‘Feel it Change,’ a mellow indie rock song by Stella Donnelly, contains the refrain, “I love you baby, but I’m scared to be near you. It’s not the same, it’s not the same when you’re here.”
.
It addresses the strange strain of relationships, particularly at a time when so many declarations occur in a social media DM. Is it forever or just another situation-ship?
Stella Donnelly is from Australia, which remains a hotbed of great music. Could it be the Vegemite? This particular tune has just a touch of melodic dissonance, is alt-country enough to evoke an old Ford, parked in a meadow of daisies.
Topping off this sonic sundae is a sprinkle of fairy-dust courtesy of jangly guitar. Combined with the song’s short and sweet duration, it makes for a happy bit of melancholy.
