"First Love" is the second single from Emmy's first album, titled First Love. The album allegedly draws inspiration from the Samuel Beckett short story "First Love," although the morose folk and sweetly scorned prose of this one draws a bit more on "Hallelujah (the original Leonard Cohen version)." Emmy: "I’d read Samuel Beckett's First Love and was so offended by the
main character, but I also became obsessed with it. I vaguely borrowed
the plot as an analogy of my own relationship, with myself the virgin
and my ex some horrible old man. Joke's on me though ‘cause it turns
out the female character in the book is a prostitute.”
We gave "First Love" music video by Emmy the Great a listen and yeah, it's a nice song (January, 2009).
No idea whether this will be an official single. Just check it if you want to keep updated.
