Like so many women, I’ve been called “too sensitive” more than once. So I really connect with moonsea’s moving new single “Sensitive,” which celebrates this tendency to feel things deeply.
“I grew up as a pretty sensitive kid,” moonsea recalled. “I would cry readily, laugh unreservedly and feel things fully and deeply. This got the well-meaning adults in my life worried. If I cried every time I heard a sad story, saw a bug get squashed or got told off by a teacher, how would I make it through this life in one piece?”
Over time she came to discover that “being sensitive could possibly be a good thing, a superpower even. Some of the strongest and most empathetic women were sensitive kids. Feeling deeply allows you to experience the depth of the human experience and connect with other people in a really meaningful way.”
“Sensitive” is paired with a heartwarming music video, which sees the character of Cece Moon enter the Moonville Talent Show ten times, persevering until she finally wins the judges over. Watch it and I know you’ll feel better about the world and your place in it.
