What's Real

from Face To Face by Twelfth Day

/

about

This song sums up the broad theme of the album - to challenge societal norms and expectations. ‘What’s real to you is real’. It is for the people who are given a hard time by our often condemning society for being a little different. It’s about always considering everyone, and not dismissing those who may be perceived as being unusual in some way. These are the people that challenge us and we learn the most from. In broader terms it’s about always living with as much compassion as possible. The lyrics for the chorus came out of writing sessions for our last album, but were put on the back burner at the time. We came back to them, gave them a new melody and built the verses around them. The first half of the song flows between dancy instrumental sections and more reflective verses. We wanted the track to then progress with quite an epic, optimistic feel, with soaring strings and a choral wall of sound in the chorus, with an exciting harmonic journey.
