Canadian and Québécois singer Marc Dupré released a new single, This Is My Life. The song is about owning up to who we are with confidence. Marc Dupré, Michaël Vigneault, and Nelson Minville are the songwriters of this dynamic song.
The music is Pop. It starts with a smooth guitar line that gradually builds in tempo as percussion enters. The song has an upbeat sound that cheers up a listener when they hear it – perfect for the official start to Summer on June 21 (in the Northern Hemisphere). The composition consists of a beautiful, wavy rhythm, favourable for dancing. It ends with a lovely guitar fade-out. It parallels another Marc Dupré’s 2013 single, Un coup sur mon cœur (A shot to my heart). It also reminds me of the Backstreet Boys’ single The One and N’Sync’s single I’ll Be Good For You, but with a French Pop twist. Marc Dupré, Michaël Vigneault, and Nelson Minville did an excellent job capturing the tune’s nuances through tempo changes and an incredible team of musicians.
Marc Dupré’s voice is soft, but also full of passion. He sings with love, joy and pride about his origins. He conveys those profound emotions in his beautiful vocal style and his dynamic energy.
The lyrics are sentimental. The song has detailed verses and a simple chorus (repeating This Is My Life). The verses tell the story of a man proud of his roots and career, plus his determination and resilience. It’s full of hope, self-love and peace of mind. The song’s storytelling is profound, with poetic lyrics. Marc Dupré, Michaël Vigneault, and Nelson Minville did a phenomenal job telling a heartfelt story about a man’s determination and confidence in who he is as a person and how he has evolved to get to where he is, arriving at a sense of peace with his life. The detailed verses are beautifully written and genuine, expressing love, joy and gratitude. The lyrical simplicity is perfect for the song’s vibe and story.
The single This Is My Life is available.
