The most obvious interpretation may take it as a reminiscence on joyful times with the partner who has left: “Little Blue, reminds me of the love I had that's gone / Little Blue, in you is where those memories live on.” This culmination is heightened through the reluctant instrumentation and vocals. Throughout the song, Little Blue grows sonically to represent a variety of feelings and concepts that come to life through personification. With its hesitant guitar plucking and lyrics like “Little Blue finds me again / Creeps over my heart,” “Little Blue,” the most intriguing song on the album, explores an unnamed feeling. Towards the end of the ballad, she confronts her guilt and regret over the breakup: “And I know that I decided we had different lives to lead / Not sure what it was I thought I'd found once I was free.” Her falsetto is contrasted with the lower range of the piano chords to mirror the tension in the lyrics. “I swore I'd be fine 'til I realized that you still love me” may refer to a glimmer of hope but also shows how the feeling is hindered by the fact that the other person has not moved on. She reflects on her conflicting feelings about the breakup through paradoxical lyrics. The minor chords and slow, independent melodies she assigns to the piano interplay beautifully with Birdy’s voice, conjuring the image of her harmonizing with her beloved. In “Nobody Knows Me Like You Do,” Birdy returns to familiar territory with a wistful piano ballad that contains some of the most piercing and personal lyrics on the album. Although the song’s guitar instrumentation makes for one of the more joyous and faster tempos than others on the album, the lyrics juxtapose these upbeat sonics with a hint of melancholy about the inevitable end of the relationship or situation: “I know our days are numbered, but you don't know that I feel like that / You don't hear solitude, calling me away.” From early on in the album, she introduces solitude as part of the healing experience - a thread that she weaves through multiple songs. The last line of the chorus, “I’m a voyager, and I voyage on,” describe her very nature: free-spirited and unapologetic as she moves toward her next calling. The album’s first song depicts a departure, which can be interpreted as being from a partner, a situation, or even a country “Voyager” starts with birds chirping, a playful allusion to her stage name and an ode to spring, the season of departure. It is astonishing how she nevertheless succeeds in making this her most poetic, relatable, and comforting album yet, reflecting her growth as a person and artist. The instrumental interplay between the guitar and the piano brings out a warm, stripped-back sound and leaves behind the big, theatrical one we heard on previous albums, such as “Beautiful Lies.” Birdy’s conversational, vulnerable lyrics - which stem from the singer’s personal experience of a breakup - are undoubtedly the highlight of the album. “Young Heart” marks a turning point in Birdy’s musical career. English indie-folk singer-songwriter Birdy beautifully opens up this space in her fourth studio album “Young Heart.” “Young Heart” was released on April 30, 2021, and took four years to finish - a careful process that is reflected in the album’s narrative arc from heartbreak to healing. In our rushed daily lives, it often seems utopian to find time to reflect on past grievances.
