I Promise I’ll Wait For You by TaniA Kyllikki is a song that sounds like a whisper of love that is transported over long oceans, whose rays cut the distance between people like a lighthouse shining through the fog to guide the lost ships to harbour. This ballad reaches the inner most fibres of the soul, and weaves the personal turmoil into a likeness of the long-suffering patience of love, and calls to mind the delicate strength needed to hold on to a valuable fragment of the past, as the currents of life strive to carry it off.
The vocals of TaniA go up with an amazing five-octave range, commanding but reassuring, like a great waterfall that carves marble, but provides shelter to the weary pilgrim in its arms. It is richly emotional, and it hurts in a personal way, and it takes you into the realms of belief and the inner power. The melody is beautiful with its graceful, haunting majesty, which flows so easily through the radiant piano phrases that shimmer like the entrance of morning upon rain-pearled leaves, and iridescent soundscapes and gentle rhythmic touches create a heartbeat that is both unearthly and grounding.
TaniA, who collaborates with her husband Rynellton, brings the effervescence of pop, the tenderness of soul, and the confessional candour of the singer-songwriter into a fine, authentic product, silken supportive harmonies that add layers of depth, as whispers in the depths of a sacred room. The production evokes the sense of an alien ecstasy, in which misfortune refines itself into the solidarity of shared toil, and invites us to recall how the unity of shared adversity can forge indestructible bonds, and arouses that familiar feeling of being when one is bound by the sense of devotion beyond the scope of space.
Being a British musician who has transferred the challenges of her entire life into a creative endeavour, TaniA is an electric performer who moulds timeless pieces that resonate deeply. It is not just music but a sanctuary that every person who is going through the challenges of love will find in this piece, it gives a renewed sense of belonging, a sanctuary that feels like finding a refuge after a rough and stormy journey - strength-giving, sincere, and deep.
