JANINA JADE New Official Video For ‘Nothing New’ And Album Date Announcement
Janina Jade says: “I absolutely love this song, it’s one of my favorites on the album. It’s a really cool hard rock tune, and I just love the way it creeps up on you then twists and turns with this slightly sinister nightmarish vibe to it. The lyrics are deeply personal and quite dark, dealing with my inner demons and darkness of my soul. But at the same time it’s for me a strong positive song. It lifts you up, you know, no matter how many times you fall deep down into that black abyss you always rise up and return stronger than before. The darkness and despair eventually becomes a familiar place and you know how to navigate your way out of it. In a way you could say that the darkness and the demons becomes your friends, your home.”
