about

The song “Argue” is the result of collaboration between two artists – Russian DIY singer and songwriter Rita Kolesnikova and American artist Matt Morris a.k.a. Ivo Hutto. They met over Facebook many years ago and found a lot in common – personally and musically. This naturally led to their musical collaboration.

“Argue” is an atmospheric mellow piano song arranged using instruments such as saxophone, gong, banjo, various synths and powerful percussion – which all together create a mysterious, wild tribal-ish atmosphere. At the same time, light female and male vocals give the composition a feeling of something sublime.

The song is a praise of God and His creations. It’s about realizing how small we really are to understand God’s will and His ways. This is a turning point for the one on the path to faith and acceptance.

lyrics

There’s a man by my shoulder
Doesn’t make a sound
Although I cannot see him
He’s always around
And he knows all the secrets
I’ve been hiding so well
No need to make an effort
To stay in hell, yes
Stay in hell, yes
Stay in hell, yes
Stay in hell

Who am I to argue about the
Beauty of the river
The purest flake of snow
Who am I to argue about the
Power of the mountains and
The Beauty of this world
The power of the mountains
And the beauty of this world

There’s a man right in front of them
Wishing them well
They will not believe him
Won’t fall under his spell
And he tells all the stories
They don’t want to know about
But somehow there is something
That just leaves no doubt, yes
Leaves no doubt, yes
Leaves no doubt, yes
Leaves no doubt

Who am I to argue about the
Beauty of the river
The purest flake of snow
Who am I to argue about the
Power of the mountains and
The Beauty of this world

Who am I to argue about the
Beauty of the river
The purest flake of snow
Who am I to argue about the
Power of the mountains and
The beauty of this world

The power on the mountains
And the beauty of this world
