece of music and one I’ll be going back to Whether you’re going through a rough patch or just want something meaningful to sit with, give ‘ Lily ’ a listen You might find exactly what you didn’t know you needed Stream ‘Lily’ by The Color Blew here Follow The Color Blew Online here Originally published on ZiFM Stereo All Zim News is a central hub for all things Zimbabwean, curating news from across the country so no story is missed Alongside aggregation, our team of nationwide reporters provides real-time, on-the-ground coverage Stay informed and connected — reach us at admin@allzimnews.com .
