Liverpool’s own Amelia is forging a cosmos of her own part, musically irresistible. With her first single of 2025, “Love You Better,” Amelia’s is making the call for the year to come. And believe us, it’s a beautiful one.
The track begins slowly, a single piano note reverberating through the dark, before Amelia’s silky vocals slide in, smooth and rife with unspoken tension. There’s this weightlessness to her voice that creates a dialect of intimacy, the sound of someone drawing closer even as they’re narrating their most naked thoughts.
Amelia’s melodic sincerity lifts the song from a sleek pop cut to something more lasting. There’s a liberating honesty in how she approaches insecurity. You can move to it. You can cry to it. You can send your ex or your new crush a text to it. It’s that kind of track.
With “Love You Better,” Amelia confirms her status as one of pop’s most thrilling voices not just because she makes beautiful music but because she makes it feel human. Defenselessness has never sounded so self-assured.
