“You told me I was the best you had, but that was before, I guess, you got bored.” Ouch. Everybody loves a good break-up song. It is an emotional motif which is universally relatable, hence its prevalence in popular culture. The trick, however, is to give this rehashed theme a fresh voice, a feat which was tactfully accomplished by this exciting young balladeer out of Southampton. Having lived through this particular style of break-up, I can personally attest to just how gut-wrenching it feels for your significant other to just "get bored" of you, and Barnaby's delicate croon over the gloomy hue perfectly capture that sentiment. "Bored" is a soulful and tender alt-r&b offering that is sure to resonate with listeners everywhere.
