Cilia — 'Silhouettes In Slow Motion'

  • September 16, 2015
  • Popjustice

Cilia is from Sweden, obviously, and she's already got two great songs under her belt. (They're called 'Clearly' and 'Wilder Than The Wind', they're on Spotify etc.)

Her third single, 'Silhouettes In Slow Motion' is also extremely strong.

Cilia's own thoughts on the tune are that it's about "how girls expect everything to be as in a romantic movie, that you expect too much, that perfect kiss scene with that 'perfect guy' from your favorite movie, the guy who 'read your mind', knows when you are sad and [is] outside your door with roses and chocolate, the guy that does not exist."

POOR CILIA. :(

You can find out more about Cilia over here, and you'll probably want to after you've heard this.
