Whatever the state of your love life, Bruno Major’s got a song for that. Ever since the English singer-songwriter released his debut album A Song for Every Moon in 2017, he’s filling our playlists with melancholy love songs. Don’t get us wrong — not all his songs are about romantic love, but there’s no denying that his music just hits differently when it comes to matters of the heart.
Karpos is bringing Bruno Major back to Manila this September, so whether you’re single, heartbroken, or happily in love, here are 8 Bruno Major songs that will perfectly capture your current relationship status.
“I don’t know who you are
But I’ll save you a seat”
Here, Major creates an image of anticipation and yearning, making it a serenade fit for the hopeful romantic awaiting their destined love. He captures the poignant longing of wanting something so pure and beautiful, making it the perfect track for anyone craving that special connection.
“I know it’s not very cool
Standing here, serenading like a fool
But I don’t care
I’ll gladly be a fool for you”
In this track from his 2020 album To Let A Good Thing Die, Major sings about the often uncool lengths we go to impress someone we’re interested in. It’s a refreshing reminder to not be afraid to put ourselves out there. Let this song inspire you to channel your inner soppy romantic and make that grand gesture of love.
“Don’t you tell me that it wasn’t meant to be
Call it quits or call it destiny
Just because it won’t come easily
Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try”
This moving ballad is about the struggles of a relationship and the decision to either give up or fight for it. The lyrics capture the raw emotions and doubts that come with trying to make love work. It’s a reminder that relationships aren’t always easy, and that when hard times come, that doesn’t mean it’s not worth the fight.
“Children cry and laugh and play
Slowly hair will turn to gray
We will smile to end each day
In places we won’t walk”
In this hauntingly beautiful track, Major mourns a relationship’s end. Each verse creates an image of a life envisioned but never lived, places they once dreamed of walking together but never will. If you’ve experienced the loss of love and are struggling to come to terms with it, this will probably resonate.
“If only we knew that the moon won’t turn blue
That I won’t last forever, and neither will you
‘Cause when I close both my eyes, it’s your face that I see
So if not now, when can we be?”
In this soulful and heartfelt track, Major sings about the complexities of a relationship without labels, or perhaps loving someone who refuses to define what you are. There’s a sense of longing and frustration in the lyrics, but also a deep desire to make things work. It’s a song for anyone caught in that gray area of love and not sure where it’s heading.
“Lately, I find myself out gazing at stars
Hearing guitars like someone in love
Sometimes the things I do astound me
Mostly whenever you’re around me”
This dreamy and romantic track is all about that state of mind when you’re falling for someone. It’s a song that will have you daydreaming about that special person and all the ways they make you feel.
“Most of my life I’ve been on my own
Whatever I did, I did it alone
And then she came along, now I’m not alone
Since she chose me”
This charming and heartfelt track captures the giddiness of falling in love and finding that one person who chooses to be by your side. It’s a song for anyone experiencing the honeymoon phase, feeling grateful to have finally found love.
“Dumb conversations
We lose track of time
Have I told you lately
I’m grateful you’re mine?”
“Nothing” celebrates the joy and contentment found in simple, ordinary moments shared with a loved one. It’s about the magic of finding bliss in the simplicity of everyday life with someone special. If you identify with the song, congratulations on finding your happily ever after. Sana all.
