Relationships are an almost entirely subjective experience. To distill the way two people interact and how they feel about one another, to a singular and consistent objective truth, is impossible. We write and re-write our own skewed and biased version of events, over and over, recording, erasing, rewriting, overdubbing and repeating.
Heal Me is the kind of dramatic, cinematic piece that captures that feeling of being lost inside your emotions. It’s the sound of needing someone so much that you lose all perspective - a near religious experience with gospel vocals crying out against a bluesy, cinematic cacophony that captures an overwhelming sense of emotional malady.
The song is the creation of FARR, a transatlantic duo colocated between London and LA, and comprised of vocalist Roméo and producer Linden Jay. The pair originally met in 2016 at a recording session, but ultimately began writing music together despite the geographic distance, relying on voice notes and memos.
New single Heal Me is lifted from FARR’s forthcoming album Weightless, and is all about the feeling of missing those you love. Discussing the song, Romeo says:
"We're so excited for this track to be out. I originally wrote this one with Carl Barat and Olly Burden during the same trip to London that I met Linden on. After a big night out I dragged myself to the studio across London and wrote the song between cold sweats. This was my longest and first trip alone to another country and felt pretty alone in London, so we ended up with this visceral love song about when you're away from someone you love for a long time.”
