Till The Love is the new single from musician Ella M, and it opens with a lovely laid back sunshine dappled guitar riff and easy shuffling drums.
Having recently left London to live in LA, Ella M’s Till The Love not only depicts that moment in time, but it also sounds like it. Ella’s vocals have an earthy honesty that feels distinctly London, yet that sunny instrumentation is pure California.
The final track to be released from Ella’s Yellow Blazer EP, Till The Love sees the artist describe her final moments in London. Having found someone she was attracted to, her experience was defined by the fact that she intended to stay as long as the relationship retained its sense of fun and romance.
Ultimately, Ella was there, in London and in the relationship, “until the love runs out”. The feelings we have about places are often complex, much like those for people — filled with complexity and feelings that are hard to distill down. Sometimes you can’t bear to be apart, and sometimes it feels like it’s time to move on to something new and exciting and unknown.
