Mark Winters’ new single, “What Does It Mean To Be Human?” is a deep and personal journey that connects people of all ages, technology, and real feelings. Mark and his son, Chris Winters, write a song together that honors family and reflects on the brief moments in life that machines can see but never really feel.
Mark’s late grandmother, Dean C. Winters, was a poet and a source of advice for him throughout his life, and this song was inspired by her. Mark writes a letter about love, loss, and remembering, and the story is both personal and relatable. Adding AI as an observer gives the song a modern twist that sets it apart. It shows how people feel and how machines analyze, but it doesn’t detract from the song’s emotional core.
Mark’s voice is honest, and the arrangement is well thought out and not too loud, allowing the words to shine through. Chris Winters’s presence makes the song’s exploration of continuity, understanding, and shared experiences even stronger by adding a generational conversation.
“What Does It Mean To Be Human?” is a tribute to loved ones, a way to think about memory, and a look at what makes people different. It reminds people that technology can help and watch, but it can’t replace the heart, soul, or ability to love and want. Mark Winters’ heartfelt release is a song that will stay with you for its plot, emotional depth, and universal message. It’s a beautiful reminder that music can capture the essence of love, loss, and life in a way that lasts.
