2024 is going to be the year of amazing songwriting, and lyricism is going to be the most important element of your favorite songs this year. One of my new favorite songs with amazing lyrics is “Restless Things” by artist Cloudbelly. The song is a nostalgic montage following a love story—the good and the bad, the longing and the reminiscing. 

Cloudbelly’s new track is very intimate and poetic; the memories they write about in the track let the listeners dive deep into her relationship. 

"Oh, we had time, well, you know, at times

Time was all we had

Our distances fell flat to parallel horizons

Not quite happy, not quite sad”

They also write very intimate details about themselves and the memories of the final moments of their relationship. 

‘Well I stopped shaving, keeping up appearances

You stopped knitting up your brow

We planted trees and did away with

Thanks and please”

If you enjoy artists like Boygenius, Mitski, and Faye Webster–you’ll enjoy Cloudbelly.
