"When A Girl" – in ihrem neuen Song ärgert sich CARYS, was sie als Frau alles sein und nicht sein soll

News-Titelbild - "When A Girl" – in ihrem neuen Song ärgert sich CARYS, was sie als Frau alles sein und nicht sein soll

Am Freitag ist mit "To Anyone Like Me" CARYS’ Debüt-EP bei Warner Music erschienen – sechs modern produzierte Popsongs mit klugen, selbstbewussten Texten, wie man sie schon in den vorab veröffentlichten Songs "Princesses Don’t Cry", "No More" und "Crush" hören konnte. Zur Veröffentlichung gibt es die neue Single-Auskopplung "When A Girl" samt Video – siehe unten.

"Honestly, I can’t be all that you want", ist die Kanadierin in dem Song genervt von den an sie gestellten Erwartungen in einer Beziehung, die sie nie erfüllen kann, denn: "I’m too little, too much / When a girl is good, she’s just never good enough / I’m too smart if I drink / I’m too drunk if I drink / I’m too boring when I’m sober / I give up", singt sie, und gibt ihrem Prinzen den Laufpass: "I don’t fit into your mould / If you want you can call somebody else / Or do it by yourself". 

"Boys will be boys, but girls can’t be girls", heißt es an einer Stelle des Songs, der damit das wichtige und zeitgemäße Thema des Female Empowerment verarbeitet. CARYS kommentiert zu dem Song: "The lyrics reference binary people, but the message of the song is universal. We aren’t defined by what we seem to be on the surface. Nobody is so one dimensional. I tried to make a point of this in the video by embodying a few of the different boxes that I personally get put into either by myself or others. Sensitive, bossy, weird, tomboy, immature and so on. I am all of those things sometimes, but I'm also so much more than that."

Welllllll well well “To Anyone Like Me” is out now. I’m so proud to share this EP with you. I think it’s badass. I love to make music because of what music has led me to discover. That there’s more. More within us, more within others, more within space that we just do not understand. How does wiggly air make me cry? How does it heal my pain? How come finding a certain sound can make strangers in a room feel so connected? Maybe it’s science, maybe it’s something about nostalgia but it feels like true magic to me. I am so grateful to be able to create it and to have the support that I do in bringing it to life. It would not have been possible without my incredible team, @insidepocketmusic, @warnermusiccanada (& worldwide), @atlanticrecords, @ccsrights.. THANK YOU✨ All the incredible co-writers & producers that helped make these songs, @ryanstewart, @kay_and_music, @joelstouffer, @theverygoodmusic, @david__mohacsi, @gav.n_brown, @lowellcat, @andrewaustigram.. THANK YOU AND OF COURSE to all of you who have shown support through listening, watching and sharing - THANK YOU‍♀️✨Already can’t wait to get started on the next project
