Marie_2025_ "The Glades" by Galiah is one of the best songs I've heard this year. It is powerful, moving & unforgettable.

The chorus is easily memorable, I think because of both the lyrics & melodic structure; with a distinct note change.

It tells a poignant message or story, & I admire Galiah for writing such meaningful lyrics. 
Beautifully sung, strong instrumentation & great melodies make "The Glades" a thought-provoking song that held my undivided attention, & one which I would definitely recommend. Favorite track: the Glades.

about

I recorded this track three months after my dad died, my voice still sounded muted, but it also fit the mood of the track. Produced by Alex Monty. Very grateful to have worked with such great collaborators to bring my idea to life :-)

lyrics

I’m tired of all my money problems
Go for a walk
And get lost in the Glades
Walk past the allotments
Piss around
And go shopping in Sainsbury’s

It’s alright
To get lost in the fight
Like paying for sex
When you can’t afford rent

Go on
I’ll cut my hair short
Before I get on the train
A darkened room
Hide behind the door
Take my coat off in the dark

It’s alright
To get lost in the fight
Like paying for sex
When you can’t afford rent
