The track comes with the release of her new EP Thank you and please don’t go.
We’ve been raving about Keeper E. for what feels like the longest time here at CLOUT, and with her new EP Thank you and please don’t go out now, it is an exciting time to be on the bandwagon with a host of exciting new tunes from the artist. One of these is ‘My Favourite Song’, the penultimate track from the EP and its powerful focus track.
The track is melancholy in nature and carries a tremendous weight with it, with the artist trying to rally herself to block out the negativity and pain in the surrounding world. The track is anchored by its colourful synths, driving rhythms and the artist’s lauded, emotive vocals. We all do what we can do to get by and make things feel a bit less bleak, and maybe listening to this song could help for you.
Speaking on the focus track, Keeper E. says “‘My Favourite Song’ is about hoping that singing along to your favourite song will take away all the pain and suffering in the world. It’s kind of a joke, like obviously just listening to a song won’t solve anything, but also it’s been my experience that sometimes music is all that can help you out of a hard time.
“This song talks about personal hardships like not feeling satisfied and always expecting the worst, and it also talks about the unfair power balances in the world and how the life I have is built on these unfair societal structures. In the end, it feels like the anthem of the song convinces you in some way that singing along to your favourite song must in some way help to balance things out, and will always make you feel better.“
