This means that the video displays the sort of power struggles we can all relate to &#8211; ones we witness in governments, courtrooms and typical daily life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It\u2019s a beautifully choreographed piece which shows Lomas-Kirton taking power back from Taylor who initially begins in the position of dominance. The power dynamic has been completely turned on its head by the time the song has ended.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So, too, has our estimation of what constitutes a good pop song. Giovanna\u2019s glacial and effortless vocals permeate the song, matching the impressive and innovative instrumentation with all the precision of a true expert. Giovanna, with her background in cinematic scoring, has the capacity to write songs which conjure up mental images and it\u2019s clear that her message has been taken and interpreted to precision in this latest offering.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Watch the gorgeous music video down below!<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_62913\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fgpuTf5oJww?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Giovanna - Young Heart Player\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/fgpuTf5oJww\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Giovanna\u2019s masterclass in sultry, ethereal pop music is brought to life by the stunning dance-fuelled music video, performed and choreographed by Kayla Lomas-Kirton and Duwane Taylor.
