Song of the Day: June 25, 2019 - "Part Of You" by Adaline
It’s been a minute since we last heard new music from Adaline, but she just released a brand new song, in advance of an EP called dear illusion coming out later this year.
“Part Of You” is what Adaline does best, an insanely catchy pop song with dark undertones, with a video that touches on themes of body positivity. Adaline says "When I was out looking for wardrobe for the video I got a call from the director. She said, 'you're always draped and covered in photos/videos, but this song is about being exposed. I think you should dance around in your underwear'. She was right, I'm generally quite conservative in what I wear so my initial reaction was fear but I immediately said yes." About body image, she reveals: "I knew it would challenge me in a way that would be incredibly healing. I'm not the first curvy woman in the world to struggle with body love, especially in my younger years. So when life gives a platform and an opportunity to face some past trauma you accept. The song called for vulnerability and I wanted to share that artistically in a very honest way."
