Have you ever noticed the synchronicities? The glitches in the matrix? Numbers repeating themselves? Or perhaps animals giving you a slight reminder of love, joy, and hope? Sometimes you’re out walking, and a single feather falls from the sky, and there’s not a bird in sight to show where it came from.
All of these small yet significant glimmers are captured in the anthem that is “Like a Feather.” Released on August 30, 2023, this song is not just music; it’s a journey into the mystical and the profound.
A Message of Connection and Hope
“I was feeling so alone and trying to connect so many dots from my perception of reality my whole life and this new world of senses and perceptions that I had forgotten and repressed. As the flood gates opened, so did the miracles. It was beautiful. My hope is to help others remember and give them comfort as they connect to the frequency of love,” Stokes shares.
In “Like a Feather,” SAM STOKES creates an emotional and spiritual bridge between her experiences and ours. Her lyrics touch on the universal longing for connection and understanding. The song is a reminder that we are not alone in our quest for meaning and that there is magic in the world waiting to be discovered.
A Glimpse Into Common Ground
“Like a Feather” is the fourth single to be released from Stokes’ debut album, “Common Ground,” set to launch in October 2023. The track encapsulates something indescribable—it’s the raw, tender, intimate moment of a soul entering its body.
As she explored her darkest demons and the brightest light within her, she decided to hit record at her home studio. “Common Ground” has the rage of a wildfire burning down whatever is in her way and the peace of a thousand-year-old monk, smiling as she learns her truth.
It is perfectly imperfect. It is an explosion of raw, unfiltered, and untethered energy. Stokes is honest, authentic, and, perhaps most importantly, hopeful. She commits to love again and again and again. She believes in the highest version of herself, the highest version of humanity, and the highest, most beautiful planet for us to live on.
A Gift of Reassurance
“I hope this song inspires those who are asking questions. The ones who are searching, maybe even feeling alone on their quest. It is my gift of reassurance and comfort as you put together the pieces of your reality and your life,” Stokes expands.
“Like a Feather” by SAM STOKES is more than a song; it’s a beacon of hope and a reminder of the interconnectedness of our experiences. Let the magic of this music fill your heart and soul, and as you listen, you’ll find yourself soaring “like a feather” on a journey of self-discovery and connection.
