Today, The Jezabels released their second single "Look of Love" from their upcoming album The Brink which gets its release date here in the U.S. on Feb. 18th via Dine Alone Records. The song is about what we imagine love to be like when, in reality, it sometimes doesn't live up to our expectations.
“Essentially, it’s story is that of ‘Up-Town Girl’, but sung from the perspective the girl, who acted ‘too good’ for the boy who loved her, afraid to become stigmatized by her own desire. Years later, when nothing has matched up to the young love she pushed away, the pre-tense crumbles into delusion. Though the song is sung in present tense, about wanting to give into this love right then and there, the opportunity she speaks of is dead, and all that is left is an unhealthy re-living of the past, and a desire for a love that’s gone.”
