Alice Boman shares dreamy new single "Don't Forget About Me"
Alice Boman is back with new single "Don't Forget About Me", lifted from her forthcoming debut album Dream On.
"Don't Forget About Me" is the fourth single to be shared from Dream On, after last month's "The More I Cry", "Wish We Had More Time" and "This Is Where It Ends".
The new track features drums from John Eriksson of Peter Bjorn & John.
Expanding on her new offering, Boman says, "This song is about holding on to a fantasy about something or someone. It has happened to me a few times when I’ve been into someone, or the idea of someone, but known that it’s not gonna last or happen for various reasons. You know how it’s gonna go, but you still want hold on to some kind of illusion, just a little bit longer. You’re in some kind of dreamlike state, just to prolong the feeling. Dancing is a way for me to do that. To be in your body, in the feeling, in the moment."
Dream On saw Boman work with producer Patrik Berger (Robyn, Charli XCX) and frequent collaborator Fabian Prynn. Boman says of the record, "This album is a new way of exploring intimacy for me. It can be scary to create with other people but you have to let that other person in and not hold back. It felt so good and so right working with him [Berger] right away, It's nice to be able to let go when it's with someone you feel like you can trust."
Boman adds, "A lot of the songs spring from a feeling of sadness, something being lost or broken or just not turning out the way you wanted it to. It's a way to express yourself, making you feel a bit lighter because heartbreak and disappointment are things that make you stronger. It's nice to share these things with people because it's such a universal feeling. I hope maybe someone can find some comfort in it - we're all going through similar things. There's no happy songs here, it's a sad record, but I think it's hopeful too."
