The emerging artist continues to shine on her fifth single.
In 2022, a lot of young people will have experienced being involved in a situation with someone else that is deemed as “just a thing”, not quite friends, but not quite a relationship, something that is difficult to navigate and find where you stand.
The latest Belz single ‘thing’ addresses this situation, and the emotional toll of trying to reason with your relationship and convince yourself that it isn’t just a heartbreak waiting to happen. Musically, the track has a gorgeously poised nature, with the artist’s effortlessly engaging vocals paired with a lush soundscape that feels measured and smooth throughout. The storytelling feels heartfelt and poignant throughout, and the choruses attempt at self-assurance with “no-one ever got hurt by a thing” feels as heartbreaking as it does catchy, given the circumstances. A really thoughtful and relevant track that feels entrenched in authenticity and vulnerable honesty.
