Melissa says the inspiration for the song is all around her -

“The glory of the Ocean and the necessity to look after it are struck in an emotional chorus calling everyone to stand up in a great wave.

Our Oceans health is one with our health. The Ocean covers 71% of the Earth’s surface, provides half of the oxygen we breathe, many coastal communities depend on it as a protein source, a sanctuary to surf and swim, and is most importantly the home to magnificent creatures.

Yet we as a human race have collectively polluted and depleted the Ocean. Our actions and habits have seen species fished to extinction and millions of tonnes of plastic invading the seas and immeasurably harming them.

Let’s honour the wondrous ways of the world and reconnect with the flow of things.


Will we sink or swim in this Ocean?
The decision is yours, every day.
For these Ocean Blues to become pure again.”

The vocals, lyrics and guitar were created by Melissa Bayley. Produced and arranged by Bravo Bonez - www.bravobonez.com

All proceeds go towards 'The Ocean Project' to conserve our Oceans - theoceanproject.org
