“Heart has to work so hard”
The new tune from Blondshell is kind of a bleak grunge number, which singer/songwriter Sabrina Teitelbaum says “is really about friendship and betrayal, getting stuck in a dynamic and letting things fester.”
“It’s about pain and confusion — no one trains you for the ups and downs of a friendship between two women — but it’s also about a love so enduring that you find compassion no matter what.”
