Ella Mai Crumbles Under Love's Pressure in New Track
9 Feb
Summary
- Ella Mai's new album features 'There Goes My Heart,' a track exploring complex love.
- The song shifts from ballad to passion, reflecting contained emotions.
- Mai's vocal performance and the music's rhythm reveal her hidden feelings.

Ella Mai, known for her breakout hit "Boo'd Up," has released a new album titled Do You Still Love Me?. The opening track, "There Goes My Heart," delves into the demanding and disarming rhythms of intense love.
Initially, the song adopts the familiar Mustard-style piano and finger snaps of a ballad. Mai navigates between emotionally distancing herself and desiring closeness with her lover. This introspective style is comfortable territory for the London R&B singer.
A sudden drum fill disrupts the song's flow, introducing a sense of pent-up passion that Mai attempts to suppress. Her ostensibly aloof tone about not wanting to get her hopes up is challenged by the track's intricate construction.
