I’ve been writing on walls, my room is a poem

(I Can’t Be Your) Medicine is one of those songs you will have in your mind for a long time. It is electro-pop with a throbbing underlay of New Wave and potent lyrics. Sval’s new single follows 2020 release Jealousy and 2019 EP Young Alien – she has found her niche with well-crafted, catchy electro-pop and R&B which is so easy to dip in and out of.
