Hey everyone,
For today's review I will be speaking about Love Island star Antigoni's new track 'Over' and the music video for it! At the beginning of the video there are spoken words by Sophia Thaukur which are a nice introduction piece to the story behind the song. She says words including 'how did we get here, our tide was silenced too soon' suggesting that there was potentially a relationship that could have blossomed, but it was cut too short and unfortunately there will be no finding out about it now. Antigoni can be seen at various beach locations with a male actor as she is explaining the story of the relationship. She says the words 'I didn't know how to love you' suggesting that maybe she was out of her depth or was still learning how to love. She goes on to say 'you didn't want anyone above you' which could hint that this individual didn't want to be any lower than 1st place when it came to Antigoni's love, but she reveals that the same wasn't for her when they may have moved on.
Throughout the song there are many romantic shots of her and the male actor walking through Greek towns, being seen in a car and also walking across the beach and playing in the ocean, and she continues the theme of quickly ending romance by singing the words 'now it's over, I keep thinking it over, I didn't get any closure, boy you let me down down down down' which are almost a reflection for how badly the situation ended, and it would have been nice for her to be told why the relationship was ending, rather than being left without an explanation. Antigoni goes on to sing the words 'could have been a real love if you stuck around, but we won't find out because you burned it to the ground' almost suggesting that there could have been something stronger with the connection that they had initially formed, but now after his actions, that won't be something that they are going to explore.
Towards the end of the song, Antigoni said 'you said you never met someone like me' adding that 'from the very first look we felt the same' which almost suggests that both Antigoni and the male lover both had feelings for eachother within moments of meeting eachother, and this could have been somebody before her television appearance, or maybe she is speaking about a male contestant who she was on Love Island UK with during her time on the show. Antigoni also says the words 'that's why it felt so deep so easily' which is her explaining that because her feelings were so strong, that's why she felt even more heartbroken, because it must have been someone that she genuinely cared about
The song has a lovely European vibe, and she looks incredible as usual with such husky female vocals which add to the meaning of the song!
Hopefully you enjoyed my view, and until the next blog post...Goodbye!
