Incredibly elegant and luscious, ‘Spell On You’ wraps the listeners in a wealth of cinematic textures and Yeija’s evocative, epic vocals, sparking a listening experience that’s emotional and eye-opening. Partly inspired by what the German songstress describes as the ‘Disney’ sound, ‘Spell On You’ drives quite a personal storytelling, reflecting on a past relationship and aiding a journey of reckoning that will take Yeija back on her rightful steps.
We don’t always get such gentle and charismatic records. ‘Spell on You’ is the perfect evidence of that, unveiling a series of electronic textures and orchestral tones, all fused together into a stream of overwhelming and melancholic soundscapes. There’s also a strong hint of hope in it, a sign that Yeija has accepted the past and she’s ready to move on, rediscovering herself in the process. Melodies are catchy and slow-moving, helping the listening experience feel as cathartic as possible.
Delving deeper into ‘Spell on You’, Yeija explains: “I wrote this when I was in a relationship with someone whom I wanted to change. He also wanted to change, so I stayed, but I lost myself in the process. This song is like waking up from a dream. I want it to feel like a hug, because it is okay to keep trying and fighting for love over and over again… but it’s also okay to leave.”
