At first glance the new
single from Katy Hurt - Wish I Could Give you Up - is a love song, the
classic story of being in love but wishing you could move on, realising that
they aren’t right for you, but knowing that you will never be able to
“I
wish I could give you up but you’re in my blood”
In this case though Katy isn’t singing about a guy, she’s singing about the absolute love of her life, the highs and lows of being a musician! Yes, this time its about music and performing. Katy herself tells us that she has given her whole life to music, that music has been what she turns to for joy and in her darkest hours but in with the highs there are inevitable lows. This isn’t the first time that Katy has written about the genuine struggles of a musician, her previous single “Sounds Good In A Bar” was alone the same theme, although this latest singe is more about the deeper personal relationship.
When you reassess a
relationship, sometimes the outcome is that you stay, work at it and continue,
and that would certainly be the outcome we all selfishly hope for with Katy!
Even with an emotive and
personal subject, Katy makes the song light and poppy. Her voice grabs you from the opening lines,
the backing instrumentation carries us along, the drum beat punctuating the
story as the melody and song builds with the emotion that is being expressed.
Don’t give up Katy!
