Grammy-nominated Ajay Mathur Shares Their New Single “Common Mistake”

THE ARTIST

Ajay Mathur, the renowned singer-songwriter and Grammy nominee, has released his latest single 'Common Mistake' from his critically acclaimed album 'Talking Loud'. This album has already won multiple awards, and the latest feather in its cap is the prestigious German Pop Foundation awards, where Ajay and his band took home four awards for 'Best English-language Album of the Year 2022', 'Best Alternative Album', 'Best Crossover Band', and 'German Alternative Award'.

THE MUSIC

The success of 'Talking Loud' continues with the release of 'Common Mistake'. Written by Ajay Mathur and Mary Lou von Wyl, this single reflects on the national psyche, particularly in the age of entitlement, self-focus, and fear. The lyrics of the song ask uncomfortable but consequential questions about conformity and the importance of discovering what makes us individual and unique.

Ajay says, "As a cultural collective we tend to make the common mistake of looking in the wrong direction or assuming that certain things in life are set in stone by the virtue of convention or tradition when we are searching for meaning. The song's lyrics, "Do you fill yourself with fear of all the things you cannot buy? There's someone whispering in your ear, about the things that make you high?" are powerful and thought-provoking, making it clear that 'Common Mistake' is a must-listen for those who want to explore the deeper meaning of life.

In conclusion, Ajay Mathur's new single 'Common Mistake' is a piece of music that challenges us to reflect on our lives and our choices. With his album 'Talking Loud' and its tracks continuing to win awards and critical acclaim, Ajay has established himself as a talented and innovative singer-songwriter. His music speaks to the challenges and opportunities of our times, and his ability to combine meaningful lyrics with infectious melodies is a testament to his skills as an artist.
