There are songs that come and go, and then there are songs that stay with you, lingering like the echoes of a classic rock radio station fading into the night. “Prophets Said”, the latest single from Louis Emory and The Reckless Few, is exactly that—a modern rock anthem with the heart and soul of a ‘70s classic, taken straight from the vault of the greats.

Emory, a Troy, NY-based singer-songwriter with a knack for storytelling that rivals his heroes Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, and George Harrison, channels an electrifying mix of grit, melody, and raw emotion into “Prophets Said.” The track, recorded with longtime collaborators Tim Lynch and Bob Boyer at The Recording Company and mixed by Shelly Yakus (John Lennon, The Band, Tom Petty), showcases the kind of rock ‘n’ roll that doesn’t just demand to be heard—it demands to be felt.

Lyrically, “Prophets Said” is a heart-wrenching yet hopeful look at love that has run its course. With lines like “We were just ships passing in the night / Flames dancing in eternal vibes”, Emory captures the bittersweet realization that some relationships are fated to end—but that doesn’t make them any less meaningful.
