Strange Hellos’ Birgitta Alida has been running her solo project for a while now, and the curtain is about to come down the first phase of that solo project, with her debut self-titled EP as Birgitta Alida landing on Friday. Ahead of that we’ve got one last single from the record, Past, and it comes from the same family of lush, classical pop songs as her earlier singles. echoing back to artists like Françoise Hardy, but Past is a little weirder too, taking steps into a Melody’s Echo Chamber world of psych-rock. It’s also shows another side of the record, being probably the saddest song to emerge from it yet – here we see her daydreaming about someone lost, and wondering if she’ll ever get them back, and the song shows itself out with her melancholic “I can change, let me know”, unresolved and unanswered. Birgitta Alida is out on Friday on Blanca.
