Song information
Hey everyone!

I’m back—well, 'sort of'. Thanks to the magic of SoundTrap, I’m able to collaborate remotely and keep the music alive!

Hubby and I have recently settled in Hamburg, Germany, but the wonders of technology mean I can jam online with Pietr and Gemma all the way in New Zealand. The time zone difference? Yeah, it’s brutal, but worth every late-night session.

Life’s been a bit of a whirlwind lately. My new job starts on March 3rd, so I’ve been knee-deep in unpacking and organising. But between all the chaos, I’ve carved out some "me" time, and here I am—back to doing what I love.

This next song is for all the 'Old-Fashioned Lovers' out there. A little ode to those who cherish romance in its purest form.

Pietr, my lyrical savior, helped refine the words during my bouts of brain fog. He also brought the melody and instrumentals to life. As for Gemma? She added her signature touch with the violin, mandolin, and her ethereal high harmonies.

And me? I’m on lead vocals, strumming some acoustic guitar to tie it all together.

Hope you enjoy this one—it’s as heartfelt as it gets.

Note: Congratulations to the Gemma and Pietr on their upcoming wedding xo

Lyrics
OLD FASHIONED LOVE
by Pietr Boleslaw and Mojca Czarka

Verse 1
They don’t make it like they used to, no fancy flair or show,
Just a quiet kind of steady, where the honest feelings grow.
Hand in hand through the seasons, weathered hearts that beat as one,
Old-fashioned love still lingers when the fleeting days are done.

Chorus
Here’s to the old-fashioned lovers,
Who hold on through the years.
Through the storms and the shadows,
They outlast time and tears.

Verse 2
No need for silver or gold rings, though the sparkle’s always there,
In the way their eyes meet softly, in the way they truly care.
They don’t need a thousand words, just a look is all they need,
Building lives on gentle whispers, planting roots from simple seeds.

Instrumental break

Verse 3
It’s not in the grand gestures, not in fleeting romance tales,
It’s the quiet, steady heartbeat that keeps them on the trail.
Through the cracks and through the weather, they find beauty in the scars,
Love that’s simple, love that’s timeless, under endless skies and stars.

Chorus
Here’s to the old-fashioned lovers,
Who hold on through the years.
Through the storms and the shadows,
They outlast time and tears.

Chorus repeats and its the end.

Absolutely stunning, and 100% radio ready. From the gorgeous vocals and harmonies, to the heartfelt lyrics, to the pro performances on pedal steel, mandolin, violin et al, just an all-around gem that's clearly had a lot of time, care and love poured into it.

Absolutely beautiful song.  Wonderful performances.  The whole structure of the compositions works so well with some really great creative turns that keep it so engaging.  Unfortunately, the track seems to cut out just a little early before completely comes to an end.
