Ashe - Me Without You Video

To coincide with the release of her new fourteen track album, 'Ashlyn', Ashe has shared a video for her latest single 'Me Without You'. Ashe's debut album release follows the five previous singles already lifted from it, as well as her double A-Sided single from earlier this year, 'The Same/Real Love'. 

Ashe started sharing tracks from her long awaited debut last July with the release of a re-imagined version of 'Moral Of The Story' featuring One D's Niall Horan. Since then Ashe has released 'Save Myself', the album's opening track 'Till Forever Falls Apart', 'I'm Fine' and more recently the reflective, 'When I'm Older'. 

'Me Without You' is a gloriously light track that skips along with a youthful energy and a Beatles like score. There's also musical theatre and drama to be found on Ashe's new single. The up-tempo song is further enhanced by some very well worked strings and a slight shift in the delivery of her vocals. At one point Ashe sounds a little like Billie Eilish on 'Therefore I Am', which is no bad thing. The self affirming track is an anthem for our time with Ashe singing, "But I can be me without you, I don't feel lost without you, Go find yourself, You let me down.....You don't believe that it's true, Go find yourself, You let me down, Down, down, down, down."

The singer from San Jose has excelled herself on her latest track bringing a lightness of touch and an engaging sound to a song that is both a slightly odd curiosity but also a brilliantly conceived piece of pure pop.

In a 'don't try this at home' moment during the video, Ashe dances barefoot on top of a bar across broken glass with her bloody soles colouring the marble. Seemingly oblivious to the pain she dances on before being caught by her miming cast of extras. Some people's pain threshold is obviously greater than others! Either that, or she's completely distracted by her break-up? Either way, we love it.
