Always On My Mind by Chris Norman: Review
Long walks on the beach, picnics at the park, an embrace filled with longing for one another– all these emotions come alive strongly in Chris Norman’s cover track “Always On My Mind”. The romance is as clear as day whenever the veteran artist exudes his buttery smooth vocals on the track.
The warmth of the heart is shown so delicately through beautiful acoustic passages, and an orchestra to keep it company. Chris Norman sings in the key of hardship and bonding, and the flair of his voice truly shines on each note. In addition to that, some light harmonies to grace the presence of the track sound truly heavenly. If you’ve ever wanted to apologize to that special someone, or even declare your fondness, “Always On My Mind” is a true testament to that aspect. Progressing through the track and arriving in the heat of the acoustic guitar solo resonated with a Spanish twist. Each phrasing of the guitar was intentionally crafted and polished to perfection.
The lyrics of “Always On My Mind” are endearing, and can be relatable to anyone. It is this wholesome intent in which Chris Norman’s soft voice feels like a blessing. Originally a track by the legendary Elvis Presley, “Always On My Mind” is a special melody that stands still through the test of time. Chris Norman’s sensational performance truly pays tribute to the late icon’s heartfelt track, and all the familiar feelings come back while listening to it.
