Drawing inspiration from the likes of Lorde, and Zara Larsson, Noella&#8217;s vocals are deep and penetrating, while the electronica infused instrumentals are sparse and provide a delicate platform for Noella&#8217;s voice. The song itself appears to be a follow-up to &#8216;Unrequited&#8217; in more ways than one, with Usborne telling of a relationship that is going nowhere fast, where communication has broken down perhaps irrevocably. The singer is deeply contemplating whether she is able to trust the other ever again &#8211; indeed, can she trust anyone &#8211; she&#8217;s broken. The song is deeply personal, and the feeling is that it comes from personal experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Noella Usborne has seen tremendous support since the release of her debut, with fans and listeners coming from all over the world. &#8216;Unrequited&#8217; received 12,000 streams on Spotify alone in its first week, with listeners coming from more than 67 countries. This saw the track come to the attention of Spotify&#8217;s editors, who added it to a &#8220;Fresh Finds&#8221; playlist, meaning her debut ranked her among many more established artists.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Not A Chance&#8217; will be available on all major platforms from April 19.
