Introduced by a wildlife soundscape – setting the sunny and happiness-filled vibe for the rest of the song – ‘A Moment of Sunshine’ soon flourishes on vintage-sounding piano and jangly guitars, further enhanced by eclectic instrumentation including deep horns and a selection of retro keys. An organ? yes, going a long way in characterising the song as an authentic and charming nugget of 60’s glory. The track is Jonny Ong’s latest effort, a vibrant record with a powerful chorus even echoing a veiled Oasis vibe, from time to time.
Ong’s vocals are absolutely on point, charming and filled with gravitas, accompanying the listener on an evocative journey through anthemic energy and arena-ready lyrical hooks. Aiming at the sense of freedom and liberation often found in the summer, ‘A Moment of Sunshine’ is simply an uplifting track, the type of gem that really just make you feel good.
Describing the meaning behind the song, Jonny Ong declares: “A Moment of Sunshine centres around a love that doesn’t always last, but the moment is beautiful, like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day.”
