We chatted with songsbyralph about the inspiration behind the songs on 'Flashbacks & Fantasies,' touring with CarlyRaeJepsen and loving lizzo Listen to her new EP below
The other Ariana song I equated to my EP was "Thinking Bout You." I was post-breakup, doing laps around this park with the wind in my hair and listening to that song, and thinking it was this beautiful, powerful, sad, cinematic pop song. When I was writing "Looking For You," I realized I had never really done a cinematic pop song before, so I was like, "This is what we need to do.
I wrote "Gravity" in Toronto. I had listened to a lot of music podcasts where they feature different artists and they unpack one song. I've been really enjoying that because I think it makes me more of a critical thinker when it comes to songwriting. I was thinking about that and I was listening to "One Kiss" by.
With "Headphone Season," I had just finished organizing and performing at a pro-choice benefit concert here in Toronto. I spent a lot of time around fired up women, thinking about what it means to be a female-identifying person in this climate right now. The song is something we can all relate to in the sense that we've had strangers on the street, on the subway make a comment about how we could improve our appearance that would benefit them or make them feel more comfortable.
You did a premiere with us back in March 2018 where you said that you hope to befriend Carly Rae Jepsen one day. A year later you just wrapped up a tour with her. What was it like to be able to work with her? I'm just amazed by her. I would go out and watch the show every night. She always performed with the same energy and the same joy. She's been on a world tour for a year, and that takes a lot out of you. Her stamina was impressive. The way she still connects with her fans and the way that she creates a really loving family atmosphere with her tourmates and bandmates was also really impressive to me. Every night she was like, "I love your outfit. You guys sounded so great.
