Kim Vestin Shares New Single ‘Apple of your eye’
Swedish singer and songwrriter Kim Vestin has just shared her brand new single Apple of your eye, a powerful alt-pop/rock song about the loss of an absent father. I am a fan of Kim Vestin's powerful and expressive vocals which effortlessly convey the emotion of her relatable storytelling.
Appple of your eye is an anthem for the abandoned, conveying the loss of an already absent father in the shape of a sad but powerful banger. Her most personal release to date, Apple of your eye was written after her long-absent father passed away in Covid-19 and deals with how you mourn the loss of someone who was never really there in the first place. This message is wrapped around a polished production that features steady drums being nicely intertwined with cool guitars and bright electronics that create an overall warm and emotional atmosphere. Check it out below!
Speaking about the song Kim Vestin said,
My father died from Covid in a country far from here. Although it’s been a long time since he was present in my life, his death left a void, and the realization that I would never know how he could leave me was painful. This song became my way of giving the child in me the opportunity to at least ask the question.
