Belgian-born, Australian-based singer-songwriter Romanie returned ahead of the weekend with her insatiable new effort, I Won't Yell. Reimagined from an early folk song written years prior, the track's punchy melodies and power-house pop energy delivers a completely new spin on the idea. Speaking about the process, Romanie shares, “We turned this small acoustic song upside down into this powerful statement, keeping basically all the lyrics and giving them a new meaning. The song is about not being heard as a woman: oftentimes we get called ‘too much’ or ‘too loud’ with the result of keeping our emotions to ourselves, or not speaking up about the things that we want to. ‘I Won’t Yell’ was a fun song to make: letting go of my constant self judgement with the nudge of Tom and Adam, who let me yell in the vocal booth.” Take a listen below. ‘I Won’t Yell’ is the third single lifted from Romanie’s forthcoming album, It’s Not That Funny, due out Feb 20 via Community Music.
