I just love this song!








This is the debut single from Violet - aka Pixie Geldof.  It is a double A-side featuring the songs 'Y.O.U.' and 'I Come Undone'.  May 7th is the release date.


Pixie's influences, "Hole was a huge influence on me growing up in a lot of ways - their music, their look - and 'Violet' is one of my favorite songs.  The music is angry and dark and aggressive but it's still a love song; there's still a soft sentiment to it, the lyrics are fragile.  I like the juxtaposition in music buy I've kind of reversed it in my work; I wanted the music to be soft but the lyrics to be darker and heavier."


Mark Rankin recorded the material in Paul Epworth's studio, West Loundon.
