Kayls, the Los Angeles-based songstress with Midwest roots, treads the line between the ethereal and the existential with her latest single, Internet.
It envelops the listener in a dreamy, almost surreal soundscape. It’s a sweeping ballad, but not in the traditional sense.
Instead of tales of lost love or unrequited passion, Kayls dives deep into the digital abyss, exploring the paradox of our hyper-connected age.
The song’s languid atmosphere, juxtaposed with its poignant lyrics, paints a haunting picture of modern loneliness.
In a world where a single click can bridge continents, why do we feel more isolated than ever?
Kayls’s voice, a harmonious blend of vulnerability and strength, echoes the sentiments of many who feel trapped in the web of the World Wide Web. She sings about an underlying lament, yearning for genuine human connection that seems increasingly elusive in our digital-dominated lives.
Internet is a reflection of Kayls’s own journey. As she reestablishes her roots in the music world, she’s not just breaking down pop standards; she’s reconstructing them with a deeply personal touch.
Her message is clear: true serenity isn’t something you can order online or add to your digital cart.
It’s a state of being, built brick by brick within the confines of our own souls.
In her own words, Kayls captures the essence of her creation: “For better or for worse, society has been disrupted by social media… My new song, ‘Internet,’ zooms in on the negative effects of this societal shift.” It’s a timely reminder, especially in an age where our screens often overshadow our surroundings and virtual ‘likes’ are mistaken for genuine love.
So, the next time you find yourself mindlessly scrolling through your feed, let Kayl’s haunting melodies be the soundtrack to your digital detox. Because sometimes the best way to connect is to disconnect.
