about
The is the first release on the relaunched Drowned in Sound singles club is the first solo single by Faith Vern from the band PINS, who has previously collaborated with the likes of Iggy Pop and Maxine Peake, as well as soundtracked various TV series.
“I’ve always been intrigued by Cindy Sherman, Sylvia Plath, Gregory Crewdson, Virginia Woolf, Nan Goldin to name a few,” explains Faith Vern, “these writers, poets, photographers, artists, who have shown us the beauty and the desperation in the mundane.”
Vern continues “After the birth of my first child I needed more space which meant moving from my one bedroom flat in Prestwich to a ‘proper’ house. Somehow my husband and I convinced ourselves that we should head to the country, little did we know that lockdown was lurking… I was writing about being somewhere and feeling trapped, anxiety and coping mechanisms.”
“The chorus ‘I’m a Cold Hearted Woman’ is of course tongue-in-cheek, it’s almost like once everything, all your personality, freedom, joy, is forced out of you, you just sorta go ‘ok fuck it, you think I’m cold, well yes, here it is...’ ”
lyrics
Tell me is it love
Red light all alone I’m on the way to no control
No no vacancies once you get here you’ll never leave
White lies and secrets stole I’m on the way to no control
God damn domestic bliss heaven forbid i want to live
Can't forgive can't forget I’ve become your silhouette
No no vacancies once you get here you’ll never leave
I’m a cold hearted woman
Cold hearted woman
I’m a cold hearted woman
Cold hearted woman
Tell me is it love
Blind love make a deal i'm falling head over heels
What you give is what you get dressed up in black leatherette
No no vacancies once you get here you’ll never leave
I’m a cold hearted woman
Cold hearted woman
I’m a cold hearted woman
Cold hearted woman
Tell me is it love
Tell me is it love
All I want is true true love
All that I’ve been dreaming of
All I want is true true love

Well, does it live up to the hype? It's okay, not as good as 'Loops' or the 'Fenella' stuff; i doubt i'll be listening to it in full very often.
Her mojo is waneing in my 'umble opinion. vykr
