Being heartbroken is never fun, but for a song about exactly that, “A Million Heartbreak Songs” makes it seem like a real chic experience with its absolute earworm of a chorus. Hitting the play button immediately delivers it right to your ears. It makes for good song to walk through the city to.
Yet, by the last bridge of the song, you’re reminded of what feelings actually come with having your heart broken. The powerful, anguished vocals of lead singer Jakob Amir shine through, and for anyone who enjoyed Leoniden’s past singles such as “Sisters” or “People,” you’ll thoroughly enjoy this last part.
All in all, “A Million Heartbreak Songs” captures the two sides of being heartbroken— pretending to be cool and over it, yet still suffering from those lingering, ravaging feelings on the inside.
The song was released as part of the German band’s latest album, Sophisticated Sad Songs.
