Olivia Dean is a rising, young rock star who blazes new territory with her cool melodies and dreamy vocals. Her debut album ‘adeshless’, is out now through 4AD and the first single is a banging rocker ‘Love Goes On’. She is described as a pop/rock wonder with her sparkling original style.
This is just another example of how to write a breakup song that is both soulful and relatable. It’s very easy to get swept away by all the cute melodies in some of the more pop songs where they seem to be written for young audiences who don’t have to worry about being understood or finding a way out of the relationship. It doesn’t have to be that way though, and the whole point of this article is to share the tips and techniques that professional songwriters use when writing anything relating to emotions and relationships. When writing about love, a songwriter must keep in mind that there are plenty of emotions that can be explored in a song so it makes sense to write about those as well. Music can be an amazing medium of communication, so it only makes sense to try and connect with as many people as possible and music certainly has the ability to do just that.
Music can help us to express our emotions in a very direct way, which is something we’re very hardwired for in humans, so that’s why music can be a great way to connect with another person on a deeper level. When you walk into a recording studio or even talk to someone on the phone, you’re engaging in a form of communication that requires nothing more than your voice and your body – no microphones, no phones, no faxes, no notes – just you. Music is the language of the heart, and the emotions that can be captured in it are countless. For all these reasons, a song from Olivia Dean’s recent album East Llandipwn is sure to reach out and touch a lot of hearts.
