Alicia - Unplugged

Project EarthBridge، Leyton Green

Alicia · 2022

Project EarthBridge revisits Alicia with an unplugged version of the song, replacing the original production with a more stripped-back approach that brings its seaside imagery into sharp focus. Written around the relationship between an elusive woman and the unpredictable nature of the ocean, the song uses the sea as its central metaphor. Alicia becomes something impossible to completely understand, while her admirer offers himself as a safe harbor. The result is a relaxed summer song filled with images of beaches, waves, mist and open water. The unplugged setting gives those ideas a more intimate feel, allowing the songwriting to sit closer to the surface. Originally released in May 2022, the song has since received radio play across several international markets, including the United States, Mexico, Peru, Uganda, Namibia and Brazil. It has also been played on Sweden’s P4 Sörmland, one of the country’s major regional radio stations. This new version gives the song another life while keeping its central idea intact. Rather than relying on a large arrangement, it lets the melody and ocean-inspired storytelling carry the track. For listeners discovering the song through the unplugged recording, Alicia offers a gentle introduction to the songwriting, balancing romantic longing with the unpredictable character of the sea.
