While a lot of things are going very well in her personal
life right now – a few weeks after her marriage Samora
gave birth to a little daughter in October – the song
“Never Thought” revolves around more painful aspects of
the universal theme of love: In this case, it’s relationship
problems with a dishonest, unfaithful partner and the
disbelief that suddenly nothing is the way it was and the
initially so beautiful moments belong to the past. Samora
sings about this heartache theme with strong R’n’B and pop
borrowings and wonderful, catchy punchlines over a
warm, bouncy Afrobeat track produced by Kiro
MusicMaker and Res Staudenmann.
“Never Thought” is now released as a single six months
after its initial release as part of her great album
“Chameleon“, including a video clip whose concept was
again realized by Samora, Res Staudenmann and video
editor Kalouk from La Reunion. Intimate, warm images
reflect the very personal lyrics of the melodious Afropop
song.
