“wheel” echoes the sentiment of life goes on like few tracks do. The cheery and melodic pop tune from Wotts just has an innate sense of freshness to it, a light-hearted air that just leaves you feeling happy with the way things are and just falling for the flow. With a decidedly delightful melody that has you in the best of moods, Wotts have a way to lift your spirits in such a joyful way.
While the melody and production are upbeat and happy-go-lucky, the lyrics delve into the theme of surrendering to what we can’t control and coming to terms with the inevitability of mortality. It’s a song that encourages us to embrace life and live in the present moment, reminding us that time is precious and we should make the most of it while we can. Even if mortality may seem grim, the present is a gift that we can’t take for granted. Simply enjoy the ride without being caught up in the fear of what’s to come.
