A Heartfelt Dedication
In the vibrant world of music, few things resonate as deeply as a love song. Roland Orzabal, one half of the iconic duo Tears for Fears, recently shared the inspiration behind his touching new track. Reflecting on his journey, Orzabal recalls, “My wife Emily has been on at me for years to try and write her a love song. So eventually, I did it.” It was during a serene getaway in Hawaii that the magic unfolded.
Creative Spark in Hawaii
As the sun set over pristine waters, Orzabal found himself grappling with the elusive task of naming his creation. Each day, he sang over the backing track, pouring his heart into the melodies. However, a title continued to escape him. One fateful night, he reached out to the universe, asking for a sign. When the morning light came, it brought with it the beautiful title, “The Girl That I Call Home,” which his wife adores. What a sweet testament to love!
