Greta Stanley's third album, 'If I Get In, Where Would I Go?', is shaping up to be an introspective journey of self-discovery and healing. The latest single, 'Greatest Hit', offers a vibrant glimpse into this exploration, serving as an anthem for self-love and prioritising your own well-being.
This infectious pop gem is a testament to Stanley's songwriting prowess. 'Greatest Hit' delves into the complexities of relationships, both with others and, crucially, with oneself. It's a celebration of recognising your worth and finding someone who appreciates it, but also a reminder to nurture the relationship you have with yourself.
Produced and recorded by Cheekbone and mastered by Andrei Eremin, the track's dynamic sound reflects Stanley's artistic growth. Inspired by artists like Petey and Medium Build, 'Greatest Hit' has an irresistible energy that hooks you from the first note.
Stanley explains the dual meaning behind the song: "It's about knowing that you have a lot to offer someone, and you finally found someone who doesn’t take that for granted, but it's also a song to myself, about self-love." She speaks to the internal struggle of overcoming challenges and embracing the best version of yourself. "When you overcome these challenging things that keep you down, you could really show up for yourself... It’s about the half of you that gets hidden when you get too deep in the dark shit in your brain."
The theme of self-improvement resonates throughout 'If I Get In, Where Would I Go?'' The album chronicles Stanley's journey towards mental, physical, and emotional health, navigating the obstacles she's faced in recent years. 'Greatest Hit' captures a moment of triumph where she's actively working on becoming the best version of herself.
"I think this song is so fun," Stanley says, "and it’s entering the stage of the album where we’re in this process of working through our shit mentally. I’m going to therapy, I’m reflecting on my behaviour and my role in things." It's a candid acknowledgement of the ongoing effort required for self-growth, but also a joyful celebration of the person she's becoming.
'Greatest Hit' isn't just a catchy tune; it's a reminder that self-love is a journey, not a destination. Greta Stanley invites us to join her on this path, embracing our own 'Greatest Hits' along the way.
