Siv Jakobsen – Tangerine

Im Januar erscheint das dritte Siv Jakobsen Album ‚Gardening‘, daraus hab ich euch schon die letzte Single vorgestellt. Nun folgt mit ‚Tangerine‘ ein weiterer Vorgeschmack. Siv bastelt weiter an ihren lyrischen Bildern, wenn sie singt: „I’m a tangerine, peel me, Throw me in the sink, Leave me there to stink, I’m a tangerine, squeeze me, Let me drip down your lip“

„I imagined someone who was held against their own will inside a run of the mill suburban house, looking out from the front room and willing for someone to come let them out. This someone is mentally stuck, a deer in headlights, scared and frozen. Not wanting to stay but unable to leave – worthless in another’s world, like a carefully peeled, squashed and tossed tangerine.“ – Siv Jakobsen über ‚Tangerine
