girli has unveiled her latest single,
'Romantic Sadness', taken from her upcoming third album,
'it's just my opinion'. The new album is set to be released on 8th May via Believe Music, and will see her perform at various record stores across the UK, including cities from Edinburgh to Southampton, showcasing tracks from 'it's just my opinion'. She is also set to return to North America in 2026 for a tour.
girli explains the inspiration behind the single, stating, "This song is based on something my younger sister said to me. She was going through a breakup, and she said, 'it’s hard when you can’t even romanticise the sadness anymore, and it’s just sad.'
"I knew I had to write a song about that, about the way we try to romanticise our lives to cope with difficult things and seek comfort in feeling like our life is the plot of an arty indie movie. The lyrics are very visual; lipstick on a wine glass, smoking on a windowsill, Jane Austen novels and Robyn breakup songs. It’s about trying to run away from your sadness but it following you wherever you go."
