Review: "Sentimental" - Thomas Day


Sentimental by Thomas Day Cover Art

All the warmth and devotion that blossoms from a romantic love comes out in the meaning of Thomas Day’s song “Sentimental”. The speaker describes his love through the song, and the words are the way so many crave to be seen by their partner. The lyrics carry a glowing perspective, treating the love as something the speaker sees as holy, and hopes to be eternal. The words “I can’t love you just a little” begin the chorus with a sense of comprehensive and all-consuming love that cannot be minimized. The song explores the senses–scent, taste, sight, touch–to depict the complete adoration the speaker feels. It’s these small sensory details like “blueberry perfume” that add that personal touch and give us a look at who this partner is. This is the song to listen to on a lazy day with your partner, encouraging listeners to bask in the beauty of their love.



“Sentimental” is such a gentle sounding song, giving upbeat acoustic guitar and Thomas’s light, raspy vocals the chance to sink listeners into the bliss of genuine connection. Through the verse and chorus, the vocals hold a softer tone, and gain a soulful boldness at the end of the chorus, expressing an open passion that reflects the gratitude of the lyrics, “what a day to be alive when I’m looking in your eyes.” Strings and percussion join in through the song, layering in a way that conveys a comforting want and intensity, enhancing the emotion in the lyrics. As Thomas vocalizes near the end of the song, listeners can feel like his voice is reaching out, bringing a feeling of connectivity to the sound.
