"Money" by Eliza May: Song Review

3 words: Radiant, Riveting, Resourceful.

With grooving strings, trickling synths, and dynamic drums, Eliza May offers financial grievances followed by a hopeful rejection. She kicks off her most recent single “Money” with an active sound and biting lyrics that communicate confinement and escape, simultaneously. Running vocals introduce a flexible bridge that builds a clean chorus that repeats for emphasis. With lyrics like “I don’t need your help/ I don’t need your money,” May pushes against “handouts” in a world where finances are a heaving burden. This produces a duality that invites the track to help Eliza May vent all about money in a buoyant single. Eliza May’s vocals have a fluctuating attitude brimming with optimism and pride that makes a statement. The track closes with a final exaggeration of the chorus by percussion followed by a cool recollection of a soundscape that softens Eliza May’s jabs. This track empowers listeners to believe in themselves, despite their potential financial situations.
