The Reflections, the indie rock duo who have won over fans with their introspective, melodic sound, are back with a new single, "Inner Child." This piece of music invites us to put life on hold, take a moment to return to the way we were as children, and regain our sense of optimism and fun. An offering that is both bittersweet and anthemic, "Inner Child" evokes memories while urging you to tap back into that unwavering, childlike belief in your ability to effect change.
Consisting of the identical twin brothers Tim and Dan, who formed the band, they have developed an irresistibly solid sound that mixes infectious '90s hooks with more contemporary indie vibes. "Inner Child" similarly keeps that momentum with its infectious indie-pop beats and emotional gravitas. The moment the song kicks in, it's evident that the duo began writing music together and they have struck upon something universal, the tension that exists between the carefree optimism of youth and the more world-weary perspective that often accompanies age.
Ultimately, "Inner Child" is an empowering anthem. The song asks us to tap back into a moment in our lives when we thought we might be able to change the world with the raw power of our optimism. The dreams we have get diluted by the challenges of society, and we forget the vibrancy and innocence that once characterized us. But The Reflections are here to remind us that we can all be as powerful, if only we allow ourselves to be. The song does a great job crescendoing into an irresistible pre-chorus and chorus (0:30), which perfectly conveys a feeling of release. The words are heartrending, urging us to reclaim a childhood wonder that we often lose, while the music invites us to bask in that joy and its hopeful vision for the future.
The Reflections has been able to combine the power of thoughtfully written and introspective lyrics with catchy, infectious melodies in a way that has gained them a very loyal fan base, and "Inner Child" is a shining example of why. It's indie rock that evokes emotions while also prompting you to think a little more deeply. For anyone who's ever been bogged down by the weight of the world stomping on their inner charm, this song's an essential reminder. It's never too late to reclaim the real version of you.
