Australian singer E^ST released "Life Goes On" on 29 September 2017, a song that took shape in UK writing sessions with producer Jim Eliot. As she tells it, the moment Eliot played her a piano line she knew her subject: something close to the bone, the people who are gone but still leave their mark on you, and the hard business of missing them while learning to let go.
That's heavy freight for a track this light on its feet. Camilla Patini of Purple Sneakers heard a strong voice with real emotional depth, carried by a breezy, dance-leaning beat that runs against the sadness underneath. The song had staying power, too: it went platinum in 2021.
