Brianna Musco’s My Only Pretty Thing Lyrics an Absolute Home Run
In a day and age where countless musicians are putting out new music constantly, it can be very difficult for aspiring songwriters to break through current trends and create a following that is legitimately interested in their every move. Brianna Musco has done just that, keeping her fans on their toes with back-to-back smash singles, most notably her latest release My Only Pretty Thing that came out this past Friday, March 26th.
A young yet highly talented and dynamic performer from New Jersey, Brianna Musco is a name that has taken over music marquees and radio waves in recent times due to her relatable yet poetic writing and impressive musicianship. A multi-instrumentalist, she knows what it takes to make music that many people will love instantly while also staying true to herself and her mission. Musco is a huge advocate for mental health awareness, breaking down gender norms, and body image acceptance.
In her latest release My Only Pretty Thing, Musco perfectly executes creating a catchy pop song while also incorporating a well-thought-out lyrical meaning that ranks up there with songs by artists such as Demi Lovato, Halsey, and fellow New Jersey native, Fletcher. You can listen to My Only Pretty Thing here.
The hook of this single revolves around the central idea of a “pretty thing” which is a metaphor for something one may like about themselves. In a time when social media constantly creates unrealistic expectations for everyday users, it can be very difficult to find certain characteristics one may enjoy about themselves. This is how Musco’s lyrical genius in this song is unique to other current pop singles. Brianna goes into detail about her own battle with self-doubt, implying that the only thing she liked about herself (her only pretty thing) was found in the person she was dating. Her relatability to define her self-worth based on the people she is associated with rather than her true inner beauty is one of the most timeless topics an artist can write about. Being able to put those feelings into words is why we have dubbed this new track a lyrical masterpiece.
My Only Pretty Thing is the self-loving anthem we needed to hear to remember our worth, especially during a global pandemic. Brianna’s message is clear: find what makes you happy and spread positivity, begin to love yourself again, and become unapologetically yourself.
