Learning to fall in love again after heartbreak is no easy feat. You’re walking a tightrope you laid out for yourself and taking every step so carefully to avoid falling fast. You want to fall and it seems so tempting but the past haunts your previous steps. Chilli Chilton released her new single, “Please Don’t” about the fear of learning to love again. It’s catchy with drums that make your feet tap and guitar riffs that have you moving your head to every beat. It’s upbeat yet under the surface holds desperation, sadness and yearning for something as easy as it is good. It’s truly a track that will have you fighting between dancing and crying at the same time.
“Please Don’t” is truly for the ones who have been broken time and time again and have lost faith that love even exists. Chilli Chilton vulnerably begs in this song for this person not to hurt her like all the ones before. “Don’t break this heart, another hit and it might never start again.” As someone who got her heart broken a year ago and is now taking the leap with someone new, I resonate with this song so deeply. Everything feels good, but you can’t help but impend doom based on previous situations. It’s tough, it’s scary and it’s a risk, but none of us are alone in trying. Take a listen to “Please Don’t” if you’re rolling the dice on someone new and let it be a reminder that it’s okay to be afraid.
Chilli Chilton is a pop singer-songwriter paving her way into the industry one song at a time. For her, music is her own personal diary that her listeners get to listen and relate to. She shares all about love, heartbreak, life and the epitome of being a young woman figuring it all out. Growing up comes with many lessons that are important to learn, but can burn in the process. That’s why I love artists like Chilli who so easily share their own experiences for us to find comfort in. Her debut single “9000 Miles,” was released in 2025 followed by “Over It Now” and “Catch Me If You Can.” Her discography is growing and so is her listener base so follow the links down below to watch Chilli shine.
