Viennese collective Soul de Vienne is back with a soul anthem that’s just as brave as it is sincere. “Stop Being Blind,” from composer and producer Roman Schleischitz, is a track that wears its heart on its sleeve, combining fiery brass, a slinky enough groove, and vocals that slice straight to the heart.
“Stop Being Blind” is about not wanting to see someone go down the same path of self-destruction. The words walk a tight line between openness and conviction, tapping into the shared human experience of falling in love as an unreliable lens through which to view the world. Instead of finger-pointing, the song pleads, pushes, and, finally, empowers you to open your eyes to love, truth, and connection.
The track soars because of the dynamic energy, the horn section stabs with urgent force, the bassline strides on pure funk cockiness, and the vocals are wringing out real life. It’s the sort of performance that doesn’t just play in your ears, it wakes you up. This is a call to clarity, a reminder that sometimes the bravest act of love is saying something one doesn’t want to hear.
“Stop Being Blind” makes it clear that Soul de Vienne has no problem combining old-school soul tones with contemporary pop accessibility, resulting in a sound that feels both classic and current. It’s music with teeth and tenderness, groove and grit, heartbreak and healing, all bound together in one powerful anthem.
