When we get a submission from an artist who scores a point with each release, we are always overexcited. I believe this is the case every time I see Dom Malin's name in our huge queue. And each time, the same thing happens: palpitations and the excitement of discovering a new masterpiece.
Because Dom Malin is one of those artists who has already set the bar for quality very high in his previous releases, whether with the singles "Winter's Home" or "Eye of the Storm" or his "Something Never Said. , Pt. 1" EP. When a musician reaches such a level, one can be tempted to think that the artist has reached the maximum of his potential ... well no.
"Yesterday's Love" hooked me from the first seconds of the intro.
The melody of the first verse is amazing and Dom's voice sends exactly the right emotions at the right time. When the chorus comes, we take another slap and we understand all the genius of this little guy from Birmingham. Then again, the melody is incredibly catchy and the emotion continues to rise, especially when the vocal harmonies make their appearance.
It's already been ten days that we received the song and we can not do without it. “Yesterday's Love” has a pretty supernatural addictive power and will speak to all those who have known a love that suddenly ends and sometimes leaves us in total disarray, filled with questions. And often our first reaction, and it's human after all, is to hang on and still believe in it, even when it's completely screwed up. To stop loving someone overnight is probably the hardest task ever.
And the song wonderfully explores the melancholy and the glimmer of hope that come together in these moments.
The genius of writing, Dom Malin still surprises. The music video is exactly at the same quality level: stunning.
This artist has already been featured in several of our radio shows, including "Why Doesn't Everyone Know These Songs" with Luna, and "Indie Top 39 Selection" with Dov, and is played several times a day, so we have no doubt that our radio listeners will appreciate this new gem. For us, this is already one of the best songs of the year, so far.

Lyrics
Walk with me, in the fading light
Shadows of us dance out of time
Wondering, as if in a dream
oh is there room for us to breathe
I saw the island
I saw the sea
I saw the waves kissing the beach
I saw footsteps in the sand
Walking away from where they began
Caught in the middle, stuck in a rut
Caught in-between yesterday's love
I’m all out of anger, I’m all out of trust
Caught in-between yesterday's love
We had a story, but you had a plan
Every word spoke crushed in your hand
Hope turned to lightning, a flash and we're done
I don't know how we lasted so long
I saw the island
I saw the sea
I saw the waves kissing the beach
I saw footsteps in the sand
Walking away from where they began
Caught in the middle, Stuck in a rut
Caught in-between yesterday's love
I’m all out of anger, I’m all out of trust
Caught in-between yesterday's love
Story of us, not meant to be
Family of two, soon to be three
Watching the roots tangle and tear
All that we have is her love to share
Caught in the middle, Stuck in a rut
Caught in-between yesterday's love
I’m all out of anger, I’m all out of trust
Caught in-between yesterday's love
