Make A Little

Midland's song 'Make A Little' is a heartfelt anthem that speaks to the importance of love and connection in a world that often feels overwhelming and exhausting. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the daily grind, describing life as a 'hard living, tail kicking trip' and a 'back breaking, soul taking road.' Despite these challenges, the song suggests that love can be a powerful antidote to the stresses of life. By turning off the lights and focusing on each other, the couple in the song finds a way to create their own sunshine in the night.

The chorus emphasizes the idea that there's 'just not enough love in the world,' urging the couple to 'make a little' love to not only enrich their own lives but also to potentially make the world a better place. The use of phrases like 'turtle dove' and 'dixie land delight' adds a touch of Southern charm and nostalgia, evoking a simpler, more romantic time. The repetition of the idea that 'it all comes down to you and me' underscores the song's central message: in the end, love and human connection are what truly matter.

Midland's musical style, which blends traditional country with modern influences, complements the song's themes perfectly. The laid-back, yet earnest delivery of the lyrics makes the message feel genuine and relatable. The song encourages listeners to prioritize love and intimacy over the distractions and pressures of everyday life. By doing so, it suggests that we can find joy and meaning even in the midst of a 'clock punching, cash crunching' existence. 'Make A Little' is a reminder that love is a powerful force that can help us navigate the complexities of life and find happiness in the simplest of moments.
