First broadcast for the University Boat Race, ‘Stronger’ is an anthem about endurance in the face of hardship. I was a Cambridge oarsman. Rowing taught me all about pushing my pain threshold and learning to live at my limits every day, which has equipped me for times of stress. I wrote this song to inspire a friend who was very low. It was also the first co-write with James who gave me some chords to write a top-line. The song has been featured on Comic Relief, adopted by various charity compilations and won an award in the International Songwriting Competition. The video for Stronger, created by Canadian animator Theodore Ushev, was based on his award-winning animation ‘Walk On By’ and was a collaboration fulfilled purely over the internet. The video follows Everyman’s journey through life’s ups and downs. It gives perspective. Theodore followed this up with an extraordinary animation for another song ‘White Dove’.

Vye) Miles and miles ahead to go Rain may pour and wind may blow Higher mountains you will climb Go on Taking one step at a time Come on Though your weary body ache And though you ask what it will take And though your head keeps saying no The more you tread the more you grow The more you know Oh Breathe it out and breathe it in And don’t give in Don’t give in Yeah Miles and miles you will have been Mountain views you will have seen And though it felt like a bitter pain Come on All you had you had to gain Strong, getting stronger Pain, pain no longer And so, still you grow Breathe it out and breathe it in Breathe it out and breathe it in And don’t give in Don’t give in Stronger Stronger Give it all, give everything Give it out and don’t give in Breathe it out and breathe it in Breathe it out and breathe it in Breathe it out and breathe it in Breathe it out and breathe it in Before you know it, you could win

Lyrics for STRONGER (Words D. Vye)

Miles and miles ahead to go
Rain may pour and wind may blow
Higher mountains you will climb
Go on
Taking one step at a time
Come on

Though your weary body ache
And though you ask what it will take
And though your head keeps saying no
The more you tread the more you grow
The more you know
Oh
Breathe it out and breathe it in
And don’t give in
Don’t give in
Yeah

Miles and miles you will have been
Mountain views you will have seen
And though it felt like a bitter pain
Come on
All you had you had to gain

Strong, getting stronger
Pain, pain no longer
And so, still you grow

Breathe it out and breathe it in
Breathe it out and breathe it in
And don’t give in
Don’t give in

Stronger
Stronger
Give it all, give everything
Give it out and don’t give in
Breathe it out and breathe it in
Breathe it out and breathe it in
Breathe it out and breathe it in
Breathe it out and breathe it in

Before you know it, you could win

Or a new beginning. Maybe ‘Wings’ could have been placed at the end of the album, but the sequencing flows only up from its lowest, broken point. Being close to that point was a period of epiphany for me which made me stronger. Hope springs. But seeing loved ones lose hope through infirmity or old-aged loneliness is hard to square with a hopeful outlook. ‘Wings’ is that call for the need to finish, or somehow to re-begin. I met co-composer David Lowe at TV music events as he had composed the BBC News music and I had composed the Sky News music. I told him I was looking for musical sketches to inspire seeds for Public Symphony songs and he played me a bunch of music cues. These string chords began life in a poetry TV series, and I loved the feel, so I took his samples and Logic arrangement away with me to re-work. The angelic soprano guest, Natasha Marsh, became my wife. WINGS (Words D.Vye) I am spent I am down I am lost and if I’m found Heal me heal me My heart sings for no things Give me light Give me wings I am worn I am torn Give me end give me dawn Take me take me My heart sings for such things Give me light Give me wings Give me wings

WINGS (Words D.Vye)
I am spent I am down
I am lost and if I’m found
Heal me heal me
My heart sings for no things
Give me light
Give me wings
I am worn I am torn
Give me end give me dawn
Take me take me
My heart sings for such things
Give me light
Give me wings
Give me wings
