Drawing us in with a glistening, guitar soundscape, Rich Anthony opens If I Had Your Love with emotive, introspective prose as he sings, “What can’t you see, I’m the one you need, instead you run right through me, and never get the chance to prove me, why can’t you see?”
We immediately connect with the power pop vocal design, and the textured nature of the opus, which creates a cohesive and immersive tapestry of sound that needless to say, we cannot get enough of.
The romantic and authentic nature of the poetic prowess that Rich Anthony conveys is tangible, and the journey that he takes us on with his spirit and sentiment is engaging and ethereal.
With reference to If I Had Your Love, the star tells us optimistically, “This song is being hopeful about becoming someone’s next partner.”
Speaking further on the release, Rich confesses, “This is my first single of my upcoming album called “eMpTy“. These are all songs inspired by someone whose initials are M.T. The songs range for hopeful and happy to defeated and sad… which is why I thought the title was fitting. I know everything has a time, but at times I still think of M.T. and wonder what’s going on in their life. We lost contact years ago. But maybe one of these songs will reach M.T.’s ears and they’ll reach out to me. My number is still the same.”
We are in awe of how Rich is sharing his soul through his artistry, and appreciate the raw and vulnerable nature of his intention. The composition showcases instrumental mastery, which we also appreciate!
We have added If I Had Your Love to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and look forward to future releases from Rich Anthony, whilst we cross our fingers that M.T. hears his wonderful art!
