The indie‑pop Scottish songbird ili — known offstage as Emily Middlemas — is back in her boastful, bubblegum‑bright era with “Tongue Tied,” a standout cut from her latest album ‘Its Giving.’ The track is pink‑coded confidence: flirty, fierce, and dripping with that signature ili sparkle.
For this feature, we took the only existing live performance footage of “Tongue Tied” and dubbed over enhanced official album audio to create a crisp, elevated hybrid — the best of both worlds. The performance itself was captured live at Omeara, London on 24/11/23, showcasing ili in her rawest, most magnetic form.
“Tongue Tied” thrives on playful bravado. It’s the kind of track that feels tailor‑made for neon nights, glossy lips, and a confident strut down any city street. ili’s voice glides between sweetness and bite, giving the song a delicious push‑pull energy that sticks with you long after the final chorus.
As she continues carving out her lane in the indie‑pop universe, ili proves once again that she’s a force — sharp in her songwriting, bold in her visuals, and unmistakably herself. “Tongue Tied” is another glittering gem in her growing catalog.
