Singer/guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Jessica Allanic, who also directed the clip, shared:
“Although some of those forces can be positive, others can become empty promises rooted in obsessions and delusions. Eventually blurring the lines between doing the right thing, accepting a more challenging path or choosing to ignore the consequences of your own actions because it’s the easy way out.”
The new single is sung in Spanish. Allanic, who is originally from Venezuela, explains the importance of singing the song in her mother tongue:
“As Spanish is my native language, it feels more natural for me to accurately convey the abstract emotions that we are experiencing. Also as the song is heavily inspired by Venezuelan Joropo (also known as ‘Música Llanera’), Spanish was subconsciously the only way for me to sing this melody, letting the natural flow of the writing process take total control. That being said, some French lines are sung by our bass player Alizon, as a nod to our multicultural background, and also adding another perspective to the characters’ point of view.”
