girl in red Releases New Song “midnight love”
Norwegian alt-pop singer-songwriter girl in red has delivered a new song “midnight love”, following “kate's not here” featuring in the horror film “The Turning” soundtrack.
In a statement, she revealed that the song is based on a real experience, but written from the other person's perspective instead of herself.
“'midnight love' feels like my best work so far. Its my first song with a piano, but the approach of writing it was a bit different than usual too. Even though I’m singing from my perspective, as the ‘victim’, in real life it was actually me who was ‘bad guy’. A close friend was treated the same way i had treated someone else,” Marie Ulven Ringheim (her real name) said of the song. “Like, this dude would text her at night to see if they could meet up, and it kind of gave her false hope that they could be something more, so she always would say yes and be there for him. Seeing that so up close gave me some perspective and I realised that my situation was very similar.”
She continued, “So this song is pretty much me reflecting on how small i’ve made someone else feel. Even though I never meant be a dick, I was. we met up recently after she heard the song and I apologised. I think she forgave me.”- source : CLASH
