Toxic relationships are a relatable and damaging subject matter that a lot of people can resonate with and draw parallels with when hearing about them, and OSKA‘s latest single ‘Gloria’ follows the tale of a young woman who has found herself in an increasingly perilous situation in one, facing judgment from others and searching for a sense of liberation and freedom.

The track ultimately has an uplifting spirit, turning a narrative of claustrophobia and suffering into catharsis as Gloria escapes the shackles of her relationship and doesn’t look back with OSKA describing her as “singing hallelujah” in softly powerful fashion. The nuanced and thoughtful nature of OSKA’s sound as always provides this subject matter and her writing with the reverence and charm that it deserves, making for a genuinely absorbing listening experience that gives you a sympathetic character to root for and celebrate with.

OSKA elaborates: “This song follows a young woman who finds herself in a long, damaging relationship while dealing with the harsh judgment of those around her. Despite the obstacles and the weight of public opinion, it becomes a story of resilience and self-liberation as Gloria finally decides to walk away, choosing her own path without concern for what others may say.”
