Released in mid May, the latest single “Lost Boy” by The Deep Blue is the epitome of beautiful harmonies and poetic memories. The vocals of Georgia, Niamh, Katie and Sophie are angelic, soft and ethereal.
On the song, The Deep Blue say,
Singing this song makes our hearts ache a little bit as our minds are inevitably drawn to someone we love who has lost their way. Clinging on to their youth just a little too tightly. Perhaps we all know a boy who has never made peace with adulthood? The life of the party and always the last to leave? It’s not only about those people, ‘Lost Boy’ is also an ode to the young child within us all.
While the song may be about someone who lost their way, “Lost Boy” is equally a song that could heal, allowing one to step towards acceptance and forgiveness. The ethereal quality of the vocals coupled with the dreamy instruments takes one on a journey, holding the hand of the inner child and reminding one that it is never too late to turn over a new leaf.
Through the band’s empathy and writing prowess, “Lost Boy” has a feeling of upliftment amidst darker moments.
