about

Imagine Madonna had been making out with Romy from The xx instead of Britney at the VMAs. That's "Sadnesstrain", the debut single by Linda Wolf. The singing psychotherapist leads us through the dark tunnel of her emotional mountain into the light. Synths like melting ice in spring, harp sounds reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland, a powerful, straightforward pop beat. Simply put: difficult feelings are totally okay. Uplifting, melancholic, wild. For fans of Birdy, HAIM, and Florence + The Machine

lyrics

Sadnesstrain
I’m sitting on the sadnesstrain
Knowing that it always ends
Knowing that it needs patience
Who-ho-hoo

Come over now
Oh wait, you’re with that girl now
Knowing that you will be back
Knowing that my heart goes black
Who-ho-hoo

Who-ho-ho-ho-hoo
I’m sitting in the dark while you’re out there
Who-ho-ho-ho-hoo
I’m sitting in the dark while you do her
Who-ho-ho-ho-hoo
But this won’t stop me from being true
Who-ho-ho-ho-hoo
No, it won’t stop me from loving you
You, you

Sadnesstrain
I can’t believe I’m here again
Knowing that I’m working hard
Knowing that we’re not apart
Who-ho-hoo

Where are you now, boy?
We lost our connection now, boy
Knowing that it’s dangerous, oh
Knowing that it will be us forever
And ever

I’m sitting in the dark while you’re out there
(He, he, hey)
Who-ho-ho-ho-hoo
I’m sitting in the dark while you do her
And it hurts, and it hurts
Who-ho-ho-ho-hoo
But this won’t stop me from being true
Who-ho-ho-ho-hoo
(Hey)
No, it won’t stop me from loving you
You, you

My light in the dark
Seems to be
Growing inside of me
Growing my own little light
Here in the dark
Seems to be
Guiding me away
From the tales
In my own wicked mind

I’m sitting in the dark
(I’m sitting in the dark)
While you’re out there
While you’re out there
I’m sitting in the dark
(I’m sitting in the dark)
While you fuck her
While you fuck her
But this won’t stop me
No, it won’t stop me
No, it won’t stop me
I’m sitting on the sadnesstrain
(Sitting on the)
The sadnesstrain
(Sitting on the)
The sadnesstrain
(Sitting on the)
Forever and ever and ever and ever
I’m sitting on the sadnesstrain

about

Linda Wolf Bern, Switzerland

Songs instead of self-help books – that’s Linda Wolf! The singing psychotherapist crafts tunes that delve into the vulnerability of human existence, proclaiming: All feelings are okay! Think Art Pop with an 80s flair reminiscent of Birdy, HAIM, or Florence + The Machine. With her crystal-clear vocals and synth strings, even ABBA would feel at home in Wolf’s realm of love. Right in the feels! ... more
