Singer-Songwriter Sings a Love Letter to the Unique Special Person in Her Life
Rising pop artist Bess Chew has just released her new single, “You Are”, showcasing her unique songwriting, production and vocal prowess as she sings about the person in her life that she cannot do without. “You Are” is a ballad-esque song which delivers soothing melodic vocals with deeply meaningful lyrics. To some listeners, the song could speak of a soulmate, while to others, it could refer to a faithful friend or family member. Regardless, everybody yearns for someone who will always be by their side no matter how long and narrow the path of life that they walk. The single is now available to stream and download on digital platforms worldwide.
Bess Chew artistically opens “You Are” by painting a scene of loneliness and weariness after walking through a long and tiring path. The song then goes on to describe how she draws strength from someone who is constantly holding her, defending her, and keeping her hopes alive. “To me, this song feels like a love letter expressing joy and gratitude to that special person who has never given up on me and has been with me through thick and thin”, she explains. Each line is carefully crafted to describe the unfailing nature and unbreakable strength of the relationship, as her vocals further elevate the track, blending soothing harmonies with a soulful delivery that draws listeners in from the very first note.
Produced and written by Bess Chew, “You Are” continues to showcase the artist’s evolving talent. Bess Chew delivers both main and background vocals, while Adrian Wong’s expertise in mixing and mastering ensures a polish and authentic sound that delivers the message of the song. Together, they have created a soul-healing experience through the melody, lyrics, instrumentation and vocals, depositing a lasting peace in the listener’s heart and mind.
