About this Playlist
music discovery on our musicto Monday playlist
Each week, our global creator community listens to tracks sent through our musicto artist submission form. And each week we add our favorites to our musicto Monday playlist. With every update of this music discovery playlist, we invite one musicto curator from our social network to choose a band or musician from our artist submissions to put in the light. This time, music curator Maria puts the whimsical nature of Steven Sedalia into the light.
Steven Sedalia in the musicto Light
The sounds of Steven are Love stories to be guided by. Here he captures the heart of his expression for all to take part in…
Most of what I write are love songs, yet the records I’ve published prior to this release have featured mostly songs of spiritual exploration and wonder. On the great adventure toward God, an overwhelming love develops like a raincloud over a desert. These songs are the rain on what used to be the desert of my heart. Half of the revelation is the transformation as a result of giving Love. These songs are an attempt at giving back to what has always been there for me: a Love that is eternal. Sometimes I think I see the world through love songs. It seems to be what comes from my experiences, joyful or sorrowful, bleak or blissed, hopeless or ecstatic, there’s a love song that comes from it. This record, Love For You, is a collection of a few of those moments.
The climb up the mountain seeking the mystery is laced with fear. The fountain is not hidden behind glitter, shine, and all things nice. It is buried in the deepest place. In the darkest caves, trust unfolds a glimmer, the sound of an echo of flowing love, submission to the still small voice, slogging through the aches listening to the silence, hearing in it the beckoning of the Architect of All, a beautiful design appears that is so magnificent that it might be called perfect, in this place the cosmos flip back and the lowest becomes the highest. Blame turns to forgiveness. Sorrow turns to gratitude. The suffering becomes the saving. The broken become the whole. The death becomes the life. The love song becomes all that I have. In that Everlasting Word, we are faint but wonderful vibrations contributing to creation in fulfillment of our responsibility as it was bestowed upon us by the Great Author. In sight and sound of the Eternal Wonder, I am nothing, but I am loved. I am nothing, but I love…
Maria has found listening itself to take the shape of deep rooted Love. In return she is here to reflect upon the Love that is held in the hands,heart and home of Steven. These are words that rose from the listening…
what would it be like to find each other in mutual blessing
in a truthful entanglement with all that we are
if I could kiss the earth it would be on the cheek because it requires the gentlest kind of intimacy
if I could speak of love as often as possible it would be a triumph worth life itself
there is a place for you in the heart of everything and I will find myself there for as long as I have breath within me
i’ve come to find the light that lives in afternoon water is the richest of them all and I want every moment to be colored by this depth of natural contentment
i’ve always longed to be a heart shaper
a listener
a savior
a sign of golden wholeness already within
i want to grow to know the medicine that I am
to be the one that awe is inspired by
to be forgiven
not by another’s heart but my own
here lives the mutual blessing
here life is all for love
for you
