British singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer Zoe Konez shares her brand new single I Don’t Want To Be Lonely Anymore, a soothing, melancholia-infused piece of indie-folk music!
I Don’t Want To Be Lonely Anymore is a poignant exploration of loneliness and the desire for connection, a message that definitely resonates with me and many of us out there. This gem finds the talented artist capturing the emotional complexity of mental health struggles — particularly the conflict between a yearning for change and the paralysing inertia of feeling stuck. This one definitely hits home, making me feel like she wrote that about me, because that’s exactly how I feel. Konez’s warm, layered vocals and a delicate acoustic guitar motif create quite a soothing and comforting touch that invites listeners to be brave, to open up, and to share their feelings — a comforting reminder that we are not alone in our struggles. Her tender message of hope and companionship is effortlessly paired with the raw, vulnerable emotions that often accompany loneliness.
Accompanying Zoe’s gorgeous, enchanting vocals and harmonies we have a delicate acoustic guitar-led melody nicely paired with subtle piano keys that come together to create an overall warm, intimate atmosphere perfect for a reflective day home alone.
In the lyrics, I’m noticing that I’m lonely, and considering that you might be too. Making the first steps to think about how to reach out from a place of solitude. In observing my own day-to-day life, I recognise that I’m not trying, I’m almost just giving in to the present situation and withdrawing further in a spiral. But in calling it out, I’m acknowledging that life is just going to pass me by if I don’t make changes now, and that I need to start to work out how to connect again.
