Prince Royce brings a classic back to life with soul, heart, and authenticity. His new single, “How Deep Is Your Love,” is a beautifully woven fusion of memories and modernity, dipped in the smooth sway of bachata and made spicy and relatable with some Spanglish.
Fifteen years after breaking through with “Stand By Me,” Prince Royce returns to the magic of timeless music, demonstrating that some songs don’t get old. This interpretation is more than a tribute to a legendary song as it’s personal. The story of how the release came to add another tender layer, as Royce’s mother, who found solace in the original Bee Gees version while working in a factory, unwittingly sowed the seeds for this loving reinterpretation.
The track is a warm breeze on a late summer night. The bachata beat dances gently underneath Royce’s trademark silky vocals, beckoning you into a bilingual serenade without borders or decades. It’s an homage to history, seen through Royce’s Dominican-American sensibilities, an intersection of culture and love that’s long been central to his artistry. His Spanglish bridges generations and worlds. For older fans, it’s a nostalgic nod to the disco years, and for younger ones, it’s a new variation that sounds ideally suited for contemporary playlists. Royce is offering a tribute, infusing every note with his spirit.
At a time when music is often ephemeral, “How Deep Is Your Love” endures. It reminds us of the timelessness of the classics and the importance of artists like Prince Royce as they march forward with torchlight into the future while keeping the flame of the past burning. With this release, Royce has dropped a love letter between generations shaped by rhythm, memory, and heart.
