“The Riddle talks about someone I never could decode. I wrote this song to remember to always keep focusing on hope, that there is always a place where we feel like we belong. Hence the chorus’ mantra “Somewhere, you could be fine somewhere, you have to find somewhere, he’s not the one”. To finally find your own bedroom, where you feel safe”

“In the music video we aimed to translate this absolutely crazy feeling about obsession, that no one besides you can stop, and when you realize it’s time to let go. It takes place in Prague, Czech Republic, and it was the most intense two shooting nights of my life – continuously getting down the escalators for several hours- it most likely got close to the frenzy state I felt while writing the song.”
