For this week’s Sadcore Sundays, we get to know Sarah May and her song “Because I Turned You Down.”
Initially, when I first heard this song I attached it to something romantic, but after listening for some time, I think this song could be for anyone looking to be given a second chance. I hear it now as an apology from that part of us that can be stubborn and harmful, but reaching out to be seen as something more than our mistakes. We can do better. We know it, and we want others to know it too.
“thanks for coming” is a haunting track from Nightjar’s Canter EP and is a great choice for a day when you’re feeling alone and melancholy. The entire EP was an awesome listen for me, but this song is my favorite because it puts me in a feeling of nostalgia for a past I’ve never had, but also feels very familiar. Also, I enjoy that the song is capable of holding on to simplicity in its individual parts, but together form a more complicated bunch of emotions.
