Why do we like this?

Full of raw and unfiltered emotion, London-born singer-songwriter Minke's voice shines radiantly in "Happier Than Me," the first in a collection of singles planned to be released by her this year.

"Happier Than Me" is an honest alt-pop ballad doubling as a portrait of a person’s struggle with depression and self-worth, even in times where things seem to be going well from an outsider’s perspective. Amidst minimal instrumentals in the form of a pondering, solemn piano, the spotlight shines on Minke's deep-cutting lyrics. At the peak of the song, her voice builds powerfully as she sings:

“I wish I could be someone else
Instead of trying to be happier, happier…”

Short and powerful, “Happier Than Me” is a beautiful track that will leave a strong impression, especially if it finds you at the right time.
