There It Is

Finding Love's True Compass

Shalamar's song "There It Is" is a jubilant celebration of finding true love after a long and uncertain journey. The lyrics convey a sense of relief and joy at finally discovering a deep and meaningful connection with another person. The repeated phrase "There it is" signifies the moment of realization and recognition of this profound love, which had eluded the singer for so long. The song captures the essence of a love that feels destined and right, as if all previous experiences were mere preparations for this ultimate union.

The lyrics delve into the singer's past misconceptions about love, admitting that despite thinking they understood it, they were actually clueless until meeting their significant other. This revelation underscores the transformative power of true love, which brings clarity and fulfillment that was previously missing. The metaphor of sailing in the "sea of love" highlights the aimless search and the eventual, almost serendipitous, encounter with the right person. The imagery of light guiding a ship to land further emphasizes the idea of finding direction and purpose through love.

The song also touches on the idea of mutual discovery and shared experiences. The line "And it feels so good that you and I can go together" suggests that the journey is not just about finding love but also about growing and moving forward together. The notion of love as a guiding force, something that can be trusted and relied upon, is a central theme. The repeated affirmations of "this time I'm not wrong" and "we got a love that's so strong" reinforce the confidence and certainty that come with finding a true soulmate.

Shalamar, known for their smooth blend of R&B, soul, and funk, brings a vibrant and uplifting energy to this song. Their musical style, characterized by catchy melodies and harmonious vocals, perfectly complements the song's message of joyous discovery and enduring love.
