My Sunday Song – “Until I Found You” by Stephen Sanchez

For My Sunday Song #366, we are on Morgan’s 6th choice and this time is Stephen Sanchez’s sweet song “Until I Found You” off his 2022 album ‘Easy on My Eyes’. The song was released on September 1st 2021 and it went to #23 in the US and has been certified platinum multiple times over. Stephen wrote the song all by himself and isn’t cool when you have an artist that can write his own songs (yes that was a dig at some of her choices so far). There is a solo performance of the song and one with Em Beihold and both versions are just stellar. You can’t go wrong with either.

I usually talk about the song means, but Stephen knows best so I will let him discuss it…Stephen Sanchez shared with PLNK WIFI the story behind “Until I Found You” released on the 1st of September, 2021, “When I met my girlfriend Georgia, I was in the worst place ever. She was so loving and great to me though. I didn’t feel good enough for that, so I pushed her away. We spent some time apart. She was in Virginia. I was in California. A month before I moved to Nashville, we reconnected over the phone, I drove up, took her on a date, and we’ve been together ever since. I wrote ‘Until I Found You’ to let her know how much I love her, and to let her know I knew how much of an idiot I was when I let her go the first time.”

Musically, the song is so old-school with an old-50’s style sound and even a hint of The Beach Boys. It makes the song so warm and inviting and I have to admit I think it is quite awesome. That twangy guitar and those brilliant drum fills are nothing are so sweet and tender and match the emotion of the song. I really dig this one and thinks you have to really listen to it to appreciate what I have said and see for yourself.
