Fans of instrumental-driven, easy-listening tracks focused on melody and storytelling will identify with “Falling Dream.” The song, though rapid and exhilarating at times, seamlessly shifts to a softer, soulful feel, further illustrating the song’s theme of transition. It also highlights the need for the ongoing presence of love from family and friends: “There is nothing / there is nothing / no thing, but the love / the love we’re made of.” These lyrics are something that most can relate to, prompting them to reflect on their own experiences with changes in their lives.
Other significant lyrics in “Falling Dream” include, “I am your mirror / I am your passenger / But a star is not so bright / When you’re looking straight into it,” which echo feelings of self-reflection. There are moments when we need to take a deep look within ourselves and realize we need to change for one reason or another – “Falling Dream” perfectly encapsulates these emotions.
“Falling Dream” is Fastriser’s sixth release this year. Following “Falling Dream” have been the releases of singles “Cartoon,” “What If,” and “The Invention of Zero.” The band consists of Alex McMahon, Conor Murray, and Bobby McMahon. Rachel Walsh collaborates with McMahon on backing vocals on this track. “Falling Dream” is available on all major music streaming platforms now.
