The Los Angeles based singer, songwriter, and producer, Evan Blum, had recently released his single “Break Me Down”, an electronic and acoustic mix accompanying lyrics based around the concept of resilience.
The lyrics that really stand out to me are dispersed intermittently throughout the track:
Do you feel like your lost
Like your gripped by it all
Do you feel
Do you feel you’re falling?
It’s this battle between finding the strength in yourself and the pressure of the outside world depicted in this song that give it such a strong impact on the listener. Evan Blum’s decision to make this an upbeat track allows the listener to be energized during their journey of finding confidence in themselves instead of wallowing in self-pity had this been a melancholy song.
Overall, “Break Me Down” is the perfect song to listen to when you’re feeling down as it will instantly brighten your mood. Take a listen by clicking the link below.
