Sweeter Than Sorrow Showcases Songwriting on “the bond”
Sweeter Than Sorrow creates a soft and tender world in “the bond,” where the celestial piano and warm strings take you for a slow swirl on the romantic clouds under the stars. “the bond” is a song about the intimacy and love between soulmates, inspired by the creator of Sweeter Than Sorrow, Mattias Wåhlberg’s bond with his wife.
The song speaks the language of love, where tenderness and lightheartedness intertwine with trust and comfort. It gently lifts up your feet and whispers the genuine and poetic lyrics to your ears. Sweeter Than Sorrow doesn’t dwell on heavy instrumentations or layers of sounds, with a simple combination of piano and strings, he paints a beautiful soundscape that captures your heart.
The orchestration of this track is another highlight in songwriting as the mood and texture of the strings gradually shift along with Wåhlberg’s intimate vocal, expressing the introspective thoughts and emotions underneath.
“We knock on heaven’s door you and I
we taste the bliss that lies out of time,
we’re symbiotic we’ve cut the boundaries
we’re flying high up, on life’s narcotics”
Known for his poised and well-crafted lyricism, “the bond” by Sweeter Than Sorrow is a work of art.
