“Somebody New” encapsulates the struggle of striving to make a new relationship work only to end up feeling as though it still pales in comparison to a past love. The accompanying video opens on Moreno performing in a studio against a sunny backdrop of palm trees in golden hour, the warm light of the projector bouncing off of him as he sings. It then cuts to footage of the Nashville singer-songwriter gazing lovingly at his girlfriend. Soon enough, we see Moreno has actually been picturing his ex standing in her place.
The song’s lyrics perfectly portray the heartsick, desperate emotions that come with trying (and failing) to get over a past relationship in an effort to move on to a new one. This pain is reflected in Chris’s incredible voice, which remains thick with genuine emotion and passion as the video cuts between scenes from his current and previous relationships. Viewers can sense the tension and distance between Chris and his new partner as the moving track plays behind them. This video addresses the feelings that may linger in the wake of a breakup with an honesty that takes true vulnerability to put forth.
