Rising artist JiuLing’s new single, This Thing Matters, talks about the ache of unrequited love and inner turmoil that accompany the end of a meaningful relationship. Through heartfelt lyrics like “When will I hold you again,” the song goes deeply into the uncertain pursuit of happiness.
What I appreciate about the lyrics is their propensity to articulate complex feelings in a simple, understated way. JiuLing lets them speak for themselves, without embellishment. There’s a certain vulnerability in that directness that invites you to reflect on their own experiences. The song leaves space for individual interpretation while still connecting at a core human level.
A catchy melody provides the foundation for layers of sound to unfold, with additional instruments and vocals woven in at just the right moments for maximum impact. This approach allows the song’s narrative to move freely while maintaining a relaxed and unforced vibe.
The 90s-inspired video for This Thing Matters tackles the nostalgia of that era. Music videos during that decade were often emotionally intense and story-driven. This visual embraces that aesthetic through its use of sepia tones and muted, natural colors that give it a pleasantly retro vibe.
