That feeling, that connection, became the core of the song. It’s all about those moments when you meet someone and feel an immediate connection, like you've known them your entire life. Those special moments are rare, and I wanted to capture that. Writing this song was a very personal experience. It was about taking a feeling and turning it into something that others could relate to and enjoy. I dug deep and tried to express the whirlwind of emotions that come with falling in love. The lyrics are straightforward, focusing on the feelings of attraction, the excitement, and the hope that comes with finding someone special. I wanted the lyrics to be relatable, even if the specifics of the situation were different. I put a lot of emphasis on the feeling of being completely captivated by someone. It’s that instant draw, the pull you feel when you meet someone who you just click with. That's really the essence of "Olive Eyes." I aimed for a blend of vulnerability and energy.

The Musical Influences and Production

When it came to the musical influences for "Olive Eyes," I drew inspiration from a few different sources. I wanted to create a track that was both soulful and indie, with a nod to the timeless sounds of Motown. I listened to a lot of classic soul artists, such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, and The Temptations. I studied the way they used harmonies, the energy of their rhythm sections, and the overall warmth of their productions. These artists taught me a lot about building emotional depth and musical storytelling. I also looked at some contemporary indie artists who blend soul elements, such as Leon Bridges and Michael Kiwanuka. I really enjoyed how they bring a modern sensibility to classic sounds. My goal was to take the best elements of all of these and create something unique. During the production phase, I had a specific vision in mind: I wanted the song to sound warm, inviting, and full of life. I began by working on the arrangement. I started with a simple drumbeat and a bass line, then built the track layer by layer. I added a catchy guitar riff, some smooth keyboard chords, and a horn section to give it more depth. The goal was to create a full, rich sound that supports the vocals and lyrics. The recording process was a collaborative effort. I worked with some talented musicians who brought their creativity to the project. The live instruments really helped to give the track a natural feel, which was essential to the vibe. I also paid close attention to the mix. It was important to balance the different elements so that everything came together perfectly. I wanted the vocals to be clear and emotional, while the instruments provided a strong foundation. I aimed for a balanced sound that allowed each part to shine. I spent a lot of time on the details, from the choice of instruments to the subtle use of effects. I wanted every element to be carefully considered and intentional. I believe that these details are what make a song truly special. I hope the final product reflects all of the time and care that went into it.
