Stockholm-based NOEL is a singer-songwriter of Swedish-Norwegian descent. After a knee injury derailed his sports aspirations, he turned to music as a means of channeling his passions. NOEL’s transition from a childhood focused on football to a blossoming music career highlights his resilience and adaptability. Among his previous releases are singles such as “30 Loose Ends,” “Headed North,” and “When You’re Not Mine.” His latest offering is the six-track EP titled “Headed North,” which kicks off with the song “Hurt Somebody,” accompanied by an official music video.
With its evocative blend of soulful instrumentals and vibrant beats, “Hurt Somebody” sets the stage for an emotionally charged narrative. Lyrics like “I’m sharp on every side, Ever since you left me, I cut like a knife, I can’t stop” and “I’m still so mad and so distant, So why am I out blowing kisses?” delve into the raw depths of heartbreak and the complex aftermath of a breakup. NOEL’s powerful storytelling, combined with striking visuals and just the right amount of angst, delivers a heart-wrenching pop gem that bravely reflects on the journey of healing and moving forward. So hit play and let “Hurt Somebody” guide you through the release of your inner pain.
