ILEKTRA starts a new intimate chapter with her new single “Light up candles”, a song that comes from the complicated feelings of longing, jealousy, and the pain of being excluded from a place where you thought you belonged. Written with her brother, and closest friend, the song has an intimacy that feels real from the first note. ILEKTRA doesn’t shy away from hard feelings, but rather confronts them, turning bitterness and self-reflection into something wonderfully relatable. The songwriting is thoughtful and vulnerable, giving the listener the opportunity to connect with the emotional weight behind each lyric. “Light up candles” is its most honest and shows that some of the strongest songs come from our most uncomfortable truths.
