Cristina Colombo’s track “Pretty Thing” focuses on the hard truth that some relationships are just way too complicated. No matter how badly we may want someone they simply do not think the same way. We can give them all the attention in the world, and it still won’t be enough for them. While sitting and waiting around for them may seem like little to no effort it takes a huge toll on yourself. We realize that although their company is extremely nice to be around it doesn’t take away from the fact that they are only along for the chase. The dating world is so hard these days because we never know who this beautiful person in front of us truly is. “Pretty Thing” explores these same messages in a way that doesn’t make you overthink yourself but rather move on to find someone who values you and not the chase.
Once the song began, I immediately loved everything about it. The first thing that came to my mind was how I could picture this song opening up an early 2000’s romantic comedy. The entire vibe of the song felt so nostalgic and real. Especially the way her vocals encompassed the track, that was my personal favorite. As she sang so calmly and carefree about something that isn’t easy to talk about let alone sing about. Her lyrics were filled with so much energy with lines like “I’m a dreamer / I’m so patient, it’s obscene” and “You’re just a pretty thing who needs to be seen.” Colombo gave her listeners a song that was relatable but did so in a way that didn’t make you feel sad but rather hopeful and ready for the next.
Singer/songwriter Cristina Colombo found her passion for music while growing up in Los Angeles, California. As a teen she learned to play the guitar and write songs and absolutely loved everything music had to offer. During the pandemic Colombo had a ton of spare time and that was what actually sparked her musical flame once again. She strives to create songs that are honest and relatable to connect with each and every one of her listeners. Her debut album “You & Me” is out now with eleven remarkable tracks.
