Swedish artist and prodigious songwriter SHY Martin (real name Sara Hjellström) has just dropped a brand new single titled “Nobody Likes Moving On.”
Speaking on the new song and the creative process behind it, SHY explains:“‘Nobody Likes Moving On’ was written the day after we wrote ‘Keep You Mine.’ We were talking about break ups and about moving on. In my past relationships I’ve moved to another city after they’ve ended and through that been able to easily have a fresh start, with new relationships and friendships. The conversation led on to our current relationships and I realized how horrible and hard a break up with my current boyfriend would be as we have so many friends in common and work with the same people in the same industry. We’re also completely in love with the same small part of Stockholm where we spend most of our time in the same favorite cafés, shops and restaurants. One of the songwriters came up with the starting line ‘we can build a wall downtown,’ and we continued the whole song out of that simple idea of dividing up friends and places so as not to run into each other. In the end breaking up is not easy for anyone who goes through it, and the song highlights that.”
