Damn, Joey Dosik, could you be any sweeter? This song and its accompanying video tug at the heart strings like a bowl of spaghetti and might melt a viewer into a puddle of tears.”Take Mine” is Dosik’s attempt at a universal song of love a la Carole King’s “You’ve Got A Friend” and Bill Withers’ “Lean On Me” that could relate to people of all ages. “It’s a song about being willing to ask for help when you are in need,” says Dosik. “We live in a very turbulent world and there are a lot of people in need of the most basic human needs — food, water, shelter, freedom, security, opportunity. ‘Take Mine’ is about ourselves, the ones we love, and the people in need of help who we do not know.” In the video, a confused elderly woman walks into a house and sees her life flash before her eyes, only to arrive at a moment of recognition, with Dosik playing her loving son. “I’m there to comfort her through her trying time,” explains Dosik, “and there is also something there to comfort us all — music!” Someone pass the tissues.

Dosik’s debut full-length debut, “Inside Voice,” is out Friday via Secretly Canadian and includes appearances from Moses Sumney, Mocky, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Theo Katzman and Coco O, in a collection of heart-melting songs.
