This is a song called 'We Just Do' from the album 'The Very Act Of Breathing' (possibly my favourite song). We considered using images and then realised that you already had those in your head, that the words were enough. It is for all those that struggle on a daily basis, those who silently help others without thought of reward, those mothers and fathers who give simply through love. The Ukraine was in the back of our mind, in their struggle against the madman Putin, how those poor souls have to fight tirelessly every day, both soldier and civilian, just to see the next sunrise. We cannot help them with anything but our words and thoughts and they have them, all those quiet heroes who sit silently and await the dawn.
Sometimes, it is just the very act of breathing that gives us hope.
New from Gil Laine, a rather sad and beautiful song about losing someone through dementia or loss by any means really.
