Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Emmrose Releases New Song “Waitlisted”
New York-based alt-pop singer-songwriter Emmrose released a new song “Waitlisted” on May 7, 2021.
The song is the second single of 2021, following “The Imposter”, which was released back in March.
It was written by Emmrose and Mike Abiuso, who also produced thetrack.
Emmrose said of the song, “In all honesty, 'Waitlisted' was a really painful song for me to write, work on, and listen to. In March I would find out whether or not I got into my dream school… The Clive Davis School of Recorded Music at NYU, the program for songwriters, and I honestly thought I was a shoe in for. Long story short- I got waitlisted. It hurt me on a deep level because of the fact it was all about my music and my talent. I guess I wasn’t good enough to get in. Right? Who knows. Writing an upbeat song was a fun contrast to an overall pretty sad song for me lyrically. I wanted it to be an anthem for those who’ve been in a similar situation; that you can find some kind of dark celebration in getting rejected.”- source : Apple Music
