Noah Malcolm, a queer Canadian artist, releases ‘Cereal’ his latest heartwarming single about falling in love for the first time.
The track is warm and wistful, evoking a deep sense of nostalgia and taking listeners back to the feeling of being young and in love. Noah captures the experience of falling for someone for the first time, and how that love stays with you forever, even after they’ve left your life. His lyrics tell a poignant story of how healing relationships can be, the joy they bring, and the way we reminisce about those early moments with the first person who truly made us feel seen and loved.
However, ‘Cereal’ also explores the pain of watching flaws in the relationship surface, and how, despite a desire to stay together forever, time and circumstances can cause people to drift apart. The song paints a beautiful picture of learning to love for the first time and how those experiences shape and transform us.
This track is especially relatable and comforting for queer listeners. Noah wrote ‘Cereal’ after the end of his first serious relationship, which had been a source of support during some of the most challenging moments of his life, including his struggles with family rejection after coming out. Sadly, many queer people face trauma when their families reject them, and Noah’s music offers a reminder that they are not alone. It’s a message of hope—that, even in those moments of pain, you will eventually find someone who makes you feel safe and supported. And if they leave, there will always be a community ready to catch you.
‘Cereal’ is a delicate indie-folk meditation on both love’s magic and its messiness. The instrumentation features soothing plucked strings, piano, and ambient synth layers. Noah’s calming vocals provide a sense of comfort throughout. Compared to his previous releases, this track feels more intimate and introspective, with deeper, more revealing lyrics—making it the perfect cozy tune for the autumn season.
Noah Malcolm’s latest single feels like a warm hug, evoking the unforgettable sensation of falling in love for the first time and capturing the beauty of that experience.
