Sam Palladio Instagram – ‘Something On My Mind’ out everywhere now! Watch the official music video on my YouTube channel at the link in my bio directed by @jackwhitefield. ‘Something On My Mind’ is the heartbeat to this chapter of my life. It’s my attempt at putting into melody and words what my late Mum Sally meant to me. It felt right to lead with this song as my first single and as a dedication to her nearly five years later. It’s hopefully a song that will bring people together in our shared experience of loss.   The chorus lyric “There’s something on my mind, it haunts me every night, the perfect summers day, before we lost the light” is one I’m most proud of and in my mind symbolizes mum being the light of our lives and the darkness once it fades. I liked the joy and beauty of the line on its face value, as it reminds me of youthful summer days on Cornish beaches, but also liked the dichotomy it created when put into the context of loss. Ultimately, I felt that it allows her to live forever through song and that’s a beautiful comfort. With that notion in mind, I also hid a tiny voice clip of her at the start of the song. Much to you all and thank you for coming on this journey with me.
