Following the release of her previous heartfelt single ‘I Want to See You Again,’ North Plain, Oregon’s soulful country artist Noelle Toland’s latest single is a comforting ode to the souls that feel lost.

Coming from her upcoming debut EP, Noelle channeled her feelings on the global chaos and upheaval into a song that will inspire many for years to come. She used the imagery of the sun and moon trading places to portray that sadness can’t prevail forever, that there is hope, that the moon will pass by, and the sun will rise. The song has a certain cathartic character that reminds the artist and the listeners that everything’s gonna be alright no matter how tough it gets. This theme resonates universally making the song even more captivating.

With beautiful captivating melodies and heartfelt vocals, she captures the essence of traditional country music while singing about hardship and empathy to a backdrop of pedal steel guitar slides and a relaxed percussion beat. The moody piano melodies emphasize Noelle’s emotionally expressive vocals singing the song’s comforting lyrics. Mixing modern elements with classic country, the composition and the arrangement go hand-in-hand with the poetic lyrics further enhancing the emotions in her voice. Whether you’re having a hard time or not, this is a timeless country tune that can have a permanent place in your everyday playlist.
