Willow’s song mixes “light and dark”

In a press release, Willow discussed “Symptom of Life” and some of her decisions in its composition and music video, which she also directed. “The song has a very beautiful whimsical nature but holds a lot of mystery,” she said. “There’s this beautiful light coming in through the piano, but also this syncopated rhythm of the bass bringing in that mysterious element. A juxtaposition of light and dark.”
