Good Day Noir Family,
Paul McCann is entertaining us with a new cool single and this is what I think about it.
Love Is All That Matters is Paul McCann’s Single
The guitar arpeggio of this song immediately hooked me.
A psychedelic atmosphere that reminded me of the 70s. The female and male voices blend perfectly and create a magical atmosphere.
While listening to this beautiful track I imagined myself driving a Volkswagen Westfalia toward Woodstock together with a group of Hippies.
The sense of freedom that Love Is All That Matters instills is amazing. Listening to this song is like finding yellowed polaroids in a drawer and reliving those beautiful memories.
A nostalgic but hopeful tune that makes you see fields of sunflowers and blue sky. Paul McCann with his music shows you the beautiful part of life … that of strong emotions worth living for.
Love Is All That Matters is a perfect song to start 2023 with the right spirit.
Love Is All That Matters is Paul McCann’s Single Out Now!

Love Is All That Matters is Paul McCann’s Single
‘Love is all that Matters’ is a more folky track compared to McCann’s previous singles which were more power pop. It is a more gentle, soft and delicate sound with Paul’s powerful distinctive vocals immediately drawing the listener in, the track also features stunning vocals from Sylvie Lewis and glistening guitars from Gary Lucas. The song leaves a lasting impression and is a fantastic follow up to McCanns previous releases before he launches the album in February.
