Just a Little Bit Longer by Monroe Moon: Review

Monroe Moon’s latest single, “Just a Little Bit Longer,” is a haunting and emotionally charged track that showcases her unique style and artistic vision. Along with bandmate Theo Malkin, Bunny Monroe has created a sound that is inspired by artists such as Portishead, The Smiths, and Massive Attack with their own unique touch characterized by the magical synergy of their collaboration.

The ethos behind the single is one of embracing and painting with the darker, more emotional aspects of life, as expressed by Monroe’s personal quote about the intimacy of decay. It’s an intriguing and thought-provoking concept and one that adds depth and meaning to the music. Monroe’s contributions to the band include vocals, keys, and a touch of Orphism, and on “Just a Little Bit Longer,” she delivers a powerful and evocative performance. As she seductively croons the poetic self-explanatory lyrics, over the laid-back beat and a reverberating guitar, the listeners are taken on a sonic journey of exploring the universal desire to hold on to something just a little bit longer. The melancholic backdrop amplifies the emotions in Monroe’s vocals and Malkin’s expressive guitar melodies.

Overall, “Just a Little Bit Longer” is a must-listen for fans of emotionally charged and evocative music. With its unique blend of influences and Monroe’s expressive seductive vocals, it’s a track that the listeners will find themselves coming back to time after time.
