This beautiful, romantic, melodiously gliding orchestral pop meta-song, flush with swooning strings and yearning, is the title track heralding the Scottish multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter’s forthcoming new album out on 24 January 2025 via Bella Union. C Duncan comments with regard to love songs, this number “is about the weight they carry and the meaning we project onto them. They are so important in many ways, as they can conjure up all sorts of emotions. And yet so arbitrary, as they are actionless – just music and words woven together. At the end of the day, a love song is merely a gesture, but a gesture that we go back to time and time again.”
The album It’s Only A Love Song is available to preorder here. To explore and enjoy more by C Duncan, including his previous album, Alluvium (2022) see also the other embedded links below.
