This Is Your Time by Shervin Boloorian

This brand new single by Shervin Boloorian called This Is Your Time highlights the very real plight of those who are removed by war from their lands, and found themselves forced into a whole new realm with no fault of their own, like the singer and composer whose family had to escape the Iran/Iraq war, in a region of the globe, that like many others, is still in turmoil to this day for one reason or another.

This is one extremely beautiful moment, and something to be grateful for, as it is a truly powerful creation by an artist who captured the Global Peace Song Awards in 2020, and indeed this specific song, this brave new release, is deeply moving and transformative in tone and timbre, and is also lyrically superior in its content.

The soft vocals of Shervin Boloorian create a warm blanket of sound that you can allow to wash over you, inspired by a poem “Let this Little Girl Win” by Manal Omar, this song has a tenderness that is hard to match, and its sincerity is palpable, utilising Shervin as a multi-instrumentalist of great talent, with a Persian Ney Flute and a piano arrangement that smooths the way to a path of decided tranquillity and calm. At times the voice of the Shervin reminded me of the artist Mitten, with his kindly vocal vibrations, and I feel with ease this should be a huge hit single for the artist, and perhaps even more!

  1. Thank you for this spot on review, I love that you compared to Mitten, I had not thought of that but it is so right!
