A Guide Through Doubts: “Stranger On A Pedestal” by Karen Harding

“Stranger On A Pedestal” by Karen Harding Karen Harding , a singer-songwriter from Melbourne, Australia, gracefully stepped onto the music scene in 2021 . Since then, her songs serve as mirrors, reflecting our deepest longings, vulnerabilities, and human connections. When we immerse ourselves in her melodies, we find echoes of our own minds, aching for love and self-discovery. Karen’s lyrics, akin to forgotten diary entries, whisper tales of lost loves, broken promises, and dreams left unfinished. Her voice, strong yet delicate and fragile like a morning dewdrop, carries the scars of our lives. The story of “Stranger On A Pedestal,” much like an exquisite porcelain creation, captivates us from a distance. Its flawless surface, bathed in alternating light and shadow, evokes our admiration. But as we draw nearer, we discern the fine cracks, the imperfections that make it undeniably human.   The unattainable figure, once elevated, becomes vulnerable, their beauty found in fragility. To

The story behind this song is both sad and a reflection of life. In brief: The ex-partner decides to flee to Stockholm, and Emilie learns all about it from a mutual friend. The broken heart becomes the origin of ‘Fake Love.’ 
The theme is wrapped in an upbeat pop track that also exudes a touch of Mediterranean flair. Emilie Thorsby impresses vocally and shows that she feels comfortable in this genre.
With a runtime of just under two minutes, ‘Fake Love’ is intentionally kept short, a decision that mirrors the transience of a relationship. In the end, we not only have a broken heart but also a fantastic song that resonates with those seeking to overcome such a situation. Emilie Thorsby kicks off her summer splendidly with ‘Fake Love,’ and it definitely makes it onto our playlist.
