It takes real courage to say "I still love you" when someone has already walked away. On her latest single, rising singer-songwriter Sophia Be opens up about that exact kind of heartbreak – the quiet kind, where love doesn’t end with a blow-up or betrayal, but with distance and time. “I Still Love You” is a tender piano ballad that feels like reading a letter you never meant to send, full of vulnerability, warmth, and lingering ache.
Sophia, a Mexican-Canadian artist now based in Los Angeles, has been steadily carving out a space for herself in the world of emotional pop. This new track is her most intimate yet. Inspired by a deeply personal moment – the day her ex moved to another country – the song was written in one sitting at the piano, with the help of a friend who later built out the production. The final version features subtle yet powerful violin arrangements and a soft, elegant piano that holds space for her voice to shine. And shine it does. Her vocals are rich and soulful, carrying the kind of emotion that can't be faked.
Lyrically, “I Still Love You” touches on themes of loss, emotional distance, and the confusion that comes with loving someone who’s no longer there. “When the sun goes down and the lights go out, boy I think of you,” she sings, delivering each line with a quiet honesty that lingers. There’s no resentment here, just a hope that maybe the other person still feels it too. It’s that kind of emotional nuance that makes Sophia’s songwriting stand out. She’s not just telling us about heartbreak – she’s letting us sit with it, gently, for a little while.
Since stepping out from her early days as a background vocalist and making waves with a performance alongside Tones And I on Triple J’s Like A Version, Sophia has shown she’s more than ready for the spotlight. “I Still Love You” feels like a pivotal moment for her, one where she’s not afraid to lay everything bare. It’s the kind of song you put on late at night, maybe while staring out the window or driving aimlessly, letting it echo your own memories.
With her debut live show in LA on the horizon and a growing catalogue of emotive releases, Sophia Be is quickly becoming a name to watch. If “I Still Love You” is any indication, she’s only getting started, and we’ll be listening.
