“This song is about my obsession with love”: Harpy reveals new single, Precious

Harpy has just unveiled another track from her upcoming seven deadly sins-inspired EP, VII.

With June’s lead single Last Time all about lust, today’s excellent effort Precious focuses on love – and in fact, Harpy calls that particular sin “an obsession”.

“This song is about my obsession with love – the kind that withers flowers and stops clocks,” she admits. “Love is not an easy thing for me… it can be dangerous. To me, it’s more addictive than any drug… and once I taste it, I must consume it all. I don’t know how to hold love gently – I only know how to take until there’s nothing left. It stops being romance, it’s just a hunger. Feeding. Consuming what I crave completely, until it ceases to exist.”

VII is due out on November 7. Harpy will play her biggest headline show so far at London’s Oslo the following month, on December 1.
