Angela Parchetta – Never Again (2022)

Angela Parchetta is bringing the self-love summer anthem you never knew you were missing with her single ‘Never Again’. The bright and upbeat single encourages us all to recognise our own greatness and to shrug off negativity. Pushing us to stop second-guessing ourselves, the bright instrumentation and sweet vocals pack a serious empowering and uplifting punch that is sure to fill you with confidence.

The single started with a conversation between friends, about how their lives are not together enough for them to ever be houseplant people. This conversation spiralled into a consideration of why they think this and how they have been boxing themselves in. Drawing on the song-writing skills she has honed since 15, Parchetta brings bright upliftment to frank, yet sweet, lyrics.



The sweet tones of the piano that open ‘Never Again’ is bright and happy. Through this line, you are filled with the feelings of a good summer day that you want to spend doing all the things that you love. The piano-driven melody is undeniably upbeat and uplifting as it leaves a trail of glittering happiness in your veins. There is a contemporary pop touch to the music that is enhanced by the clicking notes that make their way into the sound later in the track. As the chorus hits, there is this bounce to the piano line that makes you want to skip through streaming sunlight. There is no space for negativity and unhappiness in the melody, as these emotions are chased away by the bright light of the music.

While the melody is able to effortlessly chase the darkness from your life, it is the vocals that provide the empowerment and true upliftment of the track. Parchetta’s voice is as sweet as the opening piano line and tickles your senses like a cool breeze on a hot summer’s day. Through the opening verse, she draws you into a happy space that you have cultivated, to ensure that you are completely comfortable. As she leads up to the chorus, she considers how the peace of this space has always been within her reach. The chorus hits you with a sparkle of empowerment and the understanding that you are in control of your life and you dictate what happens.

With her single ‘Never Again’, Angela Parchetta brings us the bright and sweet summer upliftment anthem we never knew we needed. The melody shines with happy energy that lifts your spirits and chases away any negativity. Her vocals drip with sweetness as she empowers every listener and lets you know that you are in control of your life.
