Italian-born, New York-based singer-songwriter Sindy Hoxha unveils her melancholy new single “feeling blue.” Capturing that post-Christmas and New Year lull, we’re all familiar with that dip this time of year, and Hoxha provides us with a song that perfectly matches our mood, somehow distracting us from the thoughts whirling around in our mind.
“feeling blue” is a stunning, heart-wrenching ballad narrating the demise of a relationship, much like those you see in the movies. The Albanian artist shares, “Just by reading the title of the song, “feeling blue”, one may already guess it’s going to be a sad song. And it is in fact a song about heartbreak. “feeling blue” is generally inspired by intricate love stories displayed in movies, and what I imagine a heartbreak from a significant other could feel like.”
Exuding emotion and passion, Hoxha’s vocals are the main focus in this track. With such power and control in her voice, she captivates listeners, leaving us beholden to her story. The simple instrumentation of delicate piano melodies and soft string arrangements are a true example of the saying, less is more. “feeling blue” showcases a much vulnerable side to the songwriter and we’re excited to see more of her diversity this year.
