“Different Light” by Liz Mann is a high energy track that offers an inspiring message and a danceable arrangement. Mann, a talented artist with an aptitude for crafting pop songs with dynamic sonic journeys, sings about that realization that you have the power to change your future. Change is scary, but it can be empowering to embrace that and seek a change that will improve your life. Looking forward to the future, instead of being apprehensive about it, is a shift that can immensely improve your life.
The track immediately opens with energetic synths and ear worm melodies, getting you on your feet from start to finish. Little sparse moments before the choruses suspend and satisfy the listener’s expectations in an impactful way, and the attention to detail in each moment of the arrangement sets this song apart. Rippling drum rhythms heighten the energy, and synth textures move in tandem with the vocal melody for a fun effect. “Different Light” is reminiscent of classic 80s synth pop merged with modern melodies, offering a vibe that is both nostalgic and fresh.
Lyrics like “every time I close my eyes, see things in a different light” and “no going back” show the resolve that Mann has built to chase the life she wants. She works to shift her perspective, knowing that falling back into old habits will only hurt her. The bridge is extra catchy, using overlapping parts to take the energy to a whole new level. Mann repeats “I can hear it, hear it calling, something calling, calling for me,” eliciting hope and excitement in the listener.
