Eora/Sydney emo-pop act The Admired are serving up serious nostalgia with their latest single “Dancefloor.” Press play and let yourself be transported back to the dances of your youth!
Vocalist Bianca Davino says the single “captures the feeling of landing exactly where you’re meant to be, even if just for a fleeting moment. It’s not about ticking off major milestones, but rather finding magic in just living the artist’s life. For the song’s protagonist, fulfilment comes from meeting fascinating people or being at a culturally significant event.”
Bianca wrote the lyrics for “Dancefloor” from the perspective of a protagonist that embodies an idealised version of herself.
“I wanted to create a character who fully embodies the part of me that wishes to be the ‘it girl’ at the most exciting events — someone completely immersed in the moment, unconcerned with the future. She’s a projection of who I sometimes wish I could be, even though I know I’m not naturally like that. I may be too anxious about the future, but I can create someone who isn’t and live as her for 3 minutes when I sing this song.”
“Dancefloor” comes from The Admired’s upcoming mini EP, which we’ll hear later this year.
