#75 Salem al Fakir, "It's Only You (Part II)"
Shouldn't tell you all I got inside but I just need to get it out Let me say it if you don't mind It's only you I think about
A reworked version of an album track, "It's Only You (Part II)" would, in a just world, bring Swedish singer-songwriter Salem al Fakir the sort of success "With Every Heartbeat" brought Robyn. With a new backing track inspired by the gentle side of dance but with piano and beautiful strings, the song has become completely enchanting, a delicate but not fully ballad love song that makes the world feel like a place worth celebrating. It's a song of pure undiluted quality, and the shortest way to sum it up is this: there's magic in it.
I'm still struggling to come up with the adjectives it deserves! I can't thank you enough for introducing me to it.
Paul, I'd like to claim credit...but it's all thanks to Europe Crazy. I love that Bobby loves it too, though--it's been great to see it written about on DSTP!
Thanks for the credit - I just want to spread the word about Salem's music because he really is a major talent. Keep on visiting Planet Salem for all the news about this fabulously talented artist.
Delighted that Bobby loves the song too, and I love what he wrote about it on DSTP.
