After the indefinite (but not definitive) separation of Little Mix, the members of the girl band have been working on their respective projects—personal and professional—on their own. This year it was Perrie Edwards’ turn, who artistically renamed herself without her last name, with the single Forget About Us. “Deep down, now I feel alone Perrie. I feel like it’s more of a statement on its own,” he recently told Rollercoaster Magazine.
For this first solo debut single, the artist has had the participation of Ed Sheeran, David Hodges and Steven Solomon in the composition; the latter, also responsible for the production together with Andrew Goldstein. And it maintains all the essence of the girl band of which she has been a part of for more than a decade.
In this new musical adventure that she has just embarked on, the young woman has written songs “above all.” “Opening your heart about a certain life situation is really a kind of therapy that suddenly becomes a song.”
Regarding this single, we were already able to hear it on April 12, but it was this Friday when the British singer shared a video clip that already ushers us into summer, filmed in Cape Town (South Africa) and directed by Jake Nava, Known for other works by Britney Spears or Beyoncé.
As Miley Cyrus already did in flowers or Tom Cruise in Risky Business, Perrie goes through all the rooms of her house —from the pool to the bedroom, passing through the living room, the office and the hallways, not forgetting the bathroom vanity— dancing to the rhythm of this song, which is also perfect as a soundtrack for long road trips with the windows descents.
Despite its colors, the sun, the beach and the good vibes that the clip conveys, Forget about us It talks about a past relationship that could have been everything, but it ended like the fleeting and intense loves of the summer season end. Nostalgia without melancholy to remember those magical stories that we experienced for a short period of time.
