Nashville-based singer and songwriter Morgan Wade returns with a poignant new release, ‘2AM in London’ showcasing her trademark honesty and raw emotion. The solemn track, produced by Wade’s bandleader Clint Wells, offers listeners a glimpse into her soul with confessional lyricism and haunting melodies.
In this solo-written piece, Wade navigates the depths of solitude and longing, painting a vivid picture of late-night introspection and yearning for connection. With plaintive wails from a steel guitar, the song resonates with melancholy and unwelcome truths, conveying the universal desire for companionship and belonging.
Reflecting on the lyrics, Wade expresses the sentiment of longing for companionship amidst the chaos of urban life, where the desire for home transcends mere geographical coordinates. The heartfelt chorus encapsulates the longing for comfort and familiarity, echoing the sentiments of anyone who has felt adrift in a bustling cityscape.
“It’s 2AM in London And I hate sleeping alone Between the neighbors that scream And this TV screen I wish someone would throw me a bone I just need you to be here I want two shadows on my wall It’s 2AM in London, baby And I just want to come home”
‘2AM in London’ marks the beginning of a new chapter for Wade following the success of her second album, ‘Psychopath,’ released in 2023. Praised by Rolling Stone, New York Times, and more, the album solidified Wade’s reputation as a versatile artist blending country, rock, and pop elements seamlessly. No Depression hailed her for her accessible narratives and skilful integration of diverse musical styles.
