Matthew Dear – “Dizzy”
Matthew Dear has released “Dizzy”, a love song shaped by the solitude and dreamlike atmosphere of writing in the hours between midnight and dawn. He describes using that quiet time to let a different, subconscious side of himself guide his songwriting.
The song follows someone repeatedly leaving and returning to the person they love, with its scene set on a dark, empty two-lane highway. Dear evokes the smell of cooling asphalt beneath moonlight and a mood suspended between opposing states: hot and cold, living and dead, departure and return.
In short
- Matthew Dear’s “Dizzy” is a late-night love song.
- It follows a cycle of leaving and returning to a loved one.
- Dear says its dreamlike mood came from writing after midnight.
