[SONG OF THE DAY] Brix - "Call Me Naïve, But I Guess I Thought If The World Was Ending, You Would Call"

lovingly lifted from Brix’s Instagram

So I had a completely different SOTD picked for today but in addition to the vibe not feeling right, I happened to tumble into something much more powerful.

Enter: Brooklyn-based quarantining COVID-surviving chanteuse, Brix (born Sophie Dupin).

I should have known the second I saw the title that it was going to deliver a swift kick right in the feels, but my curiosity needed to know what a song titled, “Call Me Naïve, But I Guess I Thought If The World Was Ending, You Would Call”.

Y’all.

Speaking on the track, Brix shared, “I wanted to share my story so that if even just one person felt a little less alone, then it was worth it.“

🥺

In addition to this song being so deeply vulnerable and beautifully executed by Brix, the accompanying video for the song equally packs its own wallop. Recorded throughout the course of her quarantine (and subsequent successful battle with COVID-19), she took to her balcony on the daily to record herself performing in quarantine, leaving little notes for days that stood out throughout the process. In addition to this being a diary of sorts for herself, this is such a time capsule for what the experience of quarantining in New York has been like, all the way to the very end of the video (no spoilers here from me).
