London-based singer-songwriter Molly Burman shows her vulnerable side on her charming new single “Pretty Girl,” out now.
We can all struggle with loving ourselves and it’s easy to compare ourselves to others, but Molly Burman reminds us self-admiration comes from within on her powerful new single “Pretty Girl.” The release is a celestial slice of bedroom-pop that is delicately weaved and perfectly encapsulates the narrative of the song.
Talking about the single, Molly elaborates, “I wrote ‘Pretty Girl’ a few years ago desperately trying to become what I thought was ‘perfect.’ I wanted to be the girl that I heard being spoken about in songs and books, so I would dress myself in things that made me feel uncomfortable and would spend hours looking in the mirror imagining my body to look a different way, but that just made me feel further and further away from the ‘pretty girls.’
Over time I started to realise that I could only truly be pretty when I felt it; when I was doing things that I loved, wearing colourful clothes and not trying to be someone else. This song is about being completely yourself and feeling absolutely beautiful while doing it.”
“Pretty Girl” is in stores now.
