The song uses the autumn/fall eason as a metaphor for the end of a relationship.</p><div>Last 2023, <strong>Belle</strong> launched the first album installment, <a href="~/"><u><strong>Somber,</strong></u></a> which has already earned <strong>18 million streams</strong> on<strong> Spotify</strong> featuring the hit singles <a href="~/"><u><strong>“Somber and Solemn”</strong></u></a> and <a href="~/"><u><strong>“Bugambilya.”</strong></u></a> She also embarked on her first face-to-face solo major concert <strong>Beloved</strong> held at the <strong>New Frontier Theater</strong> where she showcased her popstar image in front of a sold-out crowd. <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LfZWCRusFAQ?si=rdEEOVdgI7sLVjpf" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Z9lMnImerWo?si=u8bnZ5_nvtS1A8Z4" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>Living up to its title, <strong>Somber </strong>was a more introspective and self-reflecting version of the acoustic pop music that <strong>Belle</strong> aced on her debut affair <a href="~/"><strong><u>Daylight</u></strong></a>.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0NS4k5uksXM?si=DNfYv3yZyAIQN3Os" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8c_yLhKebqM?si=pZXVGM9ngxPJHymZ" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>One Music PH was fotunate to get a preview of the album, and here are our track-by-track thoughts:</p><p>Track #1 <u><strong>&quot;Walang Pake&quot;</strong></u> has that light bluesy pop-rock vibe. Written by Trisha Denise (who wrote a lot of Belle&#x27;s songs, including &quot;Sigurado&quot;), the song is about not giving a flying f*ck about other people&#x27;s opinions on one&#x27;s relationship.</p><div><iframe allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="314" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=314&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fstarpopph%2Fvideos%2F590507769932616%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=560&amp;t=0" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" width="560"></iframe></div><p>Track #2 <strong>&quot;Shot Me Right Through&quot; </strong>has that breezy and hummable vibe. It&#x27;s about a girl who fell in love quickly with someone she just met , capturing the high that comes out of it.</p><div><iframe allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="314" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=314&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fstarpopph%2Fvideos%2F253852434399758%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=560&amp;t=0" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" width="560"></iframe></div><p>Track #3 <strong>&quot;Nobody Else&quot;</strong> was written by Ms. Soul Supreme herself <a href="~/"><u><strong>KZ Tandingan</strong></u></a>.
