Review: "I Don't Feel Like Talking" - Eline Høyer


I Don't Feel Like Talking by Eline Høyer Cover Art

"I Don't Feel Like Talking" by Eline Høyer is a message to an ex who did the speaker wrong, and it will empower you with a feeling of control. The lyrics take us through the situation of an ex treating the speaker poorly before moving on to an inspiring complete shut down of any contact with that person. With words like "I'd never stoop this low, not for anybody", this track invites you to shut down any negativity coming at you. The song sets a bold example of how it is not your responsibility to hear someone out when they have hurt you. If anyone is trying to chip away at your time when they have already hurt you, just blast this song and dance along with the liberating and self-assured music.



Piano and Eline's breathy and enchanting vocals make this intense and empowering track so distinctly bold. The track has a dance pop sound, and blends electronic instrumentals with percussion to create a feeling of power. With a softer sound through the verses that will have you transfixed, Eline's singing holds a groovy narrative expression that makes you want to hang on to every word. The flood of louder vocals and instrumentals that come through the chorus feel like they are drowning out any any possible response to the message the lyrics convey. The all-encompassing sound of this track embodies its meaning through its immersive style.
