ORKID Unveils New Single ‘Hands’
21-year-old Swedish singer-songwriter ORKID, the moniker of Matilda Melin, is back with a stunning ballad titled Hands, the follow-up to her empowering single NoNoh.
I'm a huge fan of her lush, distinctive vocals and they are definitely the focus in this song. Unlike its predecessor, Hands slows things down to reach everybody's hearts this winter. The way she delivers this ballad with a somber mid-range, occasionally rising to a paper-thin falsetto is simply breathtaking. She gets the listener to feel each and every word she sings and that's beautiful.
That piano melody gives the song a dose of melancholia and highlights the emotion of the lyrics that reflect on a loved one's unwanted departure and its resulting frustration. This is a heartfelt ballad that will melt even the colder hearts out there. Stream it below!
