GRAE släppte nyligen EP:n Permanent Maniac. Från det kan du här se musikvideon till titelspåret. Låten i sig är en kärleksförklaring till ingen mindre än Robert Smith i The Cure. Allt förklätt till en medryckande och lättsam poplåt. Sångerskan berättar:
”Permanent manic is a love letter to Robert Smith from The Cure. I’ve had a real obsession with him since I was a teenager and even went through a phase where I did my makeup like him and dressed like him. The Cure’s music hits me in a way like nothing else has, and I’m so inspired by Robert, his sound, his writing. This song is about how I love him, and he’ll never know. Permanent manic is definitely the vibe I’ve been trying so hard to create for a long time. So, thank you once again, Robert Smith (if you’re reading this, I love you).”
Till låten får vi en minst lika charmig musikvideo där GRAE traskar omkring i sitt rum tillsammans med tecknade figurer. Videon är regisserad av Iris Kim och Priya Howlader och de berättar:
”Permanent manic is a coming-of-age music video that shows the all-consuming result of having a crush. GRAE paces around her cozy room, restless, to somehow get the feelings out into words but struggles in the songwriting process. It’s a slow build-up until she finally succeeds during her epic guitar solo where we see her rocking out, unapologetically.”
