Alternapop icon Tei Shi put out her second album La Linda towards the end of 2019, but is already bouncing back with more power pop goodness in her new single “Die 4 Ur Love”. The singer explains the inspiration for the song, saying:
“‘Die 4 Ur Love is a song about the end of the world as you know it. About losing someone or something you never knew you could lose, and then all of a sudden, your reality shifts. All the things you would have done, or said, the love you could have given, and being willing to die over it. I wrote it right after the new year when I was feeling a sense of impending doom and darkness, which now feels surreal to see taking form in a real way around the world and in how the rest of 2020 has unfolded.“
The classy electro-pop production paired with Tei Shi’s sultry vocals cast a gorgeously gloomy shade over the verses, where the singer lays down her devastation and yet commits to overcoming. TThis then gives way to the overhwleming chorus of “Die 4 Ur Love”, which sounds like her rising from the ashes of her regrets to forcefully grasp for the one she adores, the one she needs – the one she will get back, even if it kills her. An epic tale of love compacted into three minutes, “Die 4 Ur Love” is a rich and stylish pop song that can lift anyone out of a funk.
