Canadian Pop Star JESSIA Returns with Heartfelt Ballad “Care About Me”
Pop singer songwriter JESSIA is back with her single, “Care About Me.” With this release, the Canadian music act continues to showcase the unique way in which she tugs at the heartstrings of listeners. Offering lyricism that is as relatable as it is bittersweet, music fans can find healing and feel seen in JESSIA’s work. Inspired by a relationship where the love felt extremely one-sided, “Care About Me” is a tragic piece that tells the story of what it’s like to navigate through a failing relationship. Guided by strong vocals, the song dives into the depths of emotional pain, vulnerability, and the struggle of taking responsibility for a deteriorating connection.
The track starts with piano chords and soft vocals in true ballad fashion, and adds the gentle strumming of an acoustic guitar later on. The simplicity of the background instrumentals allows JESSIA to shine with her clean lyrics and sentimental tone. Throughout the song, it’s clear that she knows her relationship is falling apart, and that she’s better on her own, but struggles to actually pull herself away for one reason or another. Relationships are complex and the song does a great job at capturing these complexities, especially at the bridge, where JESSIA apologizes to herself for making herself continue through with a toxic relationship. This section adds a level of self-awareness and is, hopefully, the turning point needed before she’s finally able to heal.
At its core, the song is an anthem for those who feel unseen or specifically alone in their relationships, particularly romantic ones. A stirring pop ballad, “Care About Me” conclusively highlights the deep complexities of loving someone who does not offer the same type of love in return. Over the vulnerable sounds of the piano, JESSIA battles with herself, wondering why she defends this person and why she chooses their happiness over her own. “Care About Me” is more than a song. It’s a story told through the perspective of a heartbroken woman about her journey through the dark-side of love. JESSIA’S ability to create music that resonates with the collective experiences of women around the world, combined with her sheer talent, shows a real future for the pop artiste.
