Someday -- Rob Thomas


  • Song: Someday

  • Artist: Rob Thomas

  • Album: Cradlesong

  • Rating: 4 Stars
Rob Thomas is well-known as the lead singer of top rock group, Matchbox 20.  However, he is also well-known for his critically acclaimed on-again off-again solo career.  Far from the nature of Thomas' last single, Diamonds, Someday is a wonderfully positive song about hope in the midst of adversity.
In Someday, Thomas is speaking to someone about the sadness in their life, and how they could live that way, or find a way to overcome their problems.  The main there of the song however, is more general and positive, speaking about the hope that can be found in the future.  Thomas talks about how when your life is better you can change the lives of others as well.  He also says that sometimes people don't realize how good it is possible for things to be, and that we should try and make it happen.
The lyrics aren't the song's only positive element.  Both the music and vocals have been performed in such a way as to fill one with a feeling of hope and positivity.  The piano is performed with an intricacy that blends with the simple pattern of the bass to create a powerful melody, beautiful to both the human ear and soul.  Thomas also employs the use of a choir, and orchestrates the final part of the song to sound as if the whole world is cathcing on to his message.  Someday is a beautiful song , seemingly capable of parting the dark clouds on the saddest of days.
