Kings Elliot - Sweet Nothing
It's hard to pick only one song from Kings Elliot's just released EP I'm Not Always Sad, Sometimes I'm Angry, but I went with the official focus track for our feature, and Swiss-British pop artist says about "Sweet Nothing:"
"'Sweet Nothing' is unlike anything I've ever done before. I dove headfirst into new lyrical and sonic territories, and in the process, I unleashed a side of myself I've never shown before. It’s raw, fierce, and unapologetic, and I’ve loved every second of letting go and exploring these untamed emotions. This song has been a bold, freeing experience, and I can’t wait for people to hear it."
The track comes with an "explicit" warning, yet in this case, I don't mind at all because it seems to come from the heart, and it feels authentic. Besides, don't we all know a "narcissistic MF?" We had featured Kings Elliot before, with one of her 2021 singles, the moody ballad "Dancing Alone." "Sweet Nothing" is undoubtedly a bigger production and more refined songwriting, but here's an incredible talent, and I am excited to dive into her latest release and applaud her for the brilliant title!
Kings Elliot says further about her EP:
"'I'm Not Always Sad, Sometimes I'm Angry' is a bit tongue in cheek, but it’s also the truth! While my previous songs might suggest I live in constant melancholy, this EP proves the opposite, delving into emotions beyond sadness - like anger, frustration, and a raw sense of empowerment. Some of the tracks were devastating to write, while others filled me with an energy I’ve never felt before. I'm incredibly proud of this collection because it’s honest and different, revealing new facets of my healing journey and a side of me no one’s seen until now. My favourite song on it is 'Sweet Nothing.' Despite being fuelled by anger and a tough story, I had the most fun writing it, and performing it is even better. It’s given me a sense of empowerment and sass that I’ve never fully allowed myself to feel before."
