Megan Claire’s newest single “Salt” captures the feeling of falling into love and not knowing what comes next. For some, this feeling is exciting and positive, full of happy moments and hopefully energy. For Claire, she highlights the negative side of falling- that love is scary and unknown. She feels like she is surrendering her self control and ability to think clearly. The feeling of drowning into someone else is woven throughout this track, and she uses metaphors relating to water and oceanic themes, such as white flags, sea fog, and the tide rolling in inevitably against the shore. Claire’s voice is thick and heartfelt, and shares her deep and emotive lyrics with perfect dynamics and harmonies. This track opens up with a simple guitar line, and slowly grows in sound as Claire dives deeper into her confusing emotions. Throughout the first verse, she explains the cadence of the relationship, and how it feels like she is stuck in frozen water. The pre-chorus into the chorus is as follows: “Am I drowning or am I just in love / Salt in the air I feel it filling my lungs / Running away before I’m someone you love”. With such emotional and descriptive language, listeners can practically see Claire struggling in this dynamic, not even knowing which way is up. Her voice is dripping with soul and depth, and has a soaring quality that mimics the way sea birds fly and dip over the ocean. The beat speeds up during the bridge and Claire goes back and forth with herself and the dynamics of her sound, replicating the mental turmoil she is experiencing. Megan Claire is an independent artist, who worked with producer Danny Rivera to create “Salt”. The California-based artist has released four other singles on streaming services and is labeled as a “folk rock” artist. Her four other tracks, all released in 2024, have varying soundscapes and focuses. Her two most recent singles, “atlas” and “Ancient History” are ballad-esqu, with her earlier two “Somebody Else” and “I-5” carrying some serious alternative rock instrumentals. With a vocal tonality compared to Tracy Chapman and Dolores O’Riordan of The Cranberries, she has a unique tone and a very interesting overall vibe.

Jehnniel’s newest single, “Forever This Way”, reminds us of the one person in our lives that we want by our side ‘til death do us part. Like the title states, Jehnniel’s muse for this track is somebody she “could not let go”— unfaltering in her wish to be with this individual forever. Jehnniel builds a utopia surrounded by the affection she and her lover share for each other. The lyrics: “I’d like to think that all I am / And all you are / We’re the brightest lights, we’ll reach the stars” and “I thought of you / I turned around / You’re all I see” capture feelings of being so tightly knit to a partner that both become an unstoppable force. “Forever This Way” successfully combines beautiful lyrics of a euphoric-filled relationship with dancey indie pop beats. “Forever This Way” begins with a slow piano structure, accompanied by a teaser of Jehnniel’s dynamic voice— a drawn-out echo leading us into the first verse. The track’s beginning highlights Jehnniel’s softer vocals with a change from a classic piano sound to synthesized beats. “Forever This Way” consists of indie alternative, lo-fi, alternative pop, and chillwave influences. This amalgamation of genres gives this track a versatile listening experience. The production’s chillwave sound may remind you of artists like Blackmill , with the club classic bass drops akin to Flume . Jehnniel’s voice is reminiscent of equally brilliant, unique singers such as Solange and Santigold . These two diverse components have come together to create the sensational piece that is “Forever This Way”. Based in London, emerging singer-songwriter Jehnniel explores a variety of genres through her music, including electronic, indie pop, and alternative pop. Growing up in a music-filled household listening to iconic musicians like Radiohead and David Bowie , Jehnniel's list of genres and influences shine proudly through her art. Each track is different and dynamic in their own right. “Forever This Way” is Jehnniel’s newest track and her third single release after “Blue Skies” and “Sun”, both released in 2024. Her upcoming EP ‘Seawolves’ is set to release soon. You can check out “Forever This Way” and follow Jehnniel below to keep up with her latest and boldest music.

Boy In Space has done it again! We're given an easily relatable, explosive, and exciting song that perfectly encapsulates the way it feels to love someone who is bound to hurt you. There's a rawness to the lyrics that allows us, as listeners, to better connect with the artist. My favorite line that I found most relatable and catchy was, "Cause I don't want to be the one who's gonna drag it out. / No I don't / No I don't / I don't hate you / I don't blame you when you let me down." There's a common understanding within these lyrics. You know that the connection won't last forever and while it hurts, you could never bring yourself to hate the other person. The line that best sums the whole experience up comes at the end of the song when it says, "And I don't want to be the one, that's gotta point it out / You've got a tendency to love someone / To let em' down." In situations like this it's easy to live in the present, making sure you do nothing to rock the boat. The last thing you want is for whatever this relationship is to fade away. When it comes to the tonality and the mood of the song I would say that we're given an introspective and calming tone, with the hint of emotional honesty in the mix. We can gather that the artist is grappling with some confusion and maybe even a bit of distress knowing the other party involved doesn't quite feel the same as the artist does. This tone ties into the mood, helping the two blend seamlessly together in perfect unison. The mood brings a mix of cautious optimism and a little bit of melancholy, which work with the overall smoothness of the music, creating a sense of hope. The elements of the song really drive the overall theme home. The guitar and synths work well together to create a beautiful melody, which helps keep the relaxed pace. When we add the lyrics into the mixture the rest of the elements create a sense of space for the lyrics to breathe, allowing us to hear and feel the weight of the whole song. Boy In Space (Robin Lundbäck) is a Swedish pop artist who blends the sounds of pop and country within his music. He achieved international success at a young age and after going on tour with his brothers he decided to launch his solo career. Boy In Space has a distinctive and whimsical writing style that allows his music to stand out amongst other artists.

When asked about the song "Take It Easy" he said, "Being in a position where you have feelings for someone who's unsure or has a past of kicking people to the curb has been something I've experienced, and when I was in Nashville I really wanted to write about it. The want to be with someone you're pretty sure will end up hurting you is a strange one, it's like the highlights you experience are worth whatever hurt is bound to strike." Boy In Space has collaborated with artists like Alan Walker, The Struts, Elof Loelv, 1Mind, Toby Gadd, Pink Sweat$, Phoebe Ryan, Jordan Shaw, NOTD, Shy Martin, John Newman, Red Triangle, Nick Furlong, Rod Wave, and Freddy Alexander.

Life is anything but easy and it’s so common to fall into deep pits of pain when things get hard. What tends to be even harder is the idea that we all have to present ourselves as positive-go-lucky people in just about every possible social setting. I’ve heard one too many people comment on how someones pain is an inconvenience to them and it creates this expectation in your head that you have to be 100% happy and smiling anytime you aren’t alone. Theo Tams released his song “Happy On The Outside” and it encapsulates the dread of a forced smile. He creatively made this song upbeat and fast paced to give it a joyful energy while keeping the lyrics dark, raw and real. Raining while the suns out is exactly how I would describe the feeling of this song. It’s a bittersweet reality that Theo and so many of us have experienced. Theo said he wrote this song about how good he thinks we have all become at pretending. He opened up about his past with addiction and how even at the lowest points of it he would present himself as happy and fulfilled. After reflecting, he realized he had become a master of pretending and it felt comedic to him which in turn gave us “Happy On The Outside.” He keeps the lyrics incredibly straightforward which complemented the song and overall message. “No one will see me walk a wire or the dumpster fire that my life is.” Once you get good at the act, people stop questioning if it’s an act anymore. This song is a must listen for anyone who has ever put on the best show of their life while everything is falling apart behind the curtains. “Happy on the outside when inside I just really wanna die.” Theo Tams is a Canadian singer/songwriter who mixes R&B into classic pop.

Gabby Martin’s latest single “Summer Rain” is an introspective journey into the melancholic and numbing motions that occur after a difficult breakup. The emotions you are left with leave you feeling directionless. You keep wandering, never knowing your next step after you left each other. The love you once had now goes unrequited and distant. Where will you go if not back to them? All you can process is how much you don’t want to feel this pain anymore. This love you can so deeply recall was only a passing and destructive summer storm. It was a brief moment of time that is now deeply ingrained into your being. You’re unsure if either of you felt true love, but you do know you miss those feelings. It’s impossible to return to that storm, but you feel yourself gravitating closer so you can escape this new pain. Click here to listen to "Summer Rain"! “Summer Rain” is an indie pop single that integrates somber instrumentation with powerful vocals. With each chord comes a vocal that pushes through just enough to be prominent, but not overshadow the instrumentals.

Each post-chorus adopts a brief staccato which utilizes unique and encaptivating harmonies. This impressive vocal stacking integration grabs the listener’s attention and offers a unique deviation from the other elements of this piece. One of the most identifiable sections is the final chorus/bridge. This section breaks away from the previous parts and introduces more hard-hitting, electronic elements.

Cover art: Rachel Briggs - Just Tilted Photography "Feels Like Heaven" by Ethan Salter and ALYSSAD is a song of infatuation, spoken from two different points of view. Salter's verse appears to portray a secret admiration for his romantic interest. Eventually, it turns into potentially unrequited or toxic love, with Salter singing, "Why you making my soul bleed?". In ALYSSAD's verse, it is revealed she is the crush in the song's story. She enjoys playing with the feelings he has for her. The lyrics of each verse mirror one another according to both singer's perspectives. In each one, they compare their bittersweet relationship, although comprised of yearning, to "heaven". "Feels Like Heaven" is cross between folk and pop, production wise and vocals wise. This is complimented by Salter's singing voice, which is akin to alternative, rock, and country songs, with an added twinge of pop, making this single a genre-bending anthem. Him and ALYSSAD are amazing vocalists, and they harmonize perfectly together on the chorus. The title of the song is sung as a background vocal at the end of the chorus; it does not have to be the center of the song because the rest of the lyrical content already describes what the singers think "feels like heaven". Ethan Salter is an alternative and pop music artist. He has made incredible songs in addition to "Feels Like Heaven", such as "For You", "Scars", and "Strangers Again". He is based in Los Angeles, California and is a member of SVN/BVRNT . He is set to perform with them at SOMA San Diego on January 31, 2025. ALYSSAD is a singer-songwriter who has outstanding songs in her discography, including "Puppetmaster", "Holy Ghost", and "Butterf(Lies)". She makes music that involves multiple different sound styles. Last summer, she performed at the Ziggy Hotel in Los Angeles, California. Ethan Salter and ALYSSAD are wonderful and very talented music artists! Written By Ashley Adams FOLLOW ETHAN SALTER: Instagram | Spotify FOLLOW ALYSSAD: Instagram   | Spotify

We all know and love Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 album “Rumours”. Ranked as the 7th best album of all time by Rolling Stone, the 20x multi-Platinum album still remains as one of the most revered pieces of music of all time. However, the creative process that fueled this album is one filled with hardships. Although there have been over a dozen musicians in the band since its conception (see above), this album was created by the five core members we associate with Fleetwood Mac - Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham, John McVie, Christine McVie, and Mick Fleetwood (highlighted in orange). The band was simultaneously experiencing their relationship troubles in the late 1970s, mostly with the other members. These messy loves and love affairs eventually morphed into “Rumours”, an album that is effortlessly timeless, and still remains as one of the most impactful albums of all time. The most famous relationship in the band was between Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. The pair met in high school and formed their own duo Buckingham Nicks, and only afterwards did they fall in love. They joined Fleetwood Mac as a unit, as Buckingham refused to join without Nicks in 1974. At that time, their relationship was rocky, but by the time recording for "Rumours" came around in 1976, they had broken up. Nicks and Buckingham were suffering at the hands of personal differences, the pressures of fame, and the creative differences. They constantly fought with each other, further straining their romantic relationship and the band's relationship as a whole. While Nicks and Buckingham were dealing with their own issues, John and Christine McVie were having their own marriage problems. Christine began an affair with the band’s sound engineer, Martin Birch, in 1973, who also happened to be married. She also had an affair with Curry Grant, Fleetwood Mac’s lighting director, in 1976 as well. John was dealing with the marriage issues with alcohol, and while the entire band were pretty heavy drug and alcohol users, he became especially belligerent. Although the two were legally married when recording started, they refused to speak to each other unless it was about music. To add to the drama, Mick Fleetwood was dealing with his own relationship issues. His then-wife Jenny Boyd had cheated on him with Bob Weston, an earlier member of the band, and he never truly recovered from the betrayal, despite Weston being fired from the band in 1973. Fleetwood and Body divorced in 1976 after six years of marriage (but go t temporarily married in 1977 to help their children immigrate to the UK), I want to go track-by-track to discuss each song’s writers, who the song was about, and the brief discussion of the song.  Second Hand News - written by Buckingham about Nicks. This is him basically accepting the fact that Nicks is seeing other men, but he’s doing just fine. He declares to her that “I ain’t gonna miss you when you go”, and they both sing together “When times go bad, when times go rough//Won’t you lay me down in the tall grass/And let me do my stuff?” The chorus consists of only “bow-bow-bows”, a shockingly ironic scat melody. Sonically, the song is uplifting and lighthearted in nature, and Buckingham was allegedly inspired by Bee Gee’s “Jive Talkin’” while writing the guitar, bass, and drum lines. Dreams - written by Nicks about Buckingham. One of the most notable tracks on the album (mostly because of a viral TikTok in 2020 using the song that landed the track at the number 1 spot on the iTunes charts), it was written in response to Buckingham’s “Go Your Own Way”, which she had a strong dislike for. The song discusses her perspective of the breakup, and in comparison to Buckingham, she tries to make peace with it. With lyrics like “In the stillness of remembering what you had, oh, what you lost” shows that she didn’t want to leave because she lost feelings for him, but rather because she didn’t feel valued anymore.  Never Going Back Again - written by Buckingham about Nicks. Lyrically, the song is simple with few lyrics, but Buckingham’s guitar skills are put on display. He’s talking about finding new love after the breakup and comes to a realization, singing, "Been down one time/Been down two times/I'm never going back again". Don’t Stop - written about Christine McVie about John McVie. It was written amidst their divorce, but it has a general theme of trying to move forward in a relationship in tough times. Lyrics like “Don’t stop thinkin’ about tomorrow” and “It’ll be here better than before/Yesterday’s gone, yesterday’s gone” suggest that things will get better in the future if they keep moving. John admitted in an interview that he never thought it was about him, and only realized it when someone told him.  Go Your Own Way - written by Buckingham about Nicks. This track is the most aggressive on the album, with the notorious lyrics, “packing up, shacking up’s all you want to do.” Nicks revealed in an interview with Rolling Stone that, “Every time those words would come onstage, I wanted to go over and kill him.” Buckingham was angry, and a large portion of the song is just insults, ranging in severity. Songbird - written by Christine McVie, but she never wrote the song with anyone or anything in mind. The vagueness in her writing about the selflessness of love has made it universally applicable. She sings, "To you, I will give you the world/To you, I’ll never be cold/’Cause I feel that when I’m with you/It’s alright, I know it’s right.”  But after some reflection, she realizes that she deserves to be loved as much as she is willing to love someone/something else.  The Chain - this is the only song on the album that all five members are credited for. Rather the song being about a relationship deteriorating, it’s about the whole band. This invisible chain is holding the band together, and despite all their troubles, they're still together. After the breakdown, they repeatedly sing "Chain keep us together (running in the shadow)", which changes the meaning of that invisible chain - in most of the song, it represents the bond that the band has, but now, it represents their dependency on each other. You Make Loving Fun - written by Christine McVie about Curry Grant. Simply put, love was not fun when Christine and John were together. This is one of the lighter moments on the album, both sonically and lyrically. Her affair with Grant provided her with a breath of fresh air: she sings “I never did believe in miracles/But I’ve a feeling it’s time to try.” To avoid conflict with John, she claimed she wrote the song about her dog.  I Don’t Want to Know - written by Nicks (before joining Fleetwood Mac) about Buckingham. The track was originally intended for her duo Buckingham Nicks, and it details her hopes that her and her lover can find what they want in a relationship, regardless if they’re together or not. Nicks and Buckingham both sing in the chorus, “I don’t want to stand between you and love, honey/I just want you to feel fine.” This song replaced Silver Springs on the original release of the album, much to Nicks’ chagrin. Silver Springs was released on the B side of Go Your Own Way. Oh Daddy - written by Christine McVie for Mick Fleetwood. She revealed that Fleetwood, because he was a father in real life, acted as a father or parental figure in the band. McVie reveals her innermost insecurities, asking her “daddy”, “How can you love me/I don’t understand why.” He’s the only one who can calm her down, and she praises him heavily.  Gold Dust Woman - written by Nicks about women that she claims are the “groupie type”. Nicks truly taps into her haunted, witchy aesthetic with this closer, fusing themes of a lost love with excessive drug use. The “gold dust” is cocaine, but the song is a take on someone going through a bad relationship, coping in less than healthy ways. She sings “Lousy loves pick their prey/But they never cry out loud, cry out”, alluding to the fact that she was always the one left crying in her previous relationship.  "Rumours" is truly a masterpiece that beautifully and intricately delves into all the aspects of love and heartbreak. It’s unfortunate that such an amazing album came from a place of such pain amongst all the members, but it did truly pay off for Fleetwood Mac. This album cemented the band as one of the greatest of all time, and has forever impacted music and pop culture as a whole.
