Sonia Stein’s “London Used To Be So Cool” Shows How to Move On With Grace

“London Used To Feel So Cool” is a song most people can relate to, especially anyone who has moved to a new city or become part of a new social circle where the charm and magic of the new setting for significant experiences is intermingled with new friendships and a new intimate relationship that put their stamp in your mind about what the new place represents to you. And the feeling of clouded associations when that relationship ends and friendships change thereby. Written as a paradoxically melancholy and upbeat R&B song, “London Used To Feel So Cool” seems to articulate those mixed feelings with a clarity that anger and despair would warp. Stein doesn’t sound resigned to the reality so much as conveys the sense that she’s choosing to feel it all and move on even if the specter of the past may linger.
