Marie Naffah’s new song, “I Want More,” is a perfect representation of a longing that many of us have experienced in the past two years. When life was put on hold by the pandemic, Naffah got back to live music and rediscovered her love for it through a fifty-shows-in-fifty-days tour. The song is a mix of soft ballad and torch song with the help of powerful pop choruses, melodic guitars and her powerful soulful voice that is heard in the song.
Despite the fact that the song does not directly relate to the pandemic, its message of “I Want More” is a reflection of the longing for the adventure and the pursuit of dreams. Naffah says, “The EP deals with aspects that we have all gone through in the recent past, such as the primal desire to strive more and live more.” It is a song of victory, a song for those who want to find happiness in the simplest things in life.
