Live At The Jazz Cafe

Echo (Live At The Jazz Cafe)

Satire in its finest form. A development of one of my favourite songs from one of my favourite films - there are so many meanings to this song. It's about being female, about the pressures of life as a woman in your teens, 20s and in general, it's about growing up in the noughties surrounded by magazines and media telling us how we should look and what we should consume to be considered 'pretty'. But it's also a commentary on society - because many of us don't see these things as a joke. We truly do 'love' them. Perhaps we should be thinking about that - if our value is based on the ever-changing list of things we need to update our bodies with to 'look better' will we ever truly be happy in ourselves?

A love letter to toxic relationships - a friendship, a love interest, an addiction. In this case, cigarettes; one of my longest friends, that's been with me more times than anyone else has. Kills me but saves me too. And of course, the title allows this song to be perceived in any way you desire. My hope is that you listen and feel it through multiple avenues.

This song's about taking responsibility for letting yourself fall for someone who never wanted anything serious. It can be easy to blame the other person when it didn't go our way, to victimise ourselves and to villainise them, but sometimes we need to turn our anger and hurt inwards too - not to blame ourselves but to see that really we were secretly hoping we could change them, despite the facts showing us that that was never really possible. 

regardless

ramen's about the feeling when you’re at the pub or a social gathering, surrounded by people you don’t know very well or perhaps don’t feel yourself around, and there’s lots of conversation going on around you but none of it feels real or that genuine, and you’re feeling a bit anxious and not so good about yourself, and all you’re thinking is ‘when is it fine to leave?’

For me in this particular situation, I kept drifting in and out of conversations but all I could really think of was getting home and cooking a fckn good ramen, spending some time on my own, having the rest of the evening in - the title is meant to be a little bit playful, but the story is real and one I’ve felt many times
