ALICE BOMAN FEELS LIKE A DREAM (FEAT. PERFUME GENIUS)
Lifted from her forthcoming album The Space Between (due October 21st), Sweden's Alice Boman teams up with Perfume Genius for a very special new single. 'Feels Like A Dream' is a lucid expression of love, pairing twinkling keys with washed out drums, as the pair's emotive vocals pour softly over the floaty instrumental. Conjuring similarities to the celestial works of Beach House, Youth Lagoon, Enya and even Still Corners, the vast otherworldliness of the composition mirrors that of unconditional love, with a seemingly limitless ability to draw you in. Elaborating on the writing process, Boman explains: "In the past I’ve written a lot of songs about disappointments, heartbreaks and the longing for love...Being in love, I thought it would be so hard to write songs about that. Not wanting to sound too cheesy. But love can be cheesy. This song is about how it sometimes feels like a dream to be with that someone. Especially when you’ve been wondering if you’d ever find love." Let 'Feels Like A Dream' envelop you here now. -Holly Mullineaux
