googly eyes Shares New Single ‘Internet Star’
Singer, songwriter and producer googly eyes shares her brand new single Internet Star, a captivating indie electronic cut taken from her upcoming debut EP, Starlet, out on September 27th!
The first outside artist signed to Tove Lo's independent label Pretty Swede Records, googly eyes gifts us with a memorable and enthralling listening experience in the shape of Internet Star. The song finds the artist singing about wanting to make art in this current age, confusing wanting to go viral with staying true to your dreams and creative process. It's a song that encourages listeners to take back control and go back to their acctual dreams, a message beautifully delivered through her dreamy, expressive vocals. Apart from her lush vocals and storytelling abilities, I am very fond of the infectious indie-electronic production that backs her delivery, with catchy rhythms, lush electronics and synths creating an overall warm atmosphere perfect for a chill summer's day.

Speaking about the song, Tove Lo said
In the age of the algorithm, I think it's easy to find your dreams altered by the demands of an insatiable formula. I forgot why I started making music in the first place and exchanged it for someone else's idea of success. Internet Star, for me, summarizes a familiar feeling to most of us creatives: wanting to make art, mistaking it for wanting virality instead, and the sweet feeling of trying to find the path back to your actual dreams and creativity in the process

googly eyes is such an incredible artist, writer and producer, and her new EP is full of gold. Internet Star has such a beautiful yet witty vulnerability that I think anyone who’s had dreams that maybe didn’t go their way can relate to. I’m very excited for this project to be the first new artist release on Pretty Swede Records! Of course together with my friends at Neon Gold.
