The Irish Pop artist LENII shared with us her new song “Cereal,” and upon hearing it for the first time we really knew that we should share it with you. it’s one of the most beautiful and charming songs that we have ever heard and one of the songs that you can keep listening to it many times without getting bored at all and enjoy every second of it till the end. The lyrics are very catchy and so original, written and chosen well. To be honest with you, Her voice is a piece of heaven and her performance is more than professional and it’s very unique and enjoyable, she really hooked us immediately. Nick Sadler’s production is professional and we really can see how talented he is.
WHAT THE ARTIST SAYS ABOIT THIS SONG:
“Cereal is a standing-up-for-myself song (something Iʼve never been very good at). Basically I had recently broken up with my boyfriend, who I was with for over 2 years, and it was the worst thing Iʼve ever experienced. Almost immediately, at a time when I was at my most vulnerable, a close friend swooped in thinking I was up for grabs (I know this sounds like such teenage drama). I was so angry that my own feelings were totally disregarded and I was made feel like an object that could be passed around. I know most girls can probably relate to this in someway. I thought about how, in my experience, when guys hit on girls the line “I have a boyfriend” is always more concrete than “Iʼm not interested” and the idea is that youʼre not unavailable enough until you ‘belongʼ to someone else. Which is just dumb.”
