“Nothing’s Gonna Get You Back” is a new track from Bel-la, a Los Angeles-based artist. Depicting relatable themes of loss, the track’s evolves from more folk-friendly intimacy into a rock-friendly activeness with shades of blues. Bel-la’s suave, contemplative vocals enthrall throughout the shifting structure, touching upon elements of classic-rock amidst the modern pop flourishes.
“You’re just a memory in my mind,” Bel-la sings amidst lingering organs and a bouncy bass line. A charismatic guitar line follows as the three-minute mark approaches, adding a bluesy fervor to the melodic mix. The second half’s production is riveting with these converging elements, enhancing the track’s initial singer/songwriter tilt into a more thorough rock-forward satisfaction. “Nothing’s Gonna Get You Back” is a riveting success from Bel-la.
Bel-la expands upon the track’s inspirations:
“The inspiration for this song was really the sentiment of loss in general, loved ones passing, relationships ending etc and how even though these things are no longer in a physical form they still exist so strongly all around us and in our memories, and the fabric of our vast lives.”
