The wonderful debut album of Gia Margaret, There’s Always Glimmer, is getting a worldwide release today, including a fresh track called “Babies,” which was originally recorded as a demo a few years ago. It’s sparse and haunting as Margaret hums about the expectations of society and the consequences of generations. “It’s difficult to match the weight you’ve been given, the fear of fate,” she sings on her opening line.
“Partially why I wrote[” Babies”] was because somebody always had something to say about what to do with my life about[ my] biological clock,” says Margaret of the track. “It’s hard enough to get paid less than men do and ask these questions to ourselves as we try to navigate through life.”
