Georgia Lines Releases New Song “I Got You”
New Zealand singer-songwriter Georgia Lines released a new song “I Got You” along with a music video on November 26, 2021.
She co-wrote the song with Djeisan Suskov, who also produced it.
“At the time there were so many things in my world that were changing, including dealing with the grief of losing a family member,” Georgia Lines said of the song. “It felt like life was becoming a game of giant jenga with so many pieces being pulled out from under me, whilst trying to hold everything together. ‘I Got You’ is about the process of learning to let go, whilst continuing to hold onto the few things that you know to be true.”
She wrote the song during Aotearoa’s first lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
“Covid has required loads of adaptability, positivity and constant changes in perspective”, she said. “The biggest mindset shift that has helped me navigate this unknown, has been the conscious decision to make sure that every part of the journey is enjoyable. For me, keeping this perspective along with having an incredible support network, has helped me navigate through the hard yards and all the challenges that Covid has brought to pursuing a career in music.”- The video was directed by Georgia Lines herself. “Conceptually I loved the idea of creating a video that had aspects of the elements in it (water/sand/nature/grain),” she said. “I loved the idea of creating beautiful graceful movements mixed with static poses amongst these big piles, and loved the idea of creating different spaces within the giant warehouse we filmed in, to bring different ideas visually to the video.”
She continued, “Working with Chelsea Jade on the Choreography over zoom was also such a highlight. I loved working with her for ‘No One Knows’, and was so pumped to get to work with her again for this one.” - source : Apple Music
