Setting the tone with power pop vocals singing “Til you came along…”, Graham Coe opens Since You Came Along with an immersive and glistening soundscape, as he sings, “You gave me chance, to be part of your plan, when no one else would, I felt so alone for so long, until you came along, until you came along…”
The opus expands into a meaningful, timeless, pop meets soft rock energy filled with gratitude and powerful story telling, with poetic nuance and prowess. The chord changes are masterful and emotive, and the harmonies add an iconic sense of dimensionality, amplifying the emotion that Graham radiates!
We appreciate the depth, charisma and vulnerability Graham Coe instills as he shares his soul. With an upbeat 1960s feel, Graham tells us that vocally he was inspired by The Searchers and The Tremeloes, which we can feel come to life in the piece, although there is no doubt that Graham Coe is creating a universe of his own.
We learn that Since You Came Along is produced by Grammy nominated producers Chris O’Brien and Graham Murphy from The production Suite, and Graham confesses that the song is indeed about “the relief and fulfilment that a person experiences in knowing that they have met their life partner.”
There is nothing like a classic romance tale, and cementing true love energy with a powerful song like this shows that it is not only possible to find real love, but worth the wait.
The authenticity that Graham Coe shares is tangible, and we have added Since You Came Along to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we explore his wider discography!
