‘emotional affair’ - Meg Smith opens up about the frustration and begrudging acceptance of losing someone’s love
Meg Smith’s music evokes a sort of whimsical nostalgia that makes you long for those stress-free summer days. Her newest single “emotional affair” is nothing short of that vision. The song perfectly captures the soft, easy rock sound of the late 90s/early 2000s that have you reminiscing about artists like Michelle Branch and Liz Phair.
Although the song is a perfect listen for a drive to the beach, it is quite deep lyrically. Meg vents out her feelings regarding the growing acceptance of losing a partner. She watches as they begin to lose feelings for her while falling for someone else. Meg notes that it hurts even more to know that it’s an “emotional affair” rather than something physical.
Meg Smith is creating a soundtrack to her own romcom and this latest single follows suit. With cheeky lyrics overlaid with perfect pop production and vulnerable vocals, “emotional affair” is both a deep cut and a banger all in one song and we can’t wait to hear where Meg Smith takes her sound next!
