The song I’m writing about today has probably been my most listened-to song this month. I must admit that a big reason for that is that I really relate to it at the moment - but also because it’s just stunning in every possible way. I’m talking about Josh Savage’s latest release “Someone to miss”, a really strong track that convinces with a great hook, beautifully crafted lyrics, and an authentic vocal performance. 

There are many songs about missing someone. Most of them are rather heartbreaking and sad. “Someone to miss” takes a different approach coming from a place of gratitude. “You know I hate to see you go / I count the days till you come home / Until then I'll reminisce / How lucky am I to have someone to miss?”. The song gives value and purpose to the feelings during our loved ones absence. They are a reminder of the beauty and joy that they bring into our life when they are there. It finds a beautiful balance between admitting the desire to be with someone but at the same time trusting them and wanting them to be free: “I want you all to myself / but not like a bird in a cage”. 

The vocals really set the tone for this lovely message. They never feel forced or overproduced and they are leaving space for a warm sense of intimacy. The arrangement creates a floating feel carried by a consistent beat that allows you to sway to the song. The whole arrangement does an incredible job at lifting and enhancing the song - always leaving its story and Josh Savage’s vocals on the center stage.

In these times where so many of us couldn’t travel, a lot of us have been separated from those we love for longer than usual. “Someone to miss” is a beautiful reminder that despite the distance we are lucky, because we are connected. It’s one of the singles of his upcoming album “Another Life”, to be released in February 2022. This might seem quite far away but… well, how lucky are we to have music to look forward to!

Lyrics

You turned my world upside down

The day you walked into my life

If only you could stick around

Not pass by like a butterfly

Your warmth touches my very soul

When you look into my eyes

If this is love I wouldn't know

But I'll go with it, I'll improvise

You know I hate to see you go

I count the days till you come home

Until then I'll reminisce

How lucky am I to have someone to miss?

Ooh ooh ooh

How lucky am I to have someone to miss?

You pulled me close kissed my darkness

Embraced me despite my flaws

Took in all of me regardless

And loved me for it all the more

You know I hate to see you go

I count the days till you come home

Until then I'll reminisce

How lucky am I to have someone to miss?

Ooh ooh

Someone to miss

Ooh

I wish you luck, wish you well

As I kiss your tears away

I want you all to myself

But not like a bird in a cage

You know I hate to see you go

I count the days till you come home

Until then I'll reminisce

How lucky am I to have someone to miss?

You know I hate to see you go

I count the days till you come home

Until then I'll reminisce

How lucky am I to have someone to miss?

Until then I'll reminisce

How lucky am I to have someone to miss?
