Sarah Wolfe – I’m A Star
Sydney music journalist turned alt-pop singer-songwriter Sarah Wolfe is back with a great track. Her new single I’m A Star is a tongue-in-cheek assessment of the online world’s shameless desperation to look cool.
She explains: “I wanted to look into the duality of social media – because I love it, but I also hate it… and so does everyone I think. Social media often turns into a highlight reel of all the amazing things people are doing, and I can’t help but think ‘Oh my god, everyone’s perfect and incredible and talented, so how come I’m such a piece of shit…’. But then I realise I’m often just doing the same thing. Acknowledging this feeling of disconnect hasn’t solved the anxiety I feel around being online, but it is a start.”
I’m A Star was co-written by Carla Wehbe, whom Carte Blanche Music followers will know from epic tracks like Hurts To Love You and Is Forever Off The Table? Wolfe’s partner Xavier Dunn produced the song. With its breakbeat-like drum rhythm the resulting tune has a distinct Madchester feel. It’s another cracker!
I’m A Star by Sarah Wolfe is the new Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. That means it’ll feature prominently at the top of the blog for a whole week.
