Songs about devoted love can be overblown with purple prose and hackneyed premises in the pop world but NTHN brings an insight to a powerful connection that seems pretty rare in relationships in “About Her.” He sings as though he wrote down all the ways he feels loved and understood beyond there needing to be some transactional aspect to the bond. Taking that list, NTHN took the real gems and laid them out in a series of couplets that he set to a lush production of echo-y beats, an electronic string melody and sang those words as if contemplating their impact. The electronic saxophone line is even soulful in in the outro and when you hear the words you sense that it’s through the experience of the relationship that NTHN has come to know himself better and his own limitations and his gratitude in being transformed by it.
