“Let It Be You” is one of RJ Gibb’s most heartfelt and melodic compositions — a song born from a place of emotional honesty and deep reflection. Written during a difficult period in RJ’s life, the song captures the vulnerability of longing for reconnection while embracing the courage to open up to love.
The inspiration for the track came to him late one evening, as RJ sat at his piano, reflecting on the love and loss he had experienced. With the soft glow of a lamp lighting the keys, he began to hum a melody that felt both haunting and hopeful. It all then seemed to pour straight from his soul.
Lyrically, RJ aimed to write something universal but personal, a declaration of love that anyone could relate to. The verses speak of time, chance, and the feeling that some connections are destined, even if the path is winding. He crafted the words with the same poetic sensitivity that runs through the Gibb legacy, blending classic songwriting with a modern edge.
Musically, “Let It Be You” evolved with layers of soft strings, grand piano, and warm harmonies.
RJ is confident that the video managed to capture the emotional tone he envisioned; subtle, sincere, and cinematic.
For RJ, this wasn’t just another song; it was a statement. A reminder that true love, even if we’ve lost someone forevermore, is everlasting.
