Ellie Goulding support act Sara Hartman bares all on “From the Other Side of the World”
The emotion packed "From The Other Side of the World" is dedicated to Hartman's little sister whom she misses every day.
The emotion-packed "From the Other Side of the World" is dedicated to Hartman's little sister. Since the release of debut EP “Satellite” she has been working non -stop - travelling around Europe on tour supporting Ellie Goulding has taken up a lot of her time, meaning that she hasn't been home all that much. “The song is for my little sister who I miss very much every day," Hartman explains. “I was in Berlin writing and recording songs while she was at home celebrating her sixth birthday.”
The highly personal, heartwarming track features a stripped arrangement of acoustic guitars and drums leaving room for Hartman’s vocals to glow. “One day when you're standing next to me / one day you'll understand why I had to leave”. Hartman explains over email that when she plays the track live “this is always the part… that makes me tear up a little bit.”
Of her little sister, Hartman adds that “she is becoming a strong and wide-eyed young woman and I am so happy that we can share this song.” She also hopes “that this video can show her what the hell I've been up to that was worth missing birthday cake.”
