Alanna Royale returns with a hypnotic video for "Forget Me," one of the jewels from her excellent album Trouble Is. Shot and edited by the brilliant Anshunee Madison, the video plays out like a dreamy, vintage scrapbook guiding viewers through cozy cafes and saturated thrift shops steeped in textured realist colors. But this isn't just any music video. It's a personal invitation into Alanna's world, where nostalgia and raw emotion mingle freely.
As opposed to the glam of her previous visual release, Trouble Is, "Forget Me" is as raw and vulnerable as it gets. It's a visual love letter to those bittersweet memories we all try to hold onto, all set against Royale's signature mix of powerhouse vocals and lush instrumentation. "Forget Me" melodies wrap you in an embrace while the video's breathtaking cinematography pinches seconds of desire, self-awareness, and resilience.
Unfolding with a vibrant clash of throwback imagery and new-age story crafting, Royale reminds us all why she's a force in the indie-soul space. "Forget Me" is an experience, a journey through love, loss, and the beauty of letting go. It would make an indelible imprint whether long acquainted with her work or new to her sound.
