As the world remains locked away during quarantine, I've struggled to connect with pop music. A deeper, more spiritual refinement has sought something less fast-paced and stimulated and more reflective and emotive. Upon first listen, I passed over #SamSmith's newest single #ToDieFor, coupling it with the same passivity I've processed most 2020 pop songs, but upon watching the #musicvideo, I ate my words like I've been doing all the carbs this month. Finally, pop provoked a frequency more in tune with the vibrations of the current world. "To Die For" is sad, reflective, and unsettling, capturing the lonely call of a hopeless romantic. I'd consider this the most human mainstream release of 2020 thus far. Though Sam Smith's voice can sit a bit high for my personal vocal liking, I knew I needed to sing this song, and instead of compromising his product and lowering the key, I thought the deal with the discomfort and float light and airy like the song requires. Though I'm missing the#DonnieDarko quote in the beginning (maybe the best part of the song), I'm quite satisfied with the end result. What do you think? Let me know in the comments!
Also, is anyone else loving that Sam Smith and #DemiLovato teamed up for his next single? Let's just say...#imready.
Sam Smith - To Die For Lyrics
"It is if everyone dies alone"
"Does that scare you?"
"I don't want to be alone"
I look for you
Every day
Every night
I close my eyes
From the fear
From the light
As I wander down the avenue so confused
Guess I'll try and force a smile
Pink lemonade sipping on a Sunday
Couples holding hands on a runway
They're all posing in a picture frame whilst my world's crashing down
Solo shadow on a sidewalk
Just want somebody to die for
Sunshine living on a perfect day whilst my world's crashing down
I just want somebody to die for
I long for you
Just a touch (does that scare you?)
Of your hand
You don't leave my mind
Lonely days I'm feeling
Like a fool for dreaming
As I wander down the avenue so confused
Guess I'll try and force a smile
Pink lemonade sipping on a Sunday
Couples holding hands on a runway
They're all posing in a picture frame whilst my world's crashing down
Solo shadow on a sidewalk
Just want somebody to die for
Sunshine living on a perfect day whilst my world's crashing down
I just want somebody to die for
I just want somebody to die for (to die for)
I just want somebody to die for
"Does that scare you?"
"I don't want to be alone"
Pink lemonade sipping on a Sunday
Couples holding hands on a runway
They're all posing in a picture frame whilst my world's crashing down
Solo shadow on a sidewalk
Just want somebody to die for
Sunshine living on a perfect day while my world's crashing down
I just want somebody to die for
I just want somebody to die for (to die for)
