Perfectly nesting herself in the contemporary mainstream pop landscape, colby! still manages to sound refreshingly diverse and emotionally intense, crafting a single that’s honestly one of the best things we have heard as of late. Built over a playful yet ethereal production, ‘Gone To Bed’ blends the likes of Holly Humberstone, Billie Eilish and Clairo, yet achieving a peculiar and personal sound, one that will attract a plethora of listeners worldwide.
A slightly melancholic and intense song, ‘Gone To Bed’ finds its deep meaning in colby!’s relationship-driven storytelling, echoing the lack of commitment and trust in modern love flings. Having debuted earlier this year, the Dallas-based songstress seems to be quickly rising to the top – judging by what we heard so far, it makes perfect sense.
Speaking about ‘Gone To Bed’, colby! explains: “It is about two people in a relationship who hold back, scared of liking each other too much. Their lack of communication and confidence keeps them from understanding where they stand. Both believe the other deserves better, so they avoid bringing up their true feelings”.
