Holly Humberstone is one of the wait and see kind of artists her latest single ''Scarlett'' "breaks emotional independence down in a way that re-imagines openness as something a little more certain. The single is distinct and separate from her previous output. The song avoids staying in a limbo of reliance or doubt and instead reflects a distinct revelation.
''Scarlett'' is about a moment of transformation. The heroine slowly begins to understand herself differently and to grow out of the shadow of an ex-relationship that had defined her value. The version of independence expressed in the song is acceptance more than rebellion.
''Scarlett'' is, at last, a moment of arrival. It is about reckoning with yourself, for the first time, and understanding that what matters without you is not a loss but victory. It leaves a lingering image of gentle strength based on self-knowledge.
