We previously featured Sabrina Nejmah when she wanted us to break free from superficiality with her profound debut single, Deep End, so naturally, we couldn’t wait to hear her latest release, Don’t You Worry, and share our experience with you!
Drawing us in with an airy riser and a sublime saxophone performance, tapping into a jazz adjacency, Sabrina Nejmah opens Don’t You Worry with charm and celestial prose as she sings, “I woke up onboard a starship on its way to Mars, just a tiny object in a dark sky full of stars…”
In essence, the whimsical song is about two lovers traveling together on a quiet journey through space. The concept of the vast universe makes them feel small but safe together. It captures everyday routines in an extraordinary setting. For example, simple acts like breakfast, work shifts, and shared smiles feel both intimate and tender.
Their connection grounds them as Earth fades behind. At its heart, Don’t You Worry is about trust, love and uncertainty. The most relatable message is that the future is unknown, but the couple faces it side by side, and reassurance replaces fear as they drift forward together.
We appreciate the wholesome nature of the song and the charisma that Sabrina Nejmah exudes with her delivery. Fans of MARINA, and Lily Allen might be able to connect with what Sabrina Nejmah is creating, but there is also a David Bowie-esque sentimentality that comes to life.
As a reminder, Sabrina Nejmah is a young Hamburg-based songwriter who creates sensitive, original music with her father. Her range is sublime and her timbre and energy are absolutely captivating. We deeply connect with the escapist tendencies of the track, which feel important and much needed as society faces various turmoils.
We have added Don’t You Worry to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS playlist, whilst we continue to stream Sabrina Nejmah‘s debut single, Deep End, and anticipate future releases from the rising star!
