Robert Lane
Fatea Magazine review of Listen In

Thanks to Fatea Magazine for this great review of Listen In.

Born from a writing session with friend Matty Pinfield, with a title inspired by an NCO from his younger days in the Air Training Corps, Listen In is the deeply personal new single from Robert Lane. While originally written almost as a plea to listen to his music and creative endeavours (including his fascinating Podcast Robert Lane's Creative Careers), it soon took on a deeper meaning. The themes of insecurity and inadequacy are still very much there, but with most of the world seemingly failing to listen, this feels very much bigger than one mans' self-doubt. Lane's Only A Flight Away was one of the best releases of 2018, and Listen In is certainly on the same level, and raises the anticipation levels for a new album to breaking point. There is something quite irrepressible about the new track, and not only will you want to Listen In, you'll want to do so repeatedly.

Make a Listen In ultimate mixtape

It’s release day for Listen In! I’m so excited to share this song with the world. It’s rather personal and I’m proud of it (not easy for me to say) I’m asking everyone to make the ultimate mixtape playlist on Spotify/Apple etc. Call it “Listen In” and use my new song Listen In as the first track. Then chose some songs that you love and want the world to hear. Send me a photo or tag me in a post and I'll share your playlist. Prize for my favourite playlist. Thanks!

Pre-save Listen In

Thank you

Here's a bit of background about the song;

When it was recorded it was about asking people to listen in to me and my creativity.  The lyrics explore themes of insecurity and inadequacy about one's place in the world, and I was also using it as a message to yours truly to stop comparing myself to others so much and enjoy what’s happening in the moment.

As we collectively began to go through the last 3 months the song took on a whole new meaning to me. I feel it reflects the fact that we should all listen to each other more as everyone is struggling in their own way through the pandemic and lockdown. It feels like most of the world is on “broadcast” rather than “receive” and we aren’t really seeing or hearing each other in a healthy way.
