Track of The Day: Aimée "Don't Bother (Acoustic)"

Dublin born Aimee’s single was already the ultimate break-up anthem. Reaching the number one top spot on iTunes with this debut, Aimée has released a low-key, acoustic sibling of her hit.

Growing up on ‘90s powerhouses like Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears, Aimée has taken inspiration from their mantras of independence and confidence. She refuses to be a victim and takes charge of her own destiny.

The intimacy brought in with an acoustic version helps deliver the pain and hurt moreso than the empowering pop version. With just the lone guitar as her instrument and her own vocals, the true power of Aimee’s voice shines through. This song is the perfect remedy for anyone who is hurting and needs a pick-me-up to realise their self worth.

The message is as clear as day, don’t bother crawling back after you hurt Aimée, she’ll be gone.
