    “This feeling that your life seemed complete before, but now it’s full of color, it’s more vivid than you could ever imagine, because someone new came into it,” Stephen Rodgers, host of Resounding Verse, says on the subject of the title track to Rhiannon Giddens’ new album, You’re the One, a song that was inspired by a moment Giddens had with her son not long after he was born. “I find this song so moving because I can relate to the experience it describes, and I think many people listening to the song will have a similar connection to it. But it’s not just what the song is about that moves me so much. It’s also how the words are constructed, and how the music and words meld together.” You can hear the episode here.
