about

San Diego’s Estella Dawn continues to bring the pop classics throughout 2023, this latest release undeniably showcasing the very best of her song writing, production and vocal abilities.
Openly reflecting on all-consuming thoughts of a love gone wrong, ‘Didn’t Occur to You’ emerges with the warmth of a piano-lead and the melancholic rasp and passion of a singer consistently at one with the stories she tells.
Backed by tens of thousands of monthly streams across dozens of original pop hits, with close to 70K followers on TikTok and over 20K on Instagram, Estella Dawn makes light work of captivating modern audiences.
The new single depicts hints of similarity with the likes of Maren Morris, Julian Michaels and Halsey, offering a familiar pop arrangement with a refreshing melodic peak and purity; blending the past and present in line with the infatuated depth of the lyrics.
Releasing Friday, June 16th, simple and lower-toned
verses carve out an effective pathway towards the sublime and softly-euphoric rise of the hook – another faultless pop progression but with a twist of heartfelt delicacy. ‘Didn’t Occur To You’ melts away the noise of the world in favor
of a shared sense of longing and reflection.
Distinctly humble in both design and performance, just two minutes thirty-six in length and holding close to its central melodic and conceptual strength, ‘Didn’t Occur To You’ has the makings of an impactful pop hit, yet also subtly maintains those longer-form threads of influence from hip hop and the singer-songwriter realm; the likes of which help form the unmistakable Estella Dawn writing style.
Beautifully expressed, masterfully captured and softly intoxicating – another gentle yet evocative ear-worm from the unrivaled creative force that is Estella Dawn.

lyrics

I don't know why I can't sleep tonight
I'm always thinking more than I should
I don't know why I left the door unlocked
Guess I hope maybe you'll stop by 
On your way through
But you never do
Call it wishful
Or laughable
We were lovers twice removed
Marked me like a bloodstain didn't you

I bet it didn't occur to you
That I still sit here wondering
Didn't occur to you
That I still reach out for what might have been
Every time I go to call yah
Call yah
Out the blue
Never do
Cuz maybe you don't remember it like I do

I know that I should have moved on from this
But I'll be more honest than you ever could
I keep leaving the lights on
Hoping maybe you'll come home
And switch em off
I feel you in the water
Running through my hair
Like white Tacomas you're everywhere
Loving you was breaking with no time to spare
But I miss the thrill of it all

I bet it didn't occur to you
That I still sit here wondering
Didn't occur to you
That I still reach out for what might have been
Every time I go to call yah
Call yah
Out the blue
Never do
Cuz maybe you don't remember it like I do

Do you remember, remember 
Do you remember, remember

Swear that I've tried moving on
It's been about a year
And I still want you bad
How could you not remember
Please tell me you remember

Didn't occur to you
That I reach out
I reach out, oh
Everytime I go to call yah
Call yah
I never do
No, no
Don't think you remember it like I do
