Angel Olsen is gearing up for the release of new album Whole New Mess on August 28th, and there’s a new tune out.
A spartan number with mournful guitar and her emotive voice taking you through… well here’s her explanation “‘Waving, Smiling’ in my head is the last scene, a slow-motion realisation of love not lost but at peace somewhere within myself… It’s the bittersweet end of a chapter of my life – it is the final acceptance that despite coming to an end all of that time was not lost or wasted.”
That said, you won’t find a sadder refrain of “the sun is shining” anywhere, and it really feels like something from the classic American canon of Nancy Sinatra and others.
