Send Me Flowers' new single, "In My Head Today," is an emotionally intense lullaby that wraps you up like a warm, comforting blanket. It showcases a gentle piano riff that envelopes Iris van Dijk's fragile but powerful voice, pulling you into a trance. Van Dijk hits a delicate note in this series, epitomizing the sense of feeling the vast, unbridgeable void between the inner world of thought and the other reality beyond, a feeling that everyone has experienced but expressed in words.
The song's theme reflects the inner turmoil and tranquility of reconciling your feelings with reality. Van Dijk sings with a frailty that transforms the song into a heartfelt confessional, as if Iris is finally revealing a secret that's been trapped for years. This raw frankness has marked Send Me Flowers' music as her own, with Iris wearing her heart on her sleeve.
"In My Head Today" is a gentle word and a sad preview of what's to come. This single is just the beginning of Send Me Flowers' mini-EP, set to release this summer, and hints at more of the moving but humble sounds. As Iris vocalizes the gap between the inside and outside, listeners and viewers will find a still place, pressing their faces to the window of individual complexity, love, and thoughts.
With her ability to juggle contemporary romance with motherhood, Iris shows a beautiful but grim tone in "In My Head Today." Her tunes express so much feeling that you not only listen but sense the musical vibrations throughout the body and soul even when the music is not playing. This early single implies that Send Me Flowers' forthcoming hasn't yet been published, and you'll be forced to be awake for a long time beyond dawn hype.
