Singer Fifi Rong returns with Only Man – the latest in a string of stunning singles from the London-based star.
Taking influence from the likes of Bjork and Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser, the tune is lifted from the avant-pop songstress ’upcoming self-produced solo album, ‘There Is A Funeral In My Heart For Every Man I Loved’.
A bittersweet single of unanswered love and longing, Only Man opens with eerie, otherworldly soundscapes before it begins to grow and develop, maturing out and embracing the wide range of Rong’s vocal capabilities.
Unashamed and filled with deep caring, the single touches on the complex nature of love with eloquent and glimmering production.
“Only Man is the epiphany of unrequited love, the saddest and paradoxically the most self-righteous thing to do as my character knows the man she loves doesn’t reciprocate but rather gives her a very small piece of attention,” explains the star.
“So she suffers alone, and sees the love blossom and wither by herself. Eventually, though, this is another funeral the character would hold in her heart before she does it all over again.”
Only Man is the latest in a string of releases from the star – including Distance, Another Me and Love Yourself First – which are expected to appear on the project.
