Love is a very powerful emotion and it’s the most befitting word to describe what LeMac’s latest single, “Pink Balloon” is about. It’s an incredibly heartfelt and vulnerable song that talks about being present and cherishing the quiet, intimate moments with the person you love. There are very few songs that take my breath away, but LeMac’s vibrant lyrics and vivid storytelling ability captivated me from the very beginning. Speaking about her new single, LeMac said, “Pink Balloon is about holding onto the memories and feelings that you have with a special person. Knowing that no matter what happens, you’ll always cherish them and never let them go.” LeMac’s new song is sensual, emotional, and perfectly captures the array of feelings that love can create.
The beautiful piano melody and angelic strings that are heard throughout “Pink Balloon” perfectly compliment LeMac’s ethereal vocals. However, with lyrics as tender and moving as the ones that we hear throughout the song, LeMac composed this song perfectly – allowing her vocals to shine through while also adding the cinematic elements of the strings and piano to help tell the full story. The music video is no different. There’s no over-the-top effects or props crowding the screen. It’s just LeMac in a room full of pink balloons – once again allowing her vocals and facial expressions to elegantly capture the essence of what this song is about. With a track as lyrically vivid as “Pink Balloon,” that’s all you really need.
