A deeply meaningful and personal episode, ‘Place in the Sun’ is packed with existential questions, philosophical revelations and ethical dilemmas, something that deeply relates to the curious, eclectic life of its author, American songstress Adrienne Levay. Hailing from Canada, the talented creative and scholar spent her life searching for a higher purpose, looking for an overarching belief system that could justify our very own existence, while maintaining a fair, judgment-free, and kind outlook on the world around us.
At its most basic dimension, ‘Place in the Sun’ seeks to inspire keen listeners into looking at life with a sense of wonder, truly getting to the bottom of our identities and role in this planet. The song is deeply tied with Levay’s religious experiences through the years, from her early conventional Christian belief to a more kaleidoscopic and holistic view towards the divine.
Originally being released as a live version back in April, ‘Place in the Sun’ now gains a proper studio recording, emerging as a soothing, vulnerable piece, one that informs a cathartic and poignant listening experience. Adrienne’s gentle and elegant vocals are a perfect match for such a powerful single, truly getting the lyrical message across. Speaking about the inspiration behind ‘Place in the Sun’, Levay explains: “This song was written as an offering of hope, to myself and perhaps others. This song is a call to awakening and a celebration of this life.”
