Olive Louise Releases New Song “Special”
New York-based singer-songwriter Olive Louise released a new song “Special” on November 29, 2023.
The song is the second single following “Swallow the Ocean” since the 2023 EP “275 Kings Point Road”, which was released back in April.
The track was written about an amalgamation of experiences where she felt nervous and out of place and had wished she could feel comfortable as herself rather than instantly wishing to leave.
It was written by Olivia Louise Handler and produced by Marky Style.
Olive Louise said of the song, “I created this character in the song, this perfect person, that comes along, understands how I’m feeling, and says “let’s go look at the view” because that’s what I had almost always wished for in those times.”- She explained about her music, “My father used to tell me, 'you don’t paint apples red or flowers more vibrant' and that is always in the forefront of my mind. I don’t want my imperfections washed out. You can be soft and have grit.”
She continued, “The events in my life have forced me through so many huge changes. I never could have seen my life going the way it has. It’s had a profound effect on what I resonate with. I understand not fitting in and moving around and trying to make sense of things without time to, and so that’s the imagery I’m drawn to and the music I write reflects my lived experience.” -
