Bringing Etta James into 2019, the soulful Lily Moore today releases her latest track ‘Why Don’t You Look At Me’.
“Why don’t you look at me in the same way, when I have the same face”, Moore swoons on the jazzy affair. A take on a relationship losing its spark, ‘Why Don’t You Look At Me’ marks the rising star’s first release of 2019.
“‘Why Don’t You Look At Me’ is about a relationship that starts to lose its spark. The honeymoon days, where you can’t stop thinking about each other, going on crazy dates and showing them off to everyone, are long over. You’are now earing beans on toast on the sofa and barely looking or talking to each other. It’s a realisation that maybe he’s just no that into you anymore.”
– Lily Moore
Naming the likes of Lauryn Hill and Sam Cooke, as well as Etta James, as influences to her breath of fresh air sound, last year Moore released her critically acclaimed debut EP Not That Special. With support from BBC Radio 1 and labelled as a young talent that “possesses that rare quality of sounding both refreshing and instantly iconic”, the sky is the limit for the Brighton based singer/songwriter.
