Sophia Alexa Shares New Single ‘Hit and Run’
London-based, German-American singer and songwriter Sophia Alexa has just shared her brand new single Hit and Run, an upbeat pop song.
The follow up to her well-received debut single House Of Cards, Hit and Run is a relatable song about wanting to escape things when they get too close. This is a defense mechanism some have when starting to being too close to someone and being afrad of feeling trapped. I think many of us can relate to this song, I certainly can as I tend to do the same when I see things getting serious. This message is beautifully wrapped around an upbeat pop production packed with uptempo drums nicely intertwined with cool guitar riffs that back Sophia Alexa's rich, expressive vocals. Such a great song perfect for the radios and for those introspective weekends at home. Check it out below!
Speaking about the song, Sophia Alexa said,
I wrote ‘Hit and Run’ after I noticed myself feeling the need to escape every time I got too close to someone. I was afraid of feeling trapped or attached even if the relationship was positive. The escape felt like a defence mechanism and writing this song was a way to summarise that feeling. In the process of writing it I wasn’t sure if the title was too dark so contrasting it with more uptempo drums was a great way to hide the reality of the lyrics.
