Gillie returns with deliciously brooding new single 'Llawn' via Libertino
After the success of her single ‘i ti’, a song that announced a new beginning and a new creative chapter for Gillie we are excited to unveil its follow up the mesmerising yet quietly brooding ‘Llawn’.
With this new single, Gillie who also produces and records her own music wanted to “Sonically explore something that felt both rhythmically uncertain, and free, with builds and small releases of tension throughout”
Thematically Gillie explains the background to the song: “‘Llawn’ centres around the feeling of your life changing due to external factors/other people’s control over decisions, and finding a safe place for yourself within this. The idea that someone has power over you whilst you’re in a vulnerable state is interesting to me, and when I was writing this song, I had an image of someone force feeding me these ‘changes’, hence the opening lyrics. It’s also about finding freedom in uncertainty and practicing resilience, trying to find warmth in the present and embrace ambiguity.”
Blending gold-flecked guitar loops into an ambient haze on top of relentless driving rhythms, Gillie harnesses the anxieties, stress and struggles of modern life, weaving them into something unapologetic and inherently intimate.
CYMRAEG
bwyta'r geiriau, cymera amser i deimlo eto, mor braf i fod ar goll
Verse 1
i dderbyn dy werth
i weld
cymryd nôl y parch sy'n hongian yn yr awyr
hoffwn i newid Eich meddwl cul
Verse 2
trin yn ofalus
absennol o le
felly amser symyd nôl i fan cyfarwydd
troi dy wyneb melys
dyma lle dwi'n teimlo’n hapus wedi dysgu bod yn ofalus
a cymryd nol
bwyta'r geiriau nawr, cymerwch amser / i dreulio, mor braf i fod ar goll
Verse 3
mae’r cyfan ‘di newid, dwi’n teimlo’n rydd mae cynhesrwydd ar fy nghroen eto, o hyd
a mae’n llenwi’r olygfa a teithio trwy
Bridge
dwi’n torri lan
does ddim gem i chwarae 'ma dim on byw, y gorau
a cofia ddweud ...dal i ddod
dim on byw, dy orau
bwyta'r geiriau, cymera amser i deimlo eto, mor braf i fod ar goll x 2
ENGLISH
Eat the words, take some time to feel again So nice to be lost
To receive your value, to see
Take back the respect that hangs in the air
I’d like to change your narrow mind
Treat carefully
Absent from place
So time to move back to a familiar place
turn your sweet face
this is where I feel happy have learned to be careful and take back
eat the words now, take time to digest, so nice to be lost
everything has changed, I feel free there is warmth on my skin again, still
and it fills the scene and travel through
I’m breaking up
there’s no game to play here nothing but living, the best
and remember to say ...keep coming
Only living, your best
eat the words, take time to feel again, so nice to be lost x 2
Thanks for reading / listening
