Leo Nazz’s chirpy and warm folk/country jingling tune ‘It Feels Like’ has you falling in love with the acoustic singer-songwriter’s endearing delivery. The Melbourne based artist has a unique tinge to his vocals, also imbued with a deeply personal touch on each of his records. On his latest release, he’s able to take that empathetic approach to a much more in depth lens. Despite its upbeat and rather cheery tempo, the underlying emotion and theme of the track is much darker and morose. Describing his relationship with someone who was suffering from a serious mental illness, Leo Nazz is able to explain that helplessness, that anxiety, and the constant worry the other side often goes through in such a tough situation. It makes you realise that you need to care for yourself when your loved ones are at their lowest, because helping them out requires you to be in a good place yourself.
A poignant and emotional folk tune that’s got a purpose and meaning to it, ‘It Feels Like’ has you introspecting and recollecting the toughest points in your past relationships but with a renewed lens.
