Review: "Happy That I Met You" - Drew Schueler


Happy That I Met You by Drew Schueler Cover Art

The experiences that break us apart make us who we are, and Drew Schueler's song "Happy That I Met You" gives an uplifting perspective to this truth. With a beautifully inspiring message of moving on, the lyrics dive into the hurt the speaker felt after a relationship. Calling their ex "a pressure point", resonating with anyone who understand the raw and weak vulnerability of a breakup. Spinning that vulnerability into a positive, this song will encourage you to feel gratitude for the struggles you have gone through. Whether you're clinging to the pain of a breakup or hoping to see the brighter side of things, this track will inspire you with its perspective of growth.



Hurt and healing emerge through the cinematic sound of "Happy That I Met You". Drew's soulful vocals are incredibly expressive, and will take you through heartache and relief with his tone. Blending soothing piano with atmospheric electronic instrumentals, a somber mood starts the song. The sound tells a story, moving from a calmer, hazy sense of heartache to genuine understanding, and finally to an uplifting melody. Percussion wakes the soulful journey of the lyrics, and various instrumentals layer different emotions into the song. Guitar in the second verse brings a down-to-Earth sense of revelation, while violin near the end of the track brings an enlightened sense of freedom reflected by the lyrics. Fans of Shawn Mendes and Lewis Capaldi will love emotionally expressive style of this song.
