New Music: Mary Lambert - 'Secrets' [Premiere]
I think we all know Mary Lambert from her
feature on Macklemore’s "Same Love" hit but the 25-year-old
singer-songwriter from
But if you can't wait to legally buy Mary’s "Secrets",
the beautiful lady has just premiered a lyric video on her VEVO page. That lyric video
shows Mary at her bedroom opening her personal diary and revealing all of her ‘secrets’ to us.
The first single "Secrets" was co-written by Mary Lambert, Eric Rosse and Benny Cassette, and MoZella. “We wrote this song in one super fun night. Eric came up with this simple and quirky piano line. Benny put an awesome beat on top of it. MoZella and I were instantly inspired melodically, and started throwing around melody lines and lyrics. Most of the vocals you hear were tracked that night. We couldn't stop laughing”, Mary said of the ‘inception’ of the song.
“Secrets” is an upbeat pop
song whose lyrics talk about self-empowerment and challenging beauty standards.
“It's easy to paint a pretty picture and tell everyone to love themselves, but
it's way more complicated than that. There is so much shame and guilt in our
society, and I think it has deprived a lot of people from living fully. We're
all facing battles. We've all had someone who has hurt us. So let's talk about
it”, says Ms. Lambert of the track story.
I am super feeling this! The production is quirky and that I like, and I like too how Mary executes the song. It reminds of a bit Lily Allen in GOOD way.
