    A potent song about letting go that was the only independently released song Z95.3 in Vancouver has added in a year and got 8 solid weeks of radio play. Sparse arrangement and intense dynamics put Laura Doyle’s powerful vocals front and center.

    Story Behind the Song
    This is the second song Sean and I ever wrote together and the interesting thing is we
    wrote it about our ex’s. It was something he already had the music for but the melody
    and lyrical content was reworked extensively. At the time, I was still trying to
    unremember a certain music producer/keyboardist I had fallen for and was able to
    explore the cycle of letting go of someone I had some major attachment to. It strikes
    me now that the lyrics also fit many of my feelings about my father. This track has
    been incredibly healing for both me and tons of people who have met me or emailed
    their stories. Recording the grand piano was a fluke. We had a gig come into a
    studio Sean was working at in the summer of 2000 that got canceled. The owner
    came to us and said there was a freshly tuned piano around for the day if we had
    anything we wanted to record. We didn’t even have the lyrics yet. Sean did the
    whole song in one take with one small punch in. We joke that Let You go has it’s
    own angel since it was born by chance, licensed by a national TV show a week after
    it was finished and won the regional part of the National Songwriting competition.
    The lads at Banana Tunes (they write songs for lots of big names) have predicted
    that this is the song that will break me as a new artist. We’ll see...

    Lyrics
    Let You Go

    This is where my thoughts chase my tail
    this is where I can’t help myself
    and this is where I feel like I’ve failed again
    And this is where I want retaliation
    and if I could I’d steal your soul
    and this is where I stop...
    and I give in to love

    And this is where I say I will always love you
    and this is where I pray God be with you
    and this is where I hold on to love
    and let you go... and let you go

    This is where I would offer forgiveness
    and if I could I’d heal your soul
    and this is where I start again
    to love

    And this is where I say I will always love you
    and this is where I pray God be with you
    and this is where I hold on to love
    and let you go... and let you go

    And where you’re going I can’t know
    and how you’ll get there I can’t know
    and if you really loved me I’ll never know
    I’ll never know

    And this is where I say I will always love you
    and this is where I pray God be with you
    and this is where I hold on to love
    and let you go... and let you go
