Vera Blue - Private

Private marks a big change in Vera Blue and her early career in music. 

Vera mentioned that this is a song about fantasizing of someone you can’t have. Being a song with a lot of emotion and power, it’s a big statement to start her debut album with! Here I’d describe her as angry and frustrated, and it really shows in the way she sings as well as in the lyrics. 

“What’s wrong in reality feels so right in my fantasy. I just wanna make you feel good.” 

These are the lyrics for the chorus (both lines are repeated), and it ultimately shows off a lot in regards to what the song is about. As soon as the chorus starts, the song changes dramatically. From a soft and quite tone in the verses, accompanied by just a piano, the track then uses an electronic beat. I would also say the build-up into the chorus is really sudden, but it works pretty damn well! The electronic music works because of the aggressiveness in which Vera sings so it was well-fitted.

And the vocals? They’re great! It’s also recognisable if you’ve listened to her music before. The frustration and anger she shows in her vocals seem raw and suit the entire theme of the track perfectly.

Although this track is pretty short (going for less than two and a half minutes!), every moment is definitely worth the time to listen to. I also want to mention that this is the first single that has been revealed for her debut album, so she’s clearly starting off with a bang. I reckon she’s on the right track, and I’ll hope her album is a success. I would for sure recommend giving this song a listen!
