Why do we like this?

"St. Cecilia" is the latest single from Ontario five-piece The Medicine Hat.

A catchy blend of indie rock and electro pop, "St. Cecilia" recalls Fantasies era Metric, with singer Nabi Sue Bersche's distinctive vocals once again the main attraction. 

Read about Bersche's thoughts on the track and the video here:

"St. Cecilia" is a song for all the men who have ever harassed me. It's a song for all the long stares and salacious grins, all the licked-lips and hey-sweethearts, all the shadows that walk a little too close behind me. It's about the thick skin I put on when I walk alone or I'm on stage. I love the power of that skin, but I hate that I need to be tough to feel safe. Now a brief glance in the mirror turns to a thousand eyes ogling me up and down, unkind hands fussing with my appearance. They impair a kindness I used to carry so easily. "St. Cecilia" is my constant companion. The patron Saint of music, she's with me in every dark bar, on every walk home. Watching my drink, watching my back, whispering a sweet melody in my ear."
