Ashe: Moral of the Story

Ashe sings out of her heart without ever sounding like she is doing more than talking. But that kind of singing/talking sounds so inviting, powerful and natural that is so very hard to not fall for her. Of course it’s hard not to see bits of Lana Del Rey in her sound, but we can’t help to feel that Lana Del Rey would love to have her pace, her flow, her sense continuous of melody. Above all, Ashe sounds always dynamic, even when she is singing only on top of a gentle piano.


Ashe: Moral of the Story

Moral Of The Story, her newest single to date, is the perfect example of just that. This is a multi-layered and ever-changing song, that combines creativeness, melancholy and still some bits of past sonority into a perfect pacey track. Being a song about heartache and moving on with meditation, it’s just a delight for (we believe) every single human on the planet.

In some way this is a song that has no gender, no genre, no feeling, but all of them. The lyrics are partially written by Billie Eilish, and the whole theme was inspired Ashe divorce and the sense of why things fail.

Ashe: Moral of the Story

Ashe: Moral of the Story Lyrics:
so I never really knew you
god I really tried to
blindsided
addicted
thought we could really do this
but really I was foolish
hindsight it’s
obvious

talking with my lawyer she said where’d you find this guy
I said young people fall in love with the wrong people sometimes

some mistakes get made
that’s alright that’s okay
you can think that you’re in love
when you’re really just in pain
some mistakes get made
thats alright that’s okay
in the end it’s better for me
that’s the moral of the story babe

it’s funny how a memory
turns into a bad dream
when running wild
turns volatile
remember how we painted our house
just like my grandparents did
so romantic
but we fought the whole time
should have seen the signs

talking with my mother she said where’d you find this guy
I said some people fall in love with the wrong people sometimes

some mistakes get made
that’s alright that’s okay
you can think that you’re in love
when you’re really just in pain
some mistakes get made
thats alright that’s okay
in the end it’s better for me
that’s the moral of the story babe

they say
it’s better to have loved and lost
than to never have loved at all
that could a load of shit
but I just need to tell you all

some mistakes get made
that’s alright that’s okay
you can think that you’re in love
when you’re really just engaged
some mistakes get made
thats alright that’s okay
in the end it’s better for me
that’s the moral of the story babe
