With my birthday impending next week, it’d be rude not to share a track called Birthday<\/em>… right? I was delighted to see Siv Jakobsen <\/strong>was returning last month, and when I’m just about getting over the stunner Most Of The Time <\/em>she’s back with another new track. Aaaaaaaagh. Brilliant – and relatable – as ever! She’s also sharing details of three UK\/EU shows this September, including London’s The Slaughtered Lamb <\/em>on 29th. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the track, Siv shares: “I imagine a vast pool of ended relationships where both parties sit at their own gloomy ends, greatly disliking or even hating the other. I wanted to write a song with this in mind, that there are often two deflated and angry hearts involved, both feeling the same anger, the same sadness.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The song is also a retrospective look at a hard time in my life – my 25th birthday – with a strong realisation that I would never want to go back, no matter the circumstances. To me it encapsulates a mutual feeling of wasted effort and time toward something that was doomed to fail from the beginning.” <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
