Living Like That by Dutch artist Melle explores several major societal themes including work overload, mental health, and modern capitalism pressures. It’s simply true that our society has become focused on monetary gain and economic productivity rather than people’s well-being. As Melle stated, “I don’t want to live that way, but it’s easy to fall into the cycle of overworking without rest.”
With this song, Melle aims to bring awareness to the toll that an always-on, work-centric lifestyle can take. The song definitely acts as a call to prioritize life outside of your occupation before personal or mental health suffers irreparable damage. In sharing his experience, Melle hopes to validate others and motivate self-care.
The production is organic and well-paced, with guitar melodies that become more direct as the song progresses. The vocals keep your attention convincingly by maintaining tension.
