Even in the impossibility of reuniting, there is this wanting a possibility. Maybe there is a better time, a different time, a new reality for “us”. That part that no matter how much of a “long, long time since I knew you” has transpired, you still wish for that someone to return. There’s this feeling that no matter how much one tries to get over someone – that certain kind of “someone” – there is a part of your heart that refuses.

Catchy and poetic, full of wishing and longing. Pop sensibilities the likes of Brian Wilson/Beach Boys weaved into the singer-songwriter brilliance that is what has always drawn me to Pete’s music. This is the most quintessential Pete sounding song to me, which may be why I feel so immediately connected to it. “Cigarillo” is my first listen favorite off the EP. I need to drive to the ocean, sit close to the waves, and play “Movies” on repeat. I’m reminded of how I felt the first time I listened to The Cure’s Disintegration album, cross-pollinated with a little Ride, and a dreamy, foreign film score. I feel like the ocean should be right outside my window as the song unfolds. Wistful (that word again), and beautiful. The ambient beginning that ebbs and flows into an ethereal vocal by Pete. Right from the start, it feels like a movie. “Break Up” by Pete Yorn and Scarlett Johansson But, at least you have Songs to Sing while you try to piece it all back together, now that you’re Apart. Anyone who’s been through a serious Break Up knows what their Singing about. Being afraid of the mess in your life, and in your self, to being afraid of age and forgetfulness, and of never sleeping well, or loving well, again. The manifestations of all those fears that your psyche plays out, they feel brought to life in this Song. “Bad Dreams” of being back together, of never being back together, of being alone. Sleeplessness leads to exhaustion, and then when you finally close your eyes, the dreams come. It’s time to be over the Break Up, at least that’s what they all keep telling you, but it’s never that easy. The give-and-take of the verses plays out like a therapy session or a confessional one-on-one with a best friend. Here is an excerpt from the single review for “Bad Dreams”: Next up is “Bad Dreams”, Pete and Scarlett’s catchy synth-pop cover of Echo Friendly’s song “Worried”. “Iguana Bird” by Pete Yorn and Scarlett Johansson Two people, flown far away from each other, still wanting, still longing, still not over it – even if they are Apart. The back-and-forth at the end from Pete’s questioning vocal of “do you like how your spending your time?” answered back by Scarlett’s “la-la-la-la-love you” says everything. I think that feeling is going to hit multiple times on this EP. Yesterdays sensibilities collide with an updated, ethereal synth sound that works so perfectly. The “la-la-la-la-love you” chorus is reminiscent of a Phil Spector “wall of sound” production. The quick start pulls you right into the EP, and the story that you can immediately feel coming with Apart. Let’s take it song by song, shall we? Apart – A Lyriquediscorde Song by Song Review Thus making this EP immediately relatable. They’ve had to sort through the rubble of loss and disappointment and sadness in order to mark a path that leads to being on your own again and going on. Two that were once an “us” have had to go on alone. Maybe it’s singing about a week later, a month, a year, or maybe even a decade. Whereas Pete and Scarlett’s first album was about breaking up, Apart feels more like the aftermath of the break.

An EP that traverses the tricky terrain of post-breakup seems fitting to dive into at the time of insomniacs, when the world around is sleeping, all except the unrequited and heartbroken. Listening to Apart in the late night/early morning is the best choice. Readers and listeners, it was worth the wait.Īpart by Pete Yorn and Scarlett Johansson Just as kids countdown the final days before summer break, we’ve been counting down to June 1, when the EP Apart, in its entirety, would finally be here. “Bad Dreams”, an excellent cover of “Worried” by Echo Friendly had us longing for more. We’ve been waiting for this release since April when Pete and Scarlett released a pre-EP single, “Bad Dreams”, a brilliant, synth-rock-pop, getting over someone/not getting over someone ode. Lyriquediscorde favorite, Pete Yorn, has paired up again with his “Break-Up” partner Scarlett Johansson for the much anticipated EP, Apart.
