Kings Elliot Releases Her Stunning New Single/Video "I'm Getting Tired of Me"
/
London based newcomer Kings Elliot makes her compelling debut with the reveal of stunning opening offering “I’m Getting Tired of Me”. Arriving at a time when much of the world is in lockdown, this left-of-centre-pop cut showcases an important new talent in full bloom.
A song born of anxiety and self-destructive tendencies I’m Getting Tired of Me arrives with an accidental music video featuring footage of Elliot in the midst of an actual panic attack that occurred when she set up a camera ready to film; capturing an aspect of mental health that is often discussed but rarely witnessed.
She decided to share the powerful and incredibly personal footage with her listeners. It is her reminder that no matter how bad a panic attack feels, it always passes.
The song itself is a real statement of intent – combining spellbinding vocal delivery and heart-on-sleeve lyricism wrapped in swooning melancholia. Despite the heaviness of the subject matter, there’s a weightless purity to her melodies - making the songs’ cathartic ending feel like a defiant victory rather than defeat and creating a world for her and her listeners to discover the beauty behind their sadness.
"I tried wrapping a very sad truth into a soothing lullaby. The song isn't only about self-loathing but also about accepting the part of you that you'd rather escape from. At the end of the day, you are all you have." - Kings Elliot
