Some songs don’t need lyrics to explain themselves, they just sit with you and say everything anyway. Ending up in the wrong way is one of those records. Richard Green leans fully into the power of instrumental storytelling here, and the result is a piece that slowly unfolds, layer by layer, until it feels bigger than when it started.

From the first moments, the track feels gentle but intentional. It doesn’t rush. Instead, it grows. The lead melody, written by Richard himself — is soft, emotional, and quietly unforgettable. As the arrangement develops, you start catching new details: the warmth of the saxophone, the emotional pull of the violin, and the way everything is carefully placed without overcrowding the space. It blooms in a way that feels natural, not forced.
The title hits hard once you know the backstory. Inspired by a personal love story that ended in 2023, Ending up in the wrong way explores that universal moment when something you believed in just… doesn’t last. It’s not dramatic or bitter. It’s reflective. There’s sadness here, sure, but also acceptance, the kind that comes from understanding that endings are part of living.

Richard Green’s background really shows in this release. The Italian-born, London-based guitarist and composer has spent years moving between genres, from experimental electronic sounds to neoclassical, jazz, blues, and beyond. This single fits beautifully into his larger trilogy journey (A Journey, The Circle Closes, and First Light), proving once again that his music doesn’t like staying in one box. In short, Ending up in the wrong way is thoughtful, expressive, and quietly powerful. It speaks louder than words ever could.
