Scott Walker Shares a Heartfelt Story with "This Is What Love Can Feel Like"
Coming out of Wichita Falls, Texas, singer-songwriter Scott Walker offers one of his most heartfelt and emotionally resonant releases yet in “This Is What Love Can Feel Like”. Written, recorded, and produced in its entirety in his home studio, Walker demonstrates his ability to combine raw emotion and sonic craftsmanship. As a musician and Active Duty member of the United States Air Force, where he is stationed at Sheppard Air Force Base, Walker infuses discipline, empathy, and authenticity into the song’s every note, creating a song that is incredibly personal but relatable to those who hear it.
"This Is What Love Can Feel Like" contains a powerful story relating to healing and reconnection. Inspired by true stories, the song provides a narrative about a woman who experienced abuse and emotional trauma but finds comfort and genuine love later. Walker uses a narrative to evoke feelings of hope and transformation; as love, when offered with authenticity and patience, has the capacity to reconstruct what was lost. The strength of Walker’s lyrical honesty is the emotional core of the song, allowing the listener to personally connect with the story, as they may have also experienced similar sorrows.
The song represents a breath of fresh air away from traditional pop-rock. Instead of adhering to a typical verse-chorus-verse pattern, Walker utilizes harmonies, transitions, tension, and other momentum that takes listening to a next level. The song’s final push is a lush burst of acoustics and textured singing that feels like an auditory and emotional release; a release that seems to come from a place of coming to terms with what real love can feel like.
He chooses to highlight echoes of Dashboard Confessional, Goo Goo Dolls, and Third Eye Blind, mixing early 2000s alternative feeling with 2020’s sensibility for production value. Walker’s wide-open vocals convey a sincere authenticity that delivers honest emotional content that goes straight to your heart. His expressive manipulation of vocals and layering suggests an individual who is working every day to become the very best artist he can be.
“This Is What Love Can Feel Like” is a message from an artist who believes in the healing, connecting, and changing power of music, not just another song. It reminds us, in a very bold yet beautiful way, that love in the purest sense of the word can feel like the peace after the storm.
