Animal Souls, led by Michael Fisher, is a special music project that stands out. Michael, who has been making music for decades, only started recording and producing seriously in recent years, after retiring from his long job at Live Nation Entertainment. He made the change during the calm of the pandemic, and it’s given him the chance to team up with some amazing musicians from the Fraser Valley, BC, and beyond. With a few releases already out, “The Kids” is the 9th single from Animal Souls, adding to their collection of emotional songs.
“The Kids” carries a simple but strong message. It’s about innocence, change, and love. The song describes in detail a small town caught in a storm, both in the sky and in the heart. As the rain pours down, the adults freak out and get caught up in worry, while a group of kids just keeps playing, untouched by the chaos around them. They don’t fear the stranger who arrives in town either. It’s almost like they haven’t yet learnt the anxieties that come with adulthood. They live in a world where love and innocence lead them to face change head-on, without hesitation.
The Kids
The difference between the kids and adults says a lot. As we get older, we start to fear what we don’t know. We become more careful, protective, and sometimes even scared of things that seem unfamiliar. But the kids in the song remind us how nice it is to be open and trust without fear. They don’t question change or the stranger; they accept it with open hearts. They show us that love has the power to guide us through anything, even when the world feels uncertain.
In the song, the stranger represents love itself. Love, although sometimes intimidating or disruptive, has the ability to heal and lead us in the right direction. The children seem to understand this instinctively. They don’t question love or the changes it brings; they simply trust that it will show them the way. This idea—that love can help us find clarity, even in difficult times—is something we can all take to heart.
The music in “The Kids” really complements the message. With its warm, retro feel, the sounds of the organ and mellotron give the song a nostalgic, comforting vibe. And when the guitar solo kicks in, it feels like the music is echoing the song’s message—pushing through the storm and bringing a sense of hope and energy. It’s a beautiful mix of old and new, making the song feel timeless, just like the message of love and change it carries.
At its heart, “The Kids” is about trusting love, even when it feels a bit unsettling or confusing. Love can be strange, but it’s also what helps us get through life’s hardest moments. Like the kids in the song, we can learn to welcome change with open hearts, knowing love will always help us find our way.
In the end, “The Kids” is a beautiful reminder that love can help us get through change and uncertainty. Even when it feels like the world around us is a storm, love will guide us, helping us move forward with hope and trust. Animal Souls has given us a song that touches the heart, encouraging us to face life’s changes with the simple, open hearts of children.
