Lorelei Marcell is an artist who blends elements R&B, and alt-pop into her work; however, her newly released “i will always love your ghost – Stripped” is a standalone reverie where Marcell shines as a vocalist. Written about coping with loss, the single plunges through memories and preserves the spirit of a lost relationship in the ether.
“i will always love your ghost – Stripped” glows with ethereal echoes of breathlessness, a saccharine piano riff swimming beneath the surface, and a cathartic yet poised vocal from Marcell. The lyrics are hauntingly poetic as Marcell catches glimpses of a past lover in almost everything she does. She sings, “I see strokes of your energy/ Painted on the canopy/ Projected on the city streets/ I’m moved by its insanity.” The single is a graceful acceptance of loss that finds beauty in heartbreak and ruminates on a love once had.
Lorelei Marcell’s original version of “i will always love your ghost” was featured on America’s Got Talent and will be featured on a forthcoming episode of Love Island US. AGT judge Simon Cowell remarked on his instagram feed, “This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard in a very long time.” Originally from Boston, Marcell made the jump to Los Angeles to pursue music.
