In preparation for his debut album release, pop sensation Myles Smith has released a new single, ‘My Mess‘.
Opening up on his new single on Instagram, he explains how he delivered this new song release by not making it loud or huge, but to make it real and not fake. He aimed to impact people with ‘My Mess‘, building a connection and resonating with listeners streaming his new single.
“I’ve been trying to find the right words, but honestly I’ve just been sitting here reading your messages, taking it all in. It’s a bit overwhelming in the most beautiful way. This song was never about being the biggest or the loudest moment. It was always meant to be an honest one. Something that brings you into the world of my album… properly. No filter, no pretending. And today, seeing how many of you have found yourselves in it… people telling me they cried for the first time in years, people saying they felt seen, understood… that’s everything to me. That connection. That feeling. That’s why I do this.”
With soothing yet quick acoustics introducing the song, Myles describes the chaos that we live through life, whether it is family life or social life, every emotion builds up and turns into a hectic rollercoaster ride, and sometimes it can create a mess, and there’s no way to control it, but to live and learn and always improve throughout experiences and situations.
As the uplifting music builds up to the chorus, exploring the vulnerabilities and spreading awareness about the emotions we go through when experiencing mental health, the rhythmic beats elevate, making the message of how mental health can be a huge struggle for people; you can hear the passion and the emotiveness come through as Myles sings along with the music sequence. “Ooh, sorry I’m so goddamn indecisive/I was raised just to do as I’m told/And I hate the way that I’m still like this/I’m still learning to walk on my own.”
It is a song for anyone dealing with mental health, trying to find a direction in life, holding themselves back and overthinking about the habits that affect them in life.
