A British duo, Love is Enough, released a single entitled Love Is Enough. The song is about a couple in grief following a miscarriage.
The music is Alternative Pop. It’s a ballad with a soulful rhythm.
It starts slowly with some piano, and then it picks up in tempo to express the profoundly mixed emotions that one feels following a difficult period – in this case, a miscarriage. The music is bolder, starting with the passages “I wanna Find a Place to Run” and “No I won’t give up – Till I find -A better place for us to run,” representing hope. The beat goes up and down at precise moments to demonstrate the fluctuation of emotions. The composition is well-thought-out and well-structured.
Cameron’s voice is soft and soulful. He sings with sadness and courage about the experience he and his wife had. Amidst the grief, He feels hopeful that things will get better.
The lyrics cover the complex topic of miscarriage. The title represents how 1 in 4 couples experience the difficulty of a miscarriage, neonatal or infant loss. The song describes grief during this time but also, with time, a sense of hope things will get better. It’s a relatable subject that needs more discussion. It’s courageous of the duo to write a song about miscarriage and the following grief. There’s a lovely humanity and vulnerability. When I read Cam and Nicole’s story about their experience with miscarriage on their YouTube channel, the song had an even more profound meaning. I’m sending love to the couple.
The single 1 in 4 is available.
My heart goes to couples who have experienced or are experiencing a miscarriage. I’m sending you all lots of love in this difficult time.
