"In My Own Time," the latest from Fenne Lily, is an achingly beautiful and delicate song that borders on folk. Something about "In My Own Time" sounds completely traditional and classic, but it also sounds completely modern at the same time. It sounds like a mix of traditional folk and Irish music, but also not traditional at all. I think the traditional feel comes from Lily's vocals, which ooze a classic sound, while the instrumentation aligns more with modern neo-folk and indie rock. This is a gorgeous song that is completely captivating in its simplicity.
Fenne Lily says of her new single and video:
"This song’s about the weight of stasis — about time moving too quickly and too slowly and every mistake feeling both permanent and inconsequential. When it came to writing this video concept, I wanted it to reflect the twisted aspects of a love that’s found in the midst of chaos and the subsequent feeling of being inanimate in your own story. All that, in the style of Terminator 2.”
