A hauntingly beautiful new chapter in the story of love
There are songs that sound good, and then there are songs that feel like they carry someone’s entire heart inside them. Ezra Vancil’s newest single, “Babylove,” is certainly the latter. Released on October 1st, 2025, and leading his upcoming double album “Morning and Midnight,” this track invites listeners to step quietly into a story of heartbreak, hope and the long road back to love. Recorded in a cosy cabin deep in the East Texas woods, the song carries a wonderful rustic warmth. You can practically hear the room breathing. Soft strings lift the melody like sunlight peeking through trees, while a steady heartbeat of drums keeps the emotion grounded. Lori Martin’s gentle harmonies wrap Ezra’s voice in comfort as he sings about love that has been broken but not forgotten. His vocals tremble with vulnerability, reminding us that healing is rarely a smooth journey.
What makes “Babylove” especially striking is how real it feels. Ezra does not hide behind fancy production or perfect polish. Instead, every note is soaked in honesty. It is music made by someone who has loved deeply, lost painfully and is now gathering the courage to love again. Influenced by the raw spirit of the late Chris Whitley, Ezra lets emotion lead the way. You can hear the hurt, yes, but you can also hear the spark of something new beginning. “Babylove” is the first step in a bigger story that will unfold over time, like reading a heartfelt diary one page a month. The “Midnight” side of the album explores heartbreak’s darkest corners, while the “Morning” side brings back the light. Just as night turns slowly into day, Ezra shows that love can rebuild what once fell apart.
This song is perfect for anyone who has ever felt their heart crack a little and still dared to hope. It is intimate, sincere and beautifully human. In true British fashion, we might call it a quiet stunner — the kind of song that settles into your chest and refuses to leave. Put on your headphones, close your eyes and let “Babylove” remind you that even in heartbreak, love keeps blooming.
