Alicia Blue – Young
“The new composition from -alicia blue is poured into you with a cool river; You feel a wave of goosebumps on the skin, your body becomes almost weightless and you are soaring upward. This is a very thin, fragile and elegant track in the Indie Folk genre, which is very nice to listen. The track that warms.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“Новая композиция от -Alicia Blue- вливается в вас прохладной рекой; вы чувствуете волну мурашек по коже, ваше тело становится практически невесомым и вы воспаряете ввысь. Это очень тонкий, хрупкий и элегантный трек в жанре Indie Folk, слушать который очень приятно. Трек, который согревает.”

Alicia Blue's new single "Young" (ft John Paul White of The Civil Wars) will be released on Sept 16 and it's the first single off her Inner Child Work Part 2 EP (out November 18).
Quote from Alicia on "Young:" "This is one of my favorite tracks on the record. I had never met John Paul White until we wrote “Young” together. I started the session by telling him how my whole life, even as I grew older, I always felt like the youngest person in the room. He responded, “Well, that’s funny because my whole life I’ve always felt like the oldest person in every room”. We laughed for a bit and then he suggested spinning around the narrative in society of trying to stay young at all costs. It made me think of Dylan’s “Forever Young” and turning that sentiment on its head, which is what we did. 'I don’t wanna live forever young…' Like, fuck that. Fuck staying small and unconscious just to fit in. I want to evolve, grow, and then get the hell outta here when my time is up."
