Begonia delivers new cut "Cold Night"
Begonia has unveiled new cut "Cold Night" as the second preview of her forthcoming album Powder Blue.
"Cold Night" follows last month's lead single "Right Here", and is accompanied by a Tyler Funk-directed video.
"This song is the breakdown of a horrible life-changing relationship in three parts," Begonia explains. "Like...stages of grief I guess? Verse one is when you’re not ready to let go and just the thought of being ‘left behind’ makes you feel so desperate and detached, like you’re not even human anymore. Verse two is reflecting on the reality of the relationship itself and particular stories that come up only when it’s time to reveal the truth. The last part of the song after the strings hit is all about accepting it for what it is and moving forward. Like sitting in your despair and sadness, but also knowing that it needed to be over and that you did the right thing by walking away."
Powder Blue will be Begonia's second album, following her Polaris Music Prize-nominated 2019 debut Fear.
"Cold Night" is out now. Begonia's second album Powder Blue will arrive on 24 February 2023 via Birthday Cake Records, and is available to pre-order now.
