Clairo: 'Sling' and Exploring Uncomfortable Thoughts | Apple Music
Музыка
Clairo chats with Matt Wilkinson about ‘Sling’, an album that explores the uncomfortable thoughts that she usually avoids. After her first album ‘Immunity’, Clairo found herself in a mentally bleak place. Songs like 'Bambi’ and 'Blouse' reflect how she felt being thrown into the music industry at 18. Other songs like ‘Reaper', the first track written for the album, came from conversations with her mother during the pandemic and explores motherhood from a perspective she never considered before. Now that she has an accomplished career in music, Clairo is wondering what’s next. Listen to Clairo on Apple Music: apple.co/ClairoYT

“If touch could make them hear then touch me now” : Genius. Clairo is one of the most phenomenal lyricists/musicians/people in this generation. I cannot stress this enough, everything she puts out is pure quality and the fact that she makes like 200 songs and picks only 12 just shows how much of a hard worker and how passionate she is in her craft. Will be looking forward to future albums and also would be looking forward to see her band in action. Thank you Clairo for existing and providing us with these masterpieces

I could tell that she was on the verging of crying when she was talking about “Blouse” and being taken advantage of. I appreciate this song so much more now because I feel like people, especially women can relate to it. A lot of people can relate to wanting to do just about anything, even at the expense of your dignity, in order to get someone to really hear us or listen to us. It’s heartbreaking

I totally agree with you, this is a horrible grey world to live in. But times are supposed to change soon and, anyway, not all of your next re-incarnations have to be neccessarily made-through in _this_ solar-system! :) Keep your dignity; life is eternal, beyond physical existence. Otherwise you may end-up like that blond girl I saw in a restaurant today that sat there with a person of that kind that you can never name if you don't want ur comment deleted, and looked at me with a glimpse of despair when realizing, if she would have waited for eternity -- she would've met me alone...

This album to me feels like winter on a cabin far away from society, as you watch over a big lake full of beautiful greenery adornating the background. It's cold, raw, almost vulnerable, but it's accompanied by lyricism and instrumental so smooth and deep that it almost makes the whole thing worth it. It's almost like it's saying "Hey, life is hard, but it doesn't mean it's not worth it. Go live your life, breathe some fresh air, find your purpose, take in the beauty of nature, and relax"

sling was such a great album, seems like the natural progression for clairo as an artist
i hope shes doing fine.. i could feel her sadness from watching this. Clairo remember your music is beautiful and you don’t need to be pressured to always flatter your listeners, you need to take care of yourself too ❤️ thank you for sling clairo, i hope you are proud of it :)
I want to give her a hug I feel like I can see something in her eyes

Clairo, dunno if you read these but so much respect. Getting your dream and then re-evaluating things is huge on self-awareness. Even if this is your last record for another 5-6yrs, I appreciate this chapter and seeing your growth. I'm exploring myself and my boundaries too so I get it. Cheers to further exploration tho.

Clairo is such an amazing artist and person and I respect how she evolves with every new release.
i'm in awe she's so cute. she's so nice in person. love sling
I could’ve never been so young and so vulnerable about smthg so touchy. Like, god every song on this album makes me bawl. I literally paid 50 bucks to go cry, but I love it
I really love Clairo. She is so inspiring. She is such a genuine person. Her songs are written from the heart with sooo much creativity. I really love her as an artist and person. And just want to thank her for using the gifts she has to share with us. I wanted to give her a big hug with hearing all the stuff she’s been going through. But I’m proud of her for being honest in so many ways and wanting to go back to simple living. She’s so beautiful inside and out. I hope she remembers who she was created to be. Her music has helped me and a lot of people.
She just seems so precious 🥺
she’s so 🥺
she just keeps getting better and better so proud of her 💗

What, Jack again? Does everyone realize how important Jack Antonoff is to the music industry? Apparently, he’s a remarkable person to help bring out the best of all these remarkable artists, and they all think of him as a best friend. This is a golden era of female artists.

My loveeeee. Her new album is so special to me.
she’s so genuine, sling is a masterpiece, and I love crying to sling at 3am
you are both so kind!! I love you, beautiful souls
i love this album so much. it's so calming and all the lyrics are so beautiful. my favourite from this album is probably amoeba! i can't stop listening to it :')
She’s so real and passionate. Love her music, love her character.
she is so frickin adorable i love her
Sling is so much more mature and it’s so magical

what a sweet interview, she loves to talk about her music! such an artist
This album is a masterpiece, she's a full artist. I'm just so in love with her.
Such a lovely interview, but I hope she knows she can take all the time off in the world and her and her music will always be loved!
omg i love u so much claire u dont even understand!! this interview was really nice, u opened up to us and i really appreciate that.
Thank you Clairo for sharing your music, your journey and being so honest ❤.... And thank you to Matt for an excellent interview 👍
this felt so therapeutic, i feel so safe and understood. so lovely
this album is everything to me
i don't even listen to her music but i think i've become a fan because of this interview. clairo, you're more than a musician. i admire you as a person and an artist. i know this is just a snippet but that resilience is very evident even in this short video. it's admirable. i empathize with the desire of going into a long hibernation period. being an artist/creative is tough. you tend to burn yourself out because you just want to create or produce something "perfect" all the time; feeling like the cycle will never stop (just like the pandemic ); second-guessing the thing you've always dreamed of. those are my daily struggles. 16:31 really hit home. sometimes i feel like people just stopped liking my works (which is probably far from the truth). even though i shouldn't let that affect me, it often feels like they want none of me and they couldn't care less even if i take a break for 10 years. that part of the video that sounded like me talking to someone i trust and them telling me how mistaken i am. it pains me to see another great artist holding back tears. it's almost like a mirror. thank you for this video and i hope she feels better soon.
