being anne - “cold bitch”
Currently residing in Hamburg, singer-songwriter being anne has just released the raw and honest “cold bitch.” The song is an ode to heartbreak, exploring the emotions felt when a relationship comes to an end.
Acoustic guitar forms the backbone of this deeply melancholic track. The warm tones of the guitar capture the feelings of sorrow and distance gorgeously as it lays a gentle, weaving rhythm. As the song progresses, a deep bass creates a low and weighty foundation to the track, bringing a sense of gravity to the song’s narrative. Mellow toned keys are also subtly used to help flesh out the melody with more definition.
Throughout “cold bitch,” the dynamics of the track are allowed to flourish. This growth brings a feeling of heightened intensity to the heartbreak that is being conveyed. The intimate vocals on this track exude with a palpable sense of sadness and authenticity. The performance, though gentle, feels raw and vulnerable.
The vivid lyrics of “cold bitch” are based on breaking up with someone over FaceTime, pouring out your heart and standing by your feelings. The song explores trying to be warm and wearing your heart on your sleeve, despite anger and coldness being close to the surface.
“cold bitch,” by being anne, is a strikingly melancholic track that delves headfirst into a relationship’s demise. The intimate and honest performance is compellingly tinged with vulnerability and bitterness. “cold bitch” is the first single off of being anne’s upcoming debut EP, thank you for ruining my summer, which will be released in February.
