With “Greatness”, Olive Louise pens a song all about standing up for oneself and having the courage to step into inner confidence. This narrative is autobiographical as Olive herself has experienced those who have been disrespectful in the past. Learning to set boundaries in confrontations and knowing her own worth, “Greatness” is a true lesson Olive has shared with all of us. Lyrics showing this include, ” I know you’re scared of me / I know that you know I’m different / It would be a mistake / to pass up on such greatness / I am not one to wait.” Musically, “Greatness” is characterized by a rich and cinematic sound, blending alt pop with classical elements. It’s a captivating listen that truly demonstrates Olive Louise’s talent for creating immersive and evocative music. Sleek synths, thumping basslines, and creative beats are hallmarks in the production. The standout is Olive’s incredible vocals though and her ability to translate pure emotion in every note. The chorus is soaring and delightful and tinted with a bit of rage mirroring the song’s theme. The music video is co-directed with the artist herself and collaborator Barbara Safonkina. The video is whimsical and magical yet also haunting and dark.
Olive Louise is one of the most exciting artists to come out of New York in quite some time. With a growing catalog of unique releases and a growing fanbase, the artist brings her amazing creativity to listeners worldwide.
