“Beautiful In White” by Irish singer-songwriter Shane Filan is a love song that expresses the beauty of love, commitment, hope and devotion.
It is a serenade seemingly sung to a beloved bride in white, celebrating the union of two as they commit to a lifelong journey together:
“What we have is timeless, my love is endless
And with this ring, I say to the world
You’re my every reason, you’re all that I believe in
With all my heart, I mean every word”
The song has a chord progression similar to the well-known “Canon in D” by German Baroque composer Johann Pachelbel. Both Pachelbel’s and Filan’s tunes are now popular wedding songs.
