Rauli V takes the o.g. ride-or-die couple as the namesake inspiration for his new single, “Bonnie & Clyde.” This ear-worm of a heartbreak anthem is about the love that you thought would be by your side until the very end but unexpectedly abandons you, leaving your whole world crushed and defeated. The angst felt is perfectly portrayed throughout the single as heard in Rauli V‘s emotional vocal range.
“Bonnie & Clyde brings the energy booster you need hidden behind your teen angst. This sad emo anthem hits on that mood after coping with loss where everything reminds you of the person you’ve just lost. It has simple riffs, energetic drums and packs a punch at the end. The intro of this song was the first riff I played that started this entire project. I still remember the chills I felt the first time I sang the hook over that guitar riff. I wrote this song thinking about how it would make me feel alive, which is why once it starts the energy never falls.” – Rauli V
