Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Elina Premieres New Song “Paper Planes”
Swedish singer-songwriter Elina premiered a new song “Paper Planes” with an accompanying music video directed by Bobby Hanaford on March 13th.
The track is her first single of 2020, following “Another Round”, which was released last November. It was written by Hannes Roovers and Elina.
“At the time, two people in my life that I love dearly and care about very deeply had recently decided to walk their separate ways after a long, long time. I feel I subconsciously steered the lyrics in the direction of their story,” Elina said of the song. “I admire and respect their strength in wanting the best for each other and being supportive, selfless and strong throughout it all. This song to me is about that kind of strength. The ability to help each other pursue happiness, even if that means you can’t be together.”
The song will appear on her upcoming sophomore EP. "It’s important for me to try and shine more of a light on the value of self-esteem, especially with the pressures we all face in today’s society. I want to continue exploring that down the road with my next EP and hopefully reach a point where I can make a real difference using the platform I'm lucky to have,” she said.- source : Flaunt
