Honestly, ‘Strange Feeling’ is a wonderful, impressive record. Built on ethereal, alt-folk and pop stylings, the track feels soothing, yet poignant and expressive. We were so hypnotized that we instantly went to check the artist’s Spotify profile, only to find out that the single is, indeed, a debut effort… well, she’s starting her career rather well!
Hailing from LA, Remy Smith pens a calming, reassuring song, gently diving into personal reflections about early adulthood and the challenges of being a young creative woman in a problematic society. Although this might appear as a theme packed with ‘gravitas’ and heavy delivery, Smith makes it feel like a breeze, hoovering over her effortless lyricism with grace and elegance.
The result is a track that’s food for the soul, a moment of reassurance in a world that’s more and more chaotic as we go on. Speaking about the inspiration behind ‘Strange Feeling’, she explains: “This song was born out of the experience of getting older, losing loved ones, and growing up and confronting what it means to be a girl and an artist in her early 20s in this strange world”.
