Brett Matthews’ song “Lucky Ones” embraces the way love fulfills us so completely. Material things have nothing to do with how fortunate we are; it all comes down to love. This song is truly something special. It reminds listeners why they have every reason to be happy. Sometimes we can get caught up in having the nicest things or being in the best place, but simple analogies like “penthouse with an ocean view or a one-bedroom shoebox, I’m still loving you” reminds us that any place can be the nicest place if we have love. The lyrics express the gratitude the speaker feels that their love is so grounding, with powerful words like “they live the fast life but we took it slow”. “Lucky Ones” isn’t just showing how the speaker feels about his partner; it is a message to listeners to embrace all the wonderful things love can be.
With ambient percussion, romantic guitar and uplifting electronic instrumentals, “Lucky Ones” brings the encouraging lyrics to life. Brett’s smooth and catchy vocals spread warmth through the verses and bring a groovy, high, and energetic tone to the chorus. The bridge combines soft electronic instrumentals with the insistent and passionate vocals, before diving into a final chorus with layered vocals that hone in on that upbeat and floating feeling that love gives. If you’re anything like me, after the first chorus, you’re going to need to sing along. Beyond the way the tune sticks in your head, it feels so incredible to embrace the lyrics for yourself.
