Noel DeLisle – The One to Call You Mine
A relaxing break from the pressure of the day can be found in the soothing piano and rich country twang of Noel DeLisle. Coming from a background in classical music and country music, DeLisle weaves a tapestry of romantic sunset balladry across feel-good vibes and comforting melodies. The Virginian resident’s song “The One to Call You Mine” displays a prowess for strength and warmth in vocalizing, an art that seems to get lost in the majority of mainstream country saturation that usually plays out like a prody of itself. With a background at New York’s Juliard School, DeLisle’s piano is a gentle symphony all on its own, mixing between an addictive main melody and a choral celebration.
DeLisle’s lyrical content is present, but it doesn’t quite paint the picture that I would have hoped for. It’s not bad, but it doesn’t provoke me to listen to the track more than once. I admit, as with every song, some will love it and some will hate it. Keeping this in mind, I would have preferred to hear this song slowed down another 15{41e357fed0c84f9247e7e029c2544c4f4d2795d9dff547b874d0988202651dd4} and become a ballad. I also would have preferred to hear this track as a duet. A sultry female voice singing the same lyrics would give this track an interesting twist.
We can’t exactly compare this song to other country songs, but if we align them side by side,t his song would be a 3 on a scale of 1 to 5. The interesting perspective that gives Noel a visible edge is his compositional expertise that sits comfortable between restrained and intricate.

This is just a snippet of his feature full-length album called Love & Loss. If it indicative of anything at all, it’s that Noel DeLisle has more to offer than anything topping the Country Top 40 Charts these days.
