I really like You Like Me by Yaeger. She first made waves with her single Ocean that drew attention from blogs like The Line Of Best Fit, FAME Magazine and Radar Collective. The 20 year old Swedish singer-songwriter tells Kings, “I like to create scenarios with my music, based on either my own experience or my friends experiences. That’s what I’ve done with You Like Me. This scenario is built on the feeling of a winter in Stockholm that lasted forever, where you were chasing a love that felt so close but still so far”. Give it a listen. emil@birdswillsingforyou.com
