about

DIAMONDS is an uplifting song that was built around the main hook "we're like diamonds." The idea that people came from the sky up above and were made from the sun was not only fun to explore lyrically, but is also a belief rooted in Adrian's First Nation / Cree culture. As well, diamonds are considered precious, with each gem being unique - in the same way that human life is precious, with each person being unique. The instrumentation in DIAMONDS includes accordion and B3 organ, and the catchy melody makes you want to sing along.
