Shane O - Lean On Me (January 2018)

Ireland Records is quickly becoming one of my favourite ‘new’
record labels, and the song “Lean On Me” by Shane O is another musical reason
why!

Both artist and producer take to the studio to record this
song that shifts focus away from the hype (parties – girls – liquor) to life
through the eyes of people who are really experiencing hardship … the ones who
just need to hear an encouraging word from someone real.

With an acoustic intro, Shane sings “don’t worry about the
struggle or fight / fight with all of your might / you see when you’re not
string / lean on me / and when the journey seems long / lean on me / nah turn
me back or forsake you ….”

The truth of the matter is everyone you meet is going
through an issue / problem / struggle that they don’t want to tell you
about.  Songs like “Lean On Me” give them
the encouragement to know that they are not the only ones struggling, and there
is light at the end of the tunnel.



Let Shane O and Ireland Records know what you think of the
song.  Connect with them on IG @irelandrecords123
