She’s writing for herself again, and she’s back with not one but two top-tier pop offerings. The double a-side is a yin and yang approach. On the one side we have ‘Stay’; the hard-hitting story of a toxic relationship told from the perspective of a person that hasn’t yet realised that they can get out of it. And on the other side, we’ve got ‘Happy Ever After’; delving into the lighter and fluffier side of relationship woes but given from the perspective of a person that is seemingly threatening to get out of it on a daily basis! The former sounds like it could have been a Kygo collab, with the latter coming across as a lost ABBA classic. Both showcase why Ina Wroldsen is just as vital to pop music as an artist as she is as a songwriter.
