In the words of Christine Tarquinio: “The song was easy to write as I had a lot of time on my hands being in lockdown. I wrote the song with my guitar and as always, I came up with the chords and melody first and the lyrics once I decided on the theme of “one day we’ll be free” the song almost wrote itself. Being a mother is a huge influence on my music. You just want to do your best to show them how to navigate their way through life and hope that they succeed.”
LONG STORY SHORT: Christine Tarquinio's "You and Me" gives big "Walking On Sunshine" vibes. This track is an easy-listening, upbeat, uplifting song with simple production and a positive message.
