‘Your Aching Words’ serves as an opening chapter, a conceptual work exploring life, death and the liminal space in between. The track follows a central character who is left comatose after being hit by a car on the way to a house party. ‘Your Aching Words’ is rooted firmly in the real world, setting the scene in the moments before, and unknowingly during, the accident itself.
“‘Your Aching Words’ is speaking of a lovers’ conflict. It goes into the fallout from seeing them with someone else and the pain that causes. The track ends with a soliloquy-esque fourth wall breaking confession to the lost love.”
Formed in March 2023, SoftTop began as the alias and latest brainchild of songwriter Miles Goodall. SoftTop pairs honest story-like lyrics with generous decorations from a seven piece band (Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboards, Clarinet, Cello, and Flute). SoftTop’s music aims to pull at your heart strings, even if only very gently.
