The story behind it.
Kimmo asked for a love ballad about the immediate connection when two people’s eyes meet: the difficulty of being apart, the weight of waiting and the magic of returning to each other’s arms.
As the song developed, he changed its title to When our eyes meet. He also pushed back when the vocal delivery felt too gloomy. The longing mattered, but the joy of love needed to be heard as well.
One line became particularly important to him: “As if my heart remembered you.” It captures the feeling the writing kept reaching for — meeting someone new and sensing a connection that already feels familiar.
