Dutch, Indie artist PIEN has been making waves in London for some time. Her stunning vocals and her honest, raw songwriting made her a must follow for any music lover, with her career sure to continue to skyrocket.

 PIEN has covered ‘Song for Someone’ during her live shows for a number of years now, however, the idea of giving it a Christmas feel has always been of interest to her. PIEN manages to turn a poignant love song into a nostalgic Christmas memory in song form. The subtle changes to the arrangement, gives it a more Christmassy feel than you may expect from the outset. The gentle melody accompanied by Pien’s velvety, soulful voice combines to create the most stunning arrangement.

A cover is often a daunting prospect for any artist, especially when covering the likes of U2. PIEN has managed to keep the heart of ‘Song for Someone’, while adding her own twist to it. Creating a new and deeply beautiful version of this song. It makes the listener feel cosy and warm, just like a hug. ‘Song for Someone’ makes for the perfect addition to your winter playlists. It is a track I find myself coming back to time and time again.
