Our obsession with VANNGO seems to grow with every listen, we recently featured his survival anthem, Soaked to the Soul, as well as his cathartic ode to Los Angeles, We’ll Rise LA!, so when we heard that VANNGO was back with Tears Fall Like The Rain, we couldn’t wait to listen and share our experience.
Drawing us in with an acoustic guitar soundscape and cinematic whistle tone, VANNGO opens Tears Fall Like The Rain with a reflective tone as he sings, “I wanna go back to the place, before you ran away, where love was pure before…”
The opus expands into a bittersweet ballad that aches with memory and loss. We appreciate the fusion of folk rock and country, manifesting a raw and high emotional quotient with deep rooted humanity. A sublime folk-adjacent violin weaves through adding a more emotive frequency to the piece, which also really brings to life notions of sorrow and beauty in equal measure.
In essence, the lyrics tell the story of love remembered, but never truly gone with robust metaphorical depth that also feels highly relatable. VANNGO truly showcases his poetic prowess with the track.
“This song is about the kind of love that lingers long after it’s gone,” VANNGO confesses. “The memories can haunt you, but it’s also about how facing that pain can help you heal. I wanted the song to feel like a companion for anyone moving through loss, showing that even in heartbreak, there’s a path forward.”
The talented artist’s authentic delivery is what makes Tears Fall Like The Rain unforgettable – perfect for a range of sync deals – a story like Purple Hearts or Hollywood blockbuster tapping into themes of love lost. His voice also reminds us of Chris Cornell – cracking at the edges, but never faltering in emotion.
Naturally, we are in awe, and have added Tears Fall Like The Rain to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS playlist, whilst we continue to stream the wider discography of VANNGO, and anticipate future releases from the emotionally attuned artist.
