Oh Michaelangelo – by Alex Genadinik

This is a paid review via Fiverr.

Alex Genadinik is an author, entrepreneur, life coach, marketer and small business owner, but he’s ready to add yet another string to his bow by turning his hand to writing and performing his own songs.

Oh Michaelangelo is a love song inspired by a Michelangelo painting called Creation of Adam, which is on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.

While the video and song don’t yet have a particularly polished finish, Genadinik successfully draws parallels between the beauty of being in love, and the beauty of the infamous painting in the song.

The alternate spelling of the painter’s name in this song evokes the personal interpretation of the artwork. As though every love is unique, as is the individual meaning found in every painting.

Alex Genadinik is influenced by artists like Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan and poets like Vladimir Vysotsky, and Bulat Okudzhava, which comes across in his detailed lyrics.

And we surrender in ethereal sublime
Where souls touch and forever intertwine
With hearts in heaven while still on earth below
We’ll paint the world better than Michaelangelo

Despite the vocalist seeming more akin to speaking than singing, there is no denying the hard work that has been put into this tune – just in time for Valentine’s Day.
