TORS SHARE THE NEW SINGLE ‘LONELY’ -LISTEN HERE
‘Lonely’ is a song that reflects on those early friendships that felt like everything at the time. While nostalgia for those simpler times is a big part of the song’s appeal, it’s also about accepting that things change. Some friendships prosper for a lifetime, but others gradually fade away as the demands of adult life take over. Yet within the melancholy atmosphere created by Tors’ sumptuous vocal harmonies, maybe there is actually a fragment of hope. A quick call to reconnect when you’re lonely may salvage the friendship – it doesn’t have to be as intense as it once was, but it can still be a positive experience.
