A star in the making, Francesca Monte doesn’t shy away from packing her music with emotional value and authenticity. It’s the signature mark of her relatable and meaningful pop stylings, offering listeners a slice of acceptance and resilience. Exploring our consciousness and all the pain and melancholia that comes with it, Monte often focuses her storytelling on relationships and love, making her an enlightened interpreter of human love. ‘Mistakes’ is perhaps the strongest evidence of that.
An incredibly expressive number, the song focuses on the collective need for attachment, embarking on themes of abandonment and solitude. As Francesca explains: “Learning to love yourself is the key to everything. Overcoming your insecurities and nightmares from the past.Because only love can save us, universal love, in all its forms.” Monte’s evocative and malleable vocals are the perfect artistic vessel for such poignant lyricism.
Sonically, we are in modern territories, with ‘Mistakes’ pivoting a groovy yet nuanced R&B beat, drenched in bright electronica and long textures, making for a very hypnotising listening experience. A collaborative work among Monte, Kevan and Daniel Baiolla, the record is championed by Rotbaum Records. A worthy offering, give it a chance!
