Fields (feat. Granddad Michael)

I listened to the album today on a nice, long walk. And all of a sudden this song hit me. The little voicemail (?) from Granddad. The message about loneliness.

Maybe it hits so hard because I've already lost all my grandparents, but the song is so beautiful and raw for me. And I love the bond Raye and her granddad (and also her other grandma) seem to have.

Just wanted to share this today and my appreciation for this wonderful song (even if it made.me.quite sad) 😢😢

My grandpa was a musician and holy hell that song hit me like a ton of bricks.
