MAKE IT COUNT
From the very day that you were born
You’ve been cast
To play your part
Through light and darkness it’s your destiny
But there is always an open door
A four leaf clover to be found
A spark endowing you with clarity
Cause inside of you there’s something beautiful
Can tell from that look in your eyes
You gotta confide in yourself
Every little moment make it count
Every precious smile you see around
Every wishful dream that may come true
You gotta remember
Every traveled mile just make it count
Every day in life that your allowed
Every ray of light that shines on you
Ablaze yourself before the fire dies out
Take it all in
Your sails are set
There’s no regrets when you've passed the line
A fragile journey sometimes an uphill climb
But don’t despair, be you, be there
We’re all just here on borrowed time
In all rainy clouds there’s a silver lining
There’s always a light at the end
And dare to dream my friend
Chorus
You struggle you strive your whole life through
Sail with your anchor down
Now open your heart expand your view make it count
Chorus

"One of these songs that took a slight change during the making of it. Starts out as a ballad really and then later turns into something quite different. 😉 Despite the genre that I’ve delved into for the last 40 years, I guess It’s no secret that I’m a big pop fan as well. And one of the bands I grew up with in the '70s and that always influenced me big time were ABBA and quite frankly, they are some of the greatest songwriters ever in the music industry, if you ask me. So, when Chris Laney [producer] brought up the opportunity to have legendary ABBA guitarist Lasse Wellander playing on this song, there was no way I could resist that. He does a great job and I’m honored to have him playing on one of my songs. Hope you’ll like the song as much as I do...." - Ronnie Atkins, February 2022
we love you Ronnie, sadly i cant listen to this amazing song without crying, i think its your best work to date....you will leave this sergent pepper to everybody. god bless you
Ronnie,jako vždy,melodie,nápady ,prostě živel a strhující.Díky.
"Yellow Rain" is my favorite Song from slow to heavy :)
Fantastic 🤔
Wow Ronnie, such an amazing and powerful song and video! My Wife and I listen to this quite regularly and we feel all of the emotions that You are sharing with us. Ronnie, our Love and Prayers are truly with You. Thank you for sharing Your battle with us. We're praying that You will Supernaturally heal in Jesus Name My Brother. 🙏
In my opinion, Right now Ronnie Atkins is the best soulful singer of this planet. It's good to see him in his original form. I guess he is doing well and his health is okay now. I pray for this beautiful man. May God give him another 30 years (At least) so that he can sing more beautiful songs like this one. The song touches my heart and it makes my cry. Thank you Ronnie. - A 56 years old Rock/Metalhead from Bangladesh.
Послушай российскую эстраду до 2010 года и ты услышишь, что это попурри из песен России.
российская эстрада отдыхает очень глубоко. тут даже нельзя сравнивать.

Respected Danish hard rock singer/songwriter Ronnie Atkins has announced the upcoming release of his new studio album, “Make It Count” on March 18, 2022. Pre-order/save "Make It Count" on CD/LP/Digital HERE: orcd.co/atkins LP is available on limited edition white vinyl and limited edition red vinyl. Red vinyl is exclusive to Frontiers webstores.
The electrifying melodic hard rock masterpiece "Make It Count" will be released almost one year to the day after the release of Atkins' last solo album, the critically acclaimed "One Shot".
Rather than hyperbole from the record label, we'll let Ronnie tell the story of "Make It Count" in his own words....
"Me and my great team of musicians followed exactly the same procedure as we did with "One Shot," since I still feel a bit like I am racing against time because of my diagnosis. So, I basically sent my songs to Chris [Laney, producer], who would then work on a demo. When we were satisfied with the arrangements, I would then record the vocals and then the individual musicians laid down their tracks. I already had quite a few ideas from when "One Shot" was released back in March 2021 and continued writing on and off through the spring and summer of 2021. The album was then recorded between April and October 2021," explains Atkins.
"Let me also state that I felt pretty good during the whole process, at least physically. :-) And this time, I had the chance to actually meet with some of the musicians in-person because the Covid-19 restrictions were not as tough as they were back in 2020 when we recorded the last album," adds Atkins.
As for the music, Ronnie says, "Once again it was quite an easy going process!! Some of the songs were written on piano and some of them on guitar. I write the way I write, which means that the melodies and toplines are the first priority. If I feel I got a good song with the right chord structure and a strong melody that sticks in my head, then I know I’m on to something good and from there it can only get better. :-). And that’s when I send it on to Chris Laney, who then listens to it with a new set of ears and comes back with his input about the arrangement and additional little bits and pieces. As said, it is an easy going process since we’re on the same page and that’s a great way of collaborating. Style wise, it’s basically just melodic pop/rock songs, so to speak, that we turn into something suitable for those who followed me all those years. To me, a good song is a good song and then it’s a matter of how you wrap it up."
He continues, "Finally, the great thing about doing this is that I don’t have to argue with anyone whether it’s too pop or too lightweight, etc. I do what I do, 'cause that’s what I like and I’m my own boss for these solo albums and therefore, also the only one to take responsibility if it doesn’t live up to people's expectations. But, this is what I wanna do at this stage of my life and I think I’m convinced that “Make It Count“ is a great melodic rock album and I hope the fans won’t be disappointed."
As to the lyrical themes on the album, Ronnie says, "The lyrics are always the hardest part of an album from my perspective!! It’s way easier for me to write a song than a lyric, to be honest. But of course it varies. Sometimes you already have the title and the topic when you’re writing the song and at other times you’re just out of ideas. This time, it was tough at times since my health issues are somehow in my subconsciousness 24/7. No matter what I do, I’m being confronted with it everyday one way or the other. So, some of the songs are touching on this issue of course, can’t help it. That said, I’m also trying to give it a positive twist, meaning that we just have to get the best out of life and love the one we’re with while we’re here. It’s just impossible to write about sex, drugs, and rock’n’roll or whatever living with a life threatening disease and a dagger hangin' above your head!!! Or it is for me, at least! So, bottom line, I guess the lyrical content on this album is partly about the aforementioned topics, the climate, and in general, topics that make sense to everyone without being political."
Since the start of his rock 'n roll journey with Pretty Maids, Ronnie Atkins has consistently gifted fans with quality, melodic rock and "Make It Count" delivers again in spades.

Согласен, потрясающая музыка и слова

I m crying Ronnie ,this Song awesome❤
This is most definitely one of my favorite songs ever . The message is so good , and Ronnie is such a great singer. After having a horrible 2021 where I went through an abusive toxic relationship with my ex girlfriend, seeing my mom diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer dying , and having my best friend of 20 years back stab me and call me loser, weak. I most definitely resonate with this song . I love it, a powerful song for sure
Божественное исполнение, браво, Маэстро!! 🔥🤘🤘💥👏👏👏
One word. EPIC
Another beautiful song by Ronnie! Lovely piano playing by Morten Sandager!
Grazie per quello che ci stai regalando Ronnie e per quello che ci hai regalato in passato...sei immortale...

Fantastico tema,un temazo,enhorabuena Ronnie.
В начале песни я ждал очередной добротной рок-баллады... Всё к тому и шло... НО С ПРИПЕВА Я АХУ3Л...!!!) Что то в духе джаз-поп 80-90... Шок!!! ... Но немного послушав понял что это очередной шедевр от дяди Ронни) это очень неожиданно услышать такое от этого исполнителя, но это круто... Реально круто!)

Ronnie🖤...luxusní song...wauuuuu
I love the way this song builds up.
I was thinking to myself during the first part of the song: Oh, how I wish songs of this quality would dominate the Eurovision song contest. And suddenly...
what a song.
What a perfect song! Ronnie is definitely making it count! Much love and prayers Ronnie!❤️🙏🏻
I just found this. I don't know on what exactly this song reminds me, but it sounds like something my Mom would have played on Tape in the car when I was little. We had such a different taste, but I think she would like this song too. She died from cancer 2 months ago. And omg the context... To me this song is about her! ... I am shocked that Ronnie Atkins has cancer too. Though I'm glad to have discovered him while being alive. FCK CANCER! Ronnie, I hope you are well and can do another Album. Great voice! Great classic Rock. Stay strong!
Thank you! 🖤🤘🏻❤️
Oh my god my heart is in my throat this song is so wonderful and emotional thanks and prayers to Ronnie he is simply the best !
Ронни - все гениально: песня , голос и видео! Продолжай как можно дольше творить шедевры!
So underrated singer. Great song.
