Sucker for a Lonely Heart by Taylor Roche published on 2021-09-10T02:10:29Z Taylor Roche further cements his musical roots and retro-Pop aesthetic in his new endeavour ‘Sucker for a Lonely Heart.’ His new single encapsulates a blend of 80s and 90s nostalgia with a heavy nod to influences such as Prince, INXS, Chicago and The Backstreet Boys fused with his love for modern Synth-Pop and R&B from artists like The Weeknd, Troye Sivan and The 1975. ‘sucker for a lonely heart’ is Taylor’s nostalgic, Retro-Pop statement of 2021. It explores the crushing awareness that the person you’re so emotionally invested in has moved, leaving you in a floating space of romanticising something that’s no longer there, lost in an endless game of chase. Taylor joined forces with Auckland-based Pop and R&B producer Will Henderson in bringing this idea to life in the studio. Keeping true to Taylor’s retro-Pop aesthetic, they built this track replicating a stack of 80s drums and arpeggiating, analogue synths. These drive heavily into the choruses fused with big vocal doubles that create a space of urgency, letting moments punch through on lines like “is it half-time yet?.” It’s these moments in the song that resonate the feelings of urgency and hysteria anyone would feel in this exact situation that ‘Sucker for a Lonely Heart’ tells.
