    I have loved Dessa since I first heard her sing Call Off Your Ghosts on Nightvale. She continues to impress me with her song writing whist also making my emotions feel raw and edgy and terribly human....

    Hmmm...I'm glad to see that Dessa is trying out new styles, but I liked her earlier style of singing better. Her smoky alto is killer. But I'm always excited to discover new Dessa songs! Wish I'd known she was visiting Texas last summer, otherwise, I would've gone. Keep singing Dessa, we love you!

    "My attempts at happy songs sound forced, like I'm following instructions I found on a cereal box." Not even a little. This is a wonderful piece.

  • @manuelahelenafernandes9798

    Thank you. My best friend has recently got out of a very acrimonious/vitriolic divorce and, finally, found a new potential partner but does not want to come in too heavy or strong. I heard this and sent it to him and said," Send this to her, it will seal the deal and show that you are vulnerable and really into her but not in a stalker kind of way." I just realised it is Dessa hitting the high notes at the end. I thought it was Aby. Wow. She has an amazing vocal range. They need to release the video at the same time as the single and hae all their ducks in a row but I kind of like that she is a bit quirky and not a slick marketing machine.

    Dessa’s was the last show I saw in February 2020, at First Avenue, before everything shut down. She didn’t do this song (to my dismay, because it means a lot to me) but I’ll always be grateful for that show.

    *I really hate this new synthetic pop direction Dessa is going. Missed her R&B rap days. Guess she has to pander to the hipster upper midwest white demographic which I'm sure they love this shit. As a black male, I hate it...now off to relistening to her original style songs "Hawks & Herons" and "Mineshaft."*

      I think she's a writer first and foremost. So she's gonna express herself in experimental forms. Doubt she's pandering.
