Dutch songstress Tessa Rose Johnson, aka Someone, shares her latest single, 'I Can’t Remember How To Talk To You'. The track is taken from her forthcoming EP, 'Orbit', which is out on May 1 via [PIAS] Recordings.
With glittering synths, a funky bassline and breathy vocals, the woozy, psych-pop cut overshadows lyrics which dive into the relationship breakup realm of coming face to face with an old flame.
"It’s the story of somebody meeting their ex at a party in a wobbly, punch-fuelled moment," reveals Tessa. "In the verses, she’s all cool, kind of a lilting ‘Yeah, I’m doing great, I rock at life’, but in the pre-chorus little cracks start to appear. Suddenly, this hysterical chorus comes crashing in, and she’s ended up on top of the table, mascara streaming down her cheeks… as it turns out: Actually no, she’s not fine. And yes, that escalated quickly."
