The artist pairs the track with a gorgeous music video shot in London&#8217;s world famous Rivoli Ballroom.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An absolute party-starter of a track, &#8216;No Goodbyes&#8217; features Wellingta&#8217;s sweet as honey vocals laid over an irresistible club-ready hip-hop-R&amp;B beat. While at first it seems she&#8217;s singing of the excitement of a new romance, a deeper look reveals that the true message is a love song to God, and a declaration of her devotion to her Lord. &#8216;No Goodbyes&#8217; is a testimony to Wellingta&#8217;s faith and commitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The music video for &#8216;No Goodbyes&#8217;, shot by Lutch Media at the Rivoli Ballroom, in London&#8217;s South East, is as glorious as the venue itself. The only 1950s ballroom still standing in London, it&#8217;s played host to music videos from the likes of Tina Turner, Elton John, Oasis, Florence + the Machine, Kings of Leon, Lana del Rey, and Noel Gallagher &#8211; among many others. And this is what makes the location perfect for &#8216;No Goodbyes&#8217; &#8211; the contrast between the Ballroom and Wellngta&#8217;s fresh modern style is heightened, and serves as a visual metaphor for her career and the music she makes. She enters the ballroom, smokey colours around her, where she is joined by a group of male dancers, who echo her steps, but leaving her in charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can watch the music video for &#8216;No Goodbyes&#8217; <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=T59yOx8ko1I\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=T59yOx8ko1I\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, and find out more about Wellingta and her music online on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wellingtamusic\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/wellingtamusic\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>, and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@imprsvbywellingta\" target=\"_blank\">TikTok<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_39284\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/T59yOx8ko1I?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 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=\"Wellingta - No Goodbyes [Official Music Video]\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/T59yOx8ko1I\/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><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK singer songwriter Wellingta revisits the 90s and the golden age of R&#038;B with her new single, &#8216;No Goodbyes&#8217;.
