Sydney-based pop artist Gia Darcy has released her latest single, “I’ll Never Drink Again,” and it’s a well-produced, fun and relatable track that perfectly captures the spirit of making memories – and sometimes forgetting them. The song, which was released on February 3rd via 2030 Records, is a perfect example of Gia’s confident pop music style, which she describes as “bold and bright.”
In a recent interview with Eat This Music, Gia talked about her love for creating pop music and how it helps her express her emotions. “In my normal life, I can sometimes struggle with bearing my feelings, but I find a certain freedom in putting them into music. For some reason it’s so much easier to sing my deepest and darkest secrets rather than talking through them with friends/family,” she said. “There’s something about pop music where you can neatly capture how you’re feeling in a 3-4 min song.”
“I’ll Never Drink Again” is a prime example of this. The song is about making a mess of yourself, having fun, and then forgetting about it. Gia said that the song was “extremely easy” to write and came out in a “stream-of-consciousness way of writing.” She came into the session with her producer, Robby De Sa, knowing that she wanted to create something more rock-influenced and gritty. The lyrics just came out of her, and the result is a catchy, upbeat track that’s perfect for any party.
The song opens with a dynamic electric guitar melody that sets the tone for the rest of the track. Gia’s vocals are impressive, and she effortlessly glides between the verses and the chorus. The chorus is especially catchy, with Gia singing, “I’ll never drink again, no I’ll never drink again, I’ll never drink again, till I’m with my friends.” It’s a sentiment that anyone who’s had a few too many can relate to.
Gia’s lyrics are relatable and capture the feeling of being young and making mistakes. “When you are young, I think you should have a certain amount of freedom to make mistakes. For some people, part of figuring yourself out is going out with your friends, drinking too much, and making horrible decisions,” she said. “In this song, I give myself the freedom to leave the past in the past with ‘should I figure out what I did last night, or just forget it, bet that I regret it.’ When you do silly things sometimes it’s best for your own well-being to just forget about them and leave them in the past.”
Despite the fun and upbeat nature of the track, Gia’s vocals add depth and sincerity that make the song more than just a party anthem. “I’ll Never Drink Again” is the perfect example of how pop music can be both fun and meaningful. Gia’s ability to capture the spirit of being young and making mistakes is what makes her music so relatable.
Gia has dubbed 2023 as the year of making memories, and “I’ll Never Drink Again” is the perfect track to kick off the year. In addition to releasing more music, Gia is also planning to perform with her band more often. She’s gearing up for a headline show in May, and fans can expect to hear more of her confident pop music style.
