Parma Violets Pick: Ta-Ku Love Again

Hey all, just as promised here's my second gift to you guys because you know that AUNTY LOVES YOU!

This song is SO beautiful.

Lyrically it's kinda profound. It's about being reluctant to open yourself up again, finding oneself in a new relationship where you're excited because you think you might have potential with them but being haunted by the ghosts of past experiences. Wanting to be patient and take your time but being painfully aware of the feeling of unworthiness paired with keeping a good girl waiting whilst trying to confront that fear. But being equally defensive of himself because he doesn't want to be hurt again and maybe it's easier for everyone to stay alone. Who says the new relationship is better than being without when the latter is so unknown?

The musical composition of the song is a fusion of R&B, classical music.
The classical adding a silk layer with a use of violin and piano. The classical representing the steady beauty in a complete loss of control and the drums and claves portraying the conflict.

And the vocals. The harmonies, well damn idek they're just good ... just really really good.
ANYWAY enough analysis :

Listen for yourselves- and again.....YOU ARE WELCOME OKAY (yas)

Artist review: YEBBA

The first installment of this end of the month gift.

YEBBA

Without her stage name, she is actual 23-year-old Abbey Smith This woman's vocal range is insane. And her runs are actually life. She lives, breaths, and performs soul. I'm so excited for this artist as she hasn't yet released an album but she does have a single which I listen to on repeat religiously.

A part of me didn't want to give her up as an artist, as her voice is so precious like silk and gold. Listening to her single "Evergreen" I find myself sinking into my essence and being immersed in a feeling of peace.

You will thank me for getting you on this one early... you're welcome.

Here's a small sample of heaven:



Enjoy! xx
