video girl

from it feels like thunder by Julia-Sophie

about

“video girl” oscillates between the distant and enigmatic and an often widescreen vision of electronic pop. //

i guess i wanted to show a vulnerable side, which was really exposing, with all my hurt, fragility and longing. it’s a bit of a nod to my roots, my singer-songwriter background, because I love writing songs. It’s pretty open, vulnerable, and is imbued with feelings of solitude in the opening half of the song. i loved playing with the production and structure of what could have been a very straight up acoustic song, i wanted to really play with the idea of being open and vulnerable verses that safety, the sheen we can all hide behind. //

the world is this relentless fucking beating machine, and I’m trying to put the human back in. i’m trying to find the human inside me too and not just become a machine. //

lyrics

video girl

i was ready to be heartbroken
to hold my breathe and think about what you said
thought you’d be happy on your own erase me
i’m gonna break myself instead

it doesn’t matter if we carry on guessing
cos it’s the way that things go

we’ve been hiding behind the curtains
sure that we don’t drown
battered hollow I’ll be there for you
don’t cry the video girl
don’t cry my video girl

it doesn’t matter if we carry on guessing
cos it’s the way that things go
everything we have it weakens us
we either come back for it or we don’t
we either come back from it or we don’t

and will you come find me?
will you tell me what I am
love made me afraid
i thought I’d give up now

video girl
my video girl
video girl
my video girl
