Diamond-certified & GRAMMY-nominated songwriter Delacey flexes her exquisite writing chops on the understatedly poignant “One Mississippi” . The dreamy mid-tempo ballad feels achingly real, pointing out the simple details (a sticky tangerine, sipping a Dr. Pepper, withering potted plants) that we paint our everyday lives with and the ways we try to carry on, minute-by-minute, when a rift plagues a relationship. With a reference inspired by hide & seek, Delacey brings to life the anguish of two lovers’ experiencing turbulence and how time can seem to move so slowly when things aren’t right.. “The song initially came to be because of a story my co-writer told me about a song he made up to keep count playing hide and seek with his daughter, Ruthie. It happen to strike a chord with me because I was currently feeling very insecure about my relationship and we decided to tie in the idea of “keeping count” as a way of describing how slow the minutes pass for me when I’m feeling anxious and disconnected.. I usually need distractions of any kind. I suppose writing the song was one of them.” Alongside the song, she released a lyric video that really captures the mood. This track is one of several ramping up to a summer album so much more to come from Delacey in 2023.
