Last day of January saw the release of Rita De Los Angeles’ new single, a folk tune “Keep To Myself”. This song serves two purposes at once – making listeners feel more connected in the face of social anxiety and political disagreements, as well as making people get up and dance.
People are drifting apart, especially now in the post-pandemic era. Political polarization gets in the way of friendships and social anxiety makes things even worse. Rita De Los Angeles feels it all very clearly, and that’s why “Keep To Myself” was born. Through uplifting melodies and dancy rhythm, Rita’s sharp lyrics speak of the importance of connection and sharing troubles.

The need for connection can be read through the lines, as “Keep To Myself” decides to withdraw from interacting out of frustration and shelve the emotions that need sharing. “You can all go to hell” is a hidden “please come to senses, there’s more to life than your political beliefs”, and the needlessly strained friendships are more valuable than ever.
Music has the power to bring people together and realize the deeper connection we need to keep. For Rita, music is as healing as dancing, and she has created a linedance choreography for this song. With 48 counts and 2 walls, this dance is easy for newcomers, and the music video below will show how it’s done exactly. Check it out:
Originally from Los Angeles and now living in Germany, Rita De Los Angeles is a charming musician creating a warm-hearted blend of folk, country, rock and pop with meaningful lyrics. She can often be spotted performing live in Southern California as well as North Rhine-Westphalia, the most populous state of Germany.
