François Marius sparks a reggae revival with powerful anthem “Live If You Want to Live”
François Marius goes all the way through with “Live If You Want to Live,” which is a new reggae-jazz single. It’s a soulful reminder to breathe deeper, live freer, and return to what matters. Written, composed, and performed entirely by François Marius, who also plays bass, drums, and vocals, the song demonstrates the magic of raw, independent artistry. That duality, a healthy respect for the fundamentals, and an eye toward what the form still has to say about what’s happening now gives Marius a sound that feels both outside of time and of the moment.
From the opening beat, “Live If You Want to Live ” radiates an undeniable authenticity. The groove is warm and organic, propelled by earthy basslines or steady, heartbeatlike percussion. It’s the kind of rhythm that beckons you to sway with your eyes shut, roots you while it elevates you. François Marius’s singing is earnest and raw, less about finesse and more about immediacy. He sings like someone who’s been down the hard road and returned with words of wisdom to share.
In a world increasingly obsessed with speed, virality, and streaming numbers, François Marius is moving with intention, and that alone makes “Live If You Want to Live” worth hearing. Longtime reggae love or if you need a song with some real heart, François Marius hath delivered in a song that’s likely to stay with you. “Live If You Want to Live” is a medicine.

Tom Woodward exposes the dark side of modern idol worship in latest release “PHONEY MESSIAH”
Tom Woodward, Australian genre-bender, has a great new single, “PHONEY MESSIAH.” The song, wraps listeners in a tense, swirling mood that blends his unique folk noir style with a gothic country sound that has a grunge feel. Woodward sets up a steady, unchanging beat, mixed with distorted guitars that shine and swirl, making you feel both uneasy and curious. His voice is hypnotic, it sounds both urgent and incantatory, and it takes listeners to a place where the search for simple answers makes us easy prey for frauds, digital demagogues, and people who claim to be experts.
“PHONEY MESSIAH” is not only in how it sounds, but also in how it is put together. Woodward examines modern disappointment through a dark lens, showing how real-life problems are turned into entertainment. The video that accompanies this critique makes it even stronger by presenting a powerful collage of disturbing images that are too familiar, serving as a warning about the digital age’s seductive allure of clickbait and charming lies.
“PHONEY MESSIAH” is a statement. Woodward’s music not only invites people to listen, but it also forces them to face the uncomfortable truths of the world we live in every day. Tom Woodward’s latest album is a fascinating and unforgettable look at the tension between music and morality. It will appeal to fans of music that looks at the mind while also presenting intricately composed sound.
