Following his exciting collaboration with Lily Meola and countless singles like “C’est La Vie” and “Have You Ever Loved Someone,” Liverpool-based artist BANNERS releases another beautiful ballad track alongside the release of his studio album All Back to Mine. In his recent track, “Life’s Just No Fun,” BANNERS captures a mixture of sadness and introspective lyrics, within a gentle, upbeat melody.
While the title seemingly appears self-deprecating, the song conveys the sentiment that life can lack its full enjoyment without the presence of someone you truly care about, BANNERS’ album as a whole delivers a unique fusion of joy and sorrow, set against a backdrop of light, upbeat musical arrangements.
He sings, “Life’s just not fun without you hear / The colors run if you’re not near / You make the bad days disappear.”
“I put my heartstrings all over this album. You want to fill your life with experiences, don’t you? And the more of them, the better.” Nelson adds, “I can’t judge what’s good and what isn’t anymore. All I can do is try to make something that matters.”
