Contrasting Apple Mint in the Latest Song, a Combination of Sad Lyrics and Upbeat Music

Kapanlagi.com - The band Apple Mint is back with their latest work. Featuring progressive pop music, they release their third single titled Happy Without Me.

The trio Bianura Azka (vocals and bass), Ryan Winter (vocals and rhythm), and Lorenzo Gibbs (lead guitar) offer a different treat in their newest song. Experimenting with the main genre of music, Happy Without Me showcases a deep contrast in the lyrics.

Although the lyrics are full of sadness in fighting for love, progressive pop music actually gives a happy nuance.

"Happy Without Me is a song that showcases the contrast between sad lyrics and cheerful beats. It reflects the pain of someone, but tries to show that they can be happy without their ex-lover," said Bianura in her written statement.

The Jakarta-based band refers to Happy Without Me as a song that evokes nostalgic memories with an ex-lover.

"This song is filled with memories that hurt every time we remember our ex-lover," said Bianura Azka.

"Every night, the ex-lover's name appears in the stars only to fade away when we fall asleep," she continued.

2. The Story Behind the Lyrics

Although it tells the story of losing a partner, on a deeper level, this song also represents the sadness after being left by beloved family. This is portrayed through its music video depicting three children longing for their beloved grandmother.

"This song also reflects that love and loss are not always limited to romantic relationships," said Bianura.
