Following her previous hit ‘Cry Me an Ocean’, London’s rising pop star Lucy Lane’s latest single “Back to Me” is a heartfelt ballad that does a fantastic job of depicting the joys and sorrows of the holiday season.

The song is a well-rounded musical and emotional creation, thanks to the harmony between the confidently executed vocals and the melancholic synths. This guitar-driven tune features a brilliant mix of pop, rock, and electronic elements, making it sound both modern and wistful at the same time. In combination with the ascending guitars and vocal lines backed by the punchy 80s-inspired beats, the song captivates the listeners from the get-go. As the song progresses and more layers get added to the mix, Lucy Lane takes the listeners on an intimate emotional journey. Lyrically, the song is somewhat fixated on the past, revolving around the topics of longing, rejection, denial, and closure. This gives the song a relatable theme that most adults can resonate with. Lane decided to face and work through her own issues with the absence of a parent and the loss of love with the song and how she channeled these emotions to create something as beautiful as this song is truly amazing.

Overall, “Back To Me” is an excellent song highlighting Lucy Lane’s craftsmanship as a musician. Its heartfelt lyrics, relatable theme and infectious melody make it a must-have for any holiday playlist.
