LIJO returns with second single DOG EYES and discloses a very human side in an alien track

Indie artpop artist LIJO releases her second single DOG EYES, a catchy, honest track about the fear of being vulnerable.

Is it really better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all? After showing both depth and groove in her previous single FUTURE MEMORY, LIJO manages again to combine serious topics with catchiness and danceability and captures pure human feelings in a quirky, yet poppy song.

DOG EYES addresses the inner shows we perform for ourselves; the little lies we comfort ourselves with, while deep down we know better. After FUTURE MEMORY, the release of DOG EYES proves that LIJO’s new, icy direction wasn’t a lucky shot – and there’s more to come. Her fascination for the endless weirdness of human behaviour on both a small and a big scale will continue to be mirrored in more of her work over the course of the following months.

In LIJO’s eyes, everything seems like a show: on a small scale, we all are the main characters of our own little stages, and on a bigger one we act like we are the main character in this world. She addresses the serious topics that result from this behaviour with both icy cynicism and lighthearted honesty, a combination that makes her music alien and familiar at the same time.
