Anna Vrahliotis Shares Her Brand New EP “A Little Thing Called Love”
With bright vocals and brutally honest lyrics, Anna Vrahliotis proudly calls herself a pop singer-songwriter. At 19 years old, she has released three solo-written EPs, has performed at the notorious Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, TN, and has had several articles written about her music.
Anna returns to the music scene with her new EP, “A Little Thing Called Love.” Like her other records, Anna is the sole writer, for which songwriting she takes the most pride in. Written in two months, this EP is abundant in vivid imagery for which Anna is known. The tracklisting is purposeful, creating a story of unrequited love.
Beginning with a playful synthpop song, “This Is” describes a teenage love story pursued by naive remarks and youthful imagery. This theme continues in track two, “Call You Mine,” where we realize the love story has ended. The opening line makes this apparent with the lyric, “How am I supposed to handle this right now? The fact you’re leaving me and won’t come back around.”
Track three, “Faker,” is where her youthful infatuation morphs into something a bit more profound. Reminiscing this lost lover, Anna uses her skill of vivid imagery to bring this scene to life, describing moments of singing in garages and being afraid to speak her truth. Still grasping the remains of youthful lust that began this EP, we move onto track four: “Friends.” One particular lyric in this song encapsulates the essence of the entire EP: “And I know you weren’t trying to trip me up, but I fell head over heels.” This is where Anna pushes aside her callow puppy love and hones in on the raw emotions following unrequited love.
“A Little Thing Called Love,” the title track of this EP, holds the number five spot in the tracklist. Released as a single on June 30th, this song is where her perspective on love changes from naive ideations to remorseful revelations. This is where we focus on her journey through heartbreak rather than what the relationship was. The sixth and final track on the “A Little Thing Called Love” EP is “Feel Love,” a song about recognizing your worth. As her youth presence slowly returns in this song, Anna describes how she deserves a love that is truly something, not just the idea of something. With the bridge that ends the EP, “To feel love and be loved by someone, I have to love myself,” she realizes that love is not wondrous and wild until you have a strong sense of self.
