A perfect entry point into Avenoir’s unbridled emotionality, “God Knows” brings Calum’s stunning and soulful voice to an intimate yet grandiose expression of longing and remorse. “This song came from a pretty rough patch in a relationship and is for anyone out there who has made mistakes, said things in anger or upset, or who has pushed people away,” Calum explains. “Sometimes we don’t realize what we have until it’s gone. I wrote ‘God Knows’ as an unapologetic and desperate act of love to want to make things right again. When I’m writing songs, I like to take sayings or phrases that we say sometimes without thinking, but that hold so much depth and power so that, in a short few words, people can understand it wholeheartedly. Exploring that in ‘God Knows’ helped remind me just how human we all are.”
