I think of my past a lot, and Blackaby helps me remember all the beautiful things with “That Thing You Said,” and my heart is warm and soft all at the same time. Parents take the form of words that keep coming back to us, the memories of our times together, and our familial loves and joys. Lovers come into our lives and leave wounds and roses that bloom. These feelings have been elegantly mixed and mused by Blackaby in “That Thing You Said.”  It's a track that’s soft, inviting, and tender. It plays like a story in bed while holding your loved one. The instrumentation is intimate and uncomplicated by choice, and it keeps you invested in the tale of the sound that had my heartstrings vibrating with joy and soft love. Blackaby has made magic with “That Thing You Said.”
