Hope Tala - Bad Love God

The summer is an excellent time to fall in love, not the least because it comes with many upbeat, carefree songs that can inspire you through the stage of romance. Hope Tala from West London wrote a perfect one for the case when you are not sure to go ahead with somebody: “Bad Love God” is an airy, chill, and not completely serious dialog with herself.

Hope recalls:

“Around the time I wrote ‘Bad Love God’ I was playing a lot of live shows and kept gravitating towards upbeat, intense songs that would be fun to sing on stage. Sometimes when writing a song I’m attempting to convey a personal experience in an authentic, sometimes brutal way that attempts to get as close to the bone of truth as possible. On other occasions something I feel becomes the inspiration for a story that then takes on its own life. ‘Bad Love God’ was written on a hot summer’s day when I was drawn to telling a dramatic tale inspired by the grip of having a new romantic obsession.”
