LIIYO: "Overwhelmed"
London-based Pop artist, LIIYO, released their third single ‘Overwhelmed’ after connecting with their fans during lockdown and finding out exactly what they needed to hear. As a result, an aptly overwhelming compassionate Pop ballad was born. Overwhelmed steers clear of prosaic proclamations, keeping it raw, real and anything but superficial as LIIYO affirms that the feelings that left you feeling so alone in the preceding anxiety-soaked months were felt collectively. The modernistic feat of soul-infused Electronic Pop, produced by Will Henderson, comes with a KPOP twist while paying ode to 90s RnB and 80s Electro. More importantly, it gives those who want to tune in to a contemporary resonant track a solid offering of aural comfort which reflects and absolves feelings of morosity.
LIIYO explained “I wanted to make sure that my first ever ballad contained a strong, relatable topic that listeners could identify with. Overwhelmed is a song about what happens when you can feel anxiety rearing its head while you try to tell yourself that things are OK, but you’re constantly getting that push back from your brain.”
